cheshiremusicman Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I live in Hua-Hin and use a local lady dentist who is extremely good and will NOT push you for extra work. In truth she has told me when I have asked about some treatments that they are not necessary. She speaks excellent English and has a very modern theatre where she is the only dentist in the practice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eindhoven Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 My dental surgeon is in Sri Racha, Chonburi; so no good to you. But excellent. No pain during any operation, including dental implants. Anaesthesia before anaesthesia, so you don't even feel discomfort from the needle. General anaesthesia available for more complicated work. Totally ethical. I can say that without qualification or modification. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rak sa_ngop Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Are dentists working normally in Thailand now or maybe just taking emergency cases? Is it wise to postpone routine dental work until the Covid-19 situation is resolved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1FinickyOne Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I find dentists here to be good, have modern equipment and most importantly, honest... They should have everything here that you have in Finland, but not the Estonian... Chiang Mai has good dentists... and many of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 There are many good de4ntists here. Tooth implants are indeed very expensive here, even in government facilities as the main cost is the prosthesis which is imported. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSF Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I've had good and bad experiences with dentists in Thailand. A few years back I went to a lady dentist in a Sri Racha hospital, after examination she gave me a quote for the treatment, I agreed and we went ahead, when I went to pay the bill I found out the quote was just for her service. The hospital added on use of the surgery, a fee for the nurse/assistant, some charges for materials and other things, pretty well doubling the original quote. And a couple of years later the tooth she treated started thumping, so I paid another dentist 500bt to pull the damn thing and throw it in the rubbish bin.

I'm guessing not much. Two years later? I think that's enough time for you to develop an infection of your own. What does any of that have to do with good and bad experiences?

Are you sure you understood what he said? And are you sure he understood your language? And not everybody with a tattoo is member of the mafia - not even in Estonia.
