  1. Hi ive been offered a job in Vietnam, the only problem is my wife has two guinea pigs, all the importing pets articles are all talking about cats and dogs and vaccination certificates. I know its a long shot but does anyone know the regulations for taking small creatures into vietnam (ones that dont have rabies) guinea pigs are classed as exotic animals in Thailand where I am at the moment thanks, I presume you need some sort of import licence or something, but not sure how they could be considered dangerous. Im considering travelling overland through laos into vietnam as its safer for them
  2. Yeah, but its hard to that when they leave something unfinished its taken 5 visits to be ok with it. I wouldnt call thailand a strange country but id never been to the dentist I just used a sonic toothbrush and took good care of them. ironically it was some dodgy larb moo at work that cracked my tooth ... ive never eaten there since
  3. I'm at 12,000 now .. i wouldnt worry it will go over 20,000 by my next visit ... anyway thanks for the info just wanted to make sure it wasnt wierd as most cases state its done in two visits, However I still believe leaving an unfilled tooth under a temp crown was not good practise when you fill it the next visit what was the point, obviously an unfilled tooth was going to be sensitive and it was. Only with this third (dare i say it third temporary crown) has the area returned to normal, mainly due to this not filling of the tooth, I was worried it had gotten infected but apparently not. What is interesting is that the first two temp crowns would pop out if i flossed, this one does not .... I
  4. yes its isaan, they have the tech and lots of customers so i dont think theres a problem with them though some of her treatments such as high tech braces are eye wateringly expensive. I'm, just slightly worried im being shined on into excess treatments to make more money, the first temp crown without replacing the filling wasnt necessary at all . Why not refill first and save me the pain and the second temp crown which was unnessary. As far as im feeling now all is good, I have what looks like a crown in my mouth and no pain and my tooth looks better than before
  5. its been mounted two weeks ago, he basically pushed it in and was using a lot of pressure to get it snug, there wasn't any root canal and now the pain has gone. I'm in isaan is cheap, but as always theres a language barrier so your never 100% what is going on .. however according to my research even before it started you come in, they measure you for your crown put in a temporary crown and then put in the real one the next visit, not 6 visits ....
  6. Hi folks, I recently cracked a tooth and my dentist recommended a crown and as the side of it was sheered off it was unfillable so I went with it. My query is a bit wierd. i've currently been there five times and my next will be my 6th, the first time, the filling fell out and she put a temporary crown on without replacing the filling price 3400 baht. So I was basically in agony through this thin temporary crown as there was a big gap in my teeth, The second time she replaced the filling, put a new temporary crown on and took a 3D scan of the tooth and said it would be two weeks until the crown would be ready price 3000 baht, (my tooth was painful for these two weeks I was on 800mg of ibruphropen every day) the next time there were at least two people involved (you can't see anything in the dentist as they put this thing over your face so only your teeth are visible) Someone else was pushing (what I thought was the crown into place) then it has to be sanded down in the mouth as it was to high (it always to high each time) price 4700 baht this time I was then told to go back in two weeks to "check" I presumed it was ok, During this process they told me the actual crown would be installed in one month (I assumed the last visit was the crown as they actively shaped it to look like a tooth with her tools. The tooth ached for a week due to sensitivity but is now fine under whatever is covering it. I should add I also got a scale and polish which was also more expensive than the normal price at 900 baht but i needed that. Does this seem wierd to anyone, in my opinion why wasnt the filling replaced the first time, it fell out right in front of their eyes causing me needless pain, then they did a 3d scan and two weeks later fits something which should have been the crown, but then two weeks later says it wasn't I've never heard of a crown taking 6 visits or two months to process Whats going on? (these prices may or may not seem low to you, but they are standard around here, but I'm not rich just your average joe working on a relatively low income and Im getting married and have a baby on the way, so every penny counts)
  7. hi folks my filipino gf and I will shortly be getting married. I am employed with a non b visa and I want to convert my girlfriends non b to a non o based on marriage. I'd like a list of documents you need to do this, I have asked immigration but I'm not getting an answer at the moment anyway, (due to language barriers) a friend of mine told me my employer needs to prepare some documents but we have a new paperwork woman who doesn't really speak English so any help I can give her the better it is if its a requirement. Does anyone know the documents needed by immigration to make this go smoothly. I'm presuming house contract, copies of every page of passport, now I did find this but im not sure its the right document as it only mentions tourist, transit visas or exempt entries at the start maybe someone can enlighten me https://www.immigration.go.th/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/5.WORKING-AS-TEACHER-IN-THAILAND-NON-O.pdf any help appreciated
