Not surprised that as usual Italian-Thai won the "bidding".  We all know who has the majority shares in that company so hence no surprise.

Cannot be shinawatra :-)

Still wondering why they put carpet in any hotel room knowing how stinky it will be after few years...

But why do they need to put a cap or crown on the tooth and not just fill it like a decay ?

They have to cut down into the tooth to remove the root so there is not enough structure remaining to fill and still meet other tooth as filling material is not strong enough.

 

 

 

 

Ignorant response.  The root is never removed during a root canal treatment.  Drilling is done only to provide access into the canal system to properly clean out and fill.  The only additional drilling would be to remove decay and any old restorations.  A determination is then made regarding the need for a crown based on the amount of remaining sound tooth structure, occlusal function, and financial need of the dentist.  Decades of research shows us that a crown does not strengthen the tooth.  Similarly a post or pin does not strengthen the tooth.  They are placed only when there is not enough sound tooth structure to hold the buildup material. A specialist will probably provide a better end result for root canal treatment but a specialist is NOT necessary for most teeth.  You will still have to return to the general dentist for any restorative treatment.

 

You would all be well advised not to pay much attention to the uninformed opinions on boards like this, including any MD's.  For better or worse you are going to have to rely on your dentist for technical details like this.  You must just find a dentist that you feel comfortable with.  Trust you gut.  That is about the best advice I can give anyone. here unfortunately.  Wish I could help more.

I think that you are wrong. Most people know nothing and don't want to know anything. I will also not trust greedy dentists that all have a car almost as expensive as mines !

How big is the waterfall and the "river" ? 

With few millions I already care nothing and respect nobody, so I can imagine what I would be with few billions...

Better not !

You will need both the blue book and the chanote since the blue will not have your name in it.

If you got a yellow house book based upon your blue book it would show your name in it.

Hello, can I know how to get the yellow book ?

One of the most challenging issues is bread/ bread alternative ( yet to find anything approaching low carb bread, most of it, even the more exotic European styles are so full of sugar that the taste alone is abominable to anyone on no sugar).

So I make my own, 'bread' and muffins, usually following ketoking and others on YouTube ( simple ingredients, all readily available, many microwaveable). 

So you can make special bread for keto diet ?

Hello, are you happy with your keto diet ? Thanks.

No reason to visit the hospital if you have a fever and a flu .  For other symptoms like an infection , yes .  

 

I was unlucky to catch the swine flu a few years ago , it was just a really bad flu but drinking a lot of fluid and stay in bed for 10 days I was 100% fit again , only medication I took was headache tablets. 

 

 

Yes, but maybe you understand that many people need to work everyday, flu or not.

So to reduce the chance that the  sickness lasts long, they eat antibiotics. Cheap and we don't care what the self-called experts are saying.

Hi kuma and yes there was an additional cost of the installation of an all ceramic crown on the tooth that I had the root canal performed at St. Louis hospital for 7,820 baht . It first required a post installed in the tooth which was a charge of 2,100 baht. Then I had the all ceramic crown added which was an additional 14,000 baht. So the root canal, post and all ceramic crown all total was 23,920 baht for everything complete. I will say I am very satisfied with all the work done by the endodontist and also my dentist who is also my implant specialist Dr. Pokpong Amornvit, DDS, MS at The S Sathorn Clinic Soi Saunplu 8, Sathorn Thai Road Phone 02287-4922. Dr. Pokpong has also done implants for me, which have cost 45,000 baht each total for everything including the titanium implant and zirconia crowns. The process took 90 days total from implant to crown.

Thank you, now we know that stlouis is far to be the best priced places for dentist.

18000 for root canal + crown at some of the best dental clinics in Thailand is what it usually costs.

Who cares? I don't drink wine in Thailand,  because the locally-produced stuff is terrible. The imported stuff is no better - most countries are sending Thailand the rubbish they can't sell in their own country. Then add in transport - even the best imported wines are ruined due to vibration and temperature changes.

Better to stick to whisky and local beer. If I want to drink wine, I'll drink it in Australia.

Each his low so life :-)

I bought a run down coffee shop in Bangkok for me and my Thai wife, invested time and money in it and knew the risk involved, unfortunately I could not bear life in Thailand anymore and have returned home, she of course has the business now but you pays your money and you take the chance. Like anything in life you do what you feel is right and run with it you must remember you are in an alien environment with pros and cons, after 2 years I decided to get out, better the rat race you know but I would not discourage anyone from having a go it just was not for me.

Another champion opening a business without even knowing the country well and knowing if he will like to stay here long term. People are so weird...

Do you know if an implant will last longer than root canal and cap ?

root canal + cap seems to cost around 15000

implant around 50000 ?

Is it correct ?

Lazada gives you the best choice. Nu finish will last six months just don't get it on the plastic trim. Our big c sells it for 800baht a bottle. Otherwise megiures ultimate spray or paste is a good choice.

Meguiars seems not bad yes, anybody else can confirm ?

Are Chemical guys products better ?

Also interested, but how difficult it must be to give up carbs !!!

You can get 1 litre of pretty good wine anywhere in Europe for 100thb .... here they pay their staff peanuts and sell you the crap for 300thb++

Yes it's true, but how many people buy their shiiitttliquid ?

But why do they need to put a cap or crown on the tooth and not just fill it like a decay ?

Have you seen cops roadblock on this road or is it safe ?

That's JJ mall but it seems they will never finish the renovation. One day there will be constructionmaterial falling onto the market.

No, JJmall has always been opened and is still ok.

It's a new one that has never been finished.

And what about the new mall at Chatuchak market ? It will never be finished ?

Reason #541 never to buy in Thailand

Reason #541 never to buy in Thailand if you are to stupid to buy smartly.

I own properties all over Thailand and they will never be infested by anything.

I really wonder how can people be stupid enough to feed these rats ?

Call it disgusting, no argument there. I still see that if a court case can force her to pay then its fair.. otherwise not.. and using article 44 for it is just discusting / unfair. I see enough grounds for the court case and compensation, let the judges have their say NOT Prayut. 

As if judges had an opinion !

Their only opinion is the one that prayass tell them to have.

I would call this persecution.

I wonder why the complete shinawatra family does not definitively leave with pest infested country.
