georgegeorgia Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) My old dentist has moved so today walking past the umpteen dental clinics in south pattaya i go into one to be qouted 700 b for a teeth clean, smile clinic a double shop ,2nd dentist shophouse, past cucumber restaurant, a large girl sits as the receptionist. so i went in only to have this young guy being rough , i had to tell him about it, 10 minutes later the bill comes to 1200 baht,now i told him thars not what they qouted on reception,he says that he put whitening on my teeth , i didnt ask for that i said,the reception told me 700b, she has it wrong he said,then started screaming like a ladyboy, you must psy,you must pay now !! Rather than argue,I paid but reluctantly,he threatened to call police,who were outside doing traffic stops,he seemed to be a ladyboy, i paid the 1200 baht for about 8 minute visit ,way less than 10 minutes, I used to pay 500-700 baht for a teeth clean , he didnt even use the floss ,used only the drilling machine etc, some toothpaste,electrcic toothbrush all in less than 10 minutes , is this now a normal rate,if it is i will just use my own countrys dentist even though im psying more i know they take about 20-30 minutes to do a proper clean,this one took about 8 minutes and still never used floss charged 1200 b about $52 Australian what normal price do u pay,obviously its gone up ,i dont mind paying 1200 b if he done a good job say took 20 minutes with flossing etc but using a electrcic toothbrush i coild of done it myself , he didnt bother doing in between my teeth,oh well ripped off again , never again with these dentists they dont seem to care i used to have a good dentist there years ago but seems he is gone now just stick to dentists in my own country, and most times you are,this is the se cond dentist on the left as you go past cucumber, double shophouse with a large girl on reception. is it Smile clinic, i think they all seem to be smile?

chippendale Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 You let a ladyboy root around in your mouth? 1200 Baht is a bit much for a 10 minute quickie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveK Posted August 29, 2018 Share Posted August 29, 2018 (edited) Well that's still pretty reasonable. I don't think it was the world's worst rip off. I had a check up in the UK which took about 2 minutes and cost me almost 25 quid. Edited August 29, 2018 by pr9spk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lacessit Posted September 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2018 I tend to favour female dentists here. They are gentler and explain what they are doing. Many of the male dentists here are arrogant sods, just like the doctors. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did you pay more than the agreed price? Do you cave in to everyone that ups their price after the event?

samsensam Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Bar fines must be a total nightmare for you. why do you assume the OP is a sex tourist? not everyone needs to pay a female to be their friend/gf/wife 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henryford Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I made the mistake of going to one of the dentists opposite Tukcom (can't remember the name) and got charged 1200 as well. I normally go to Hollywood Soi Lengee and the price is 6-700. I was tempted to tell them to stuff it but as was already in the chair went ahead. Would never go to any of these again.

The sight of any ladyboy disturbs me. If I were the OP I would've run out of the dental clinic as soon as the ladyboy entered the room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post soistalker Posted September 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) Ladyboys are mentally disturbed homosexual men who like to dress up as woman, and are never to be trusted. Why you would ever interact with one, let alone let them touch you or work on your teeth, is the absurd part. Everyone should go back to their own country every year or year and a half for medical, dental, and to keep in touch with family. If not, your life expectancy drops to the level of the country you are living in. ...even lower if you live in a condo on a high floor with a Thai woman.

BestB Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 It’s actually more common than one would think . The very famous and highly recommended dental smile on 3 road. advertised price 700 baht , went and got mine done. 900 please ? 900 I asked , you have advertised price 700. yes but your teeth very dirty so it’s 900. You did not inform me of higher price and did not get my consent response an idiotic smile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
