Semi-Emergency Dental Care In Chiang Mai

[hookemlaw]

My friend ran his motorbike into the back of a parked van about an hour ago. Amazingly he's pretty OK except for some chipped teeth.

They're hurting pretty bad, and we assume it's just going to get worse.

Does anyone have recommendations on a dentist (or dental group/hospital) to see?

Chang Mai Ram will see you straight away, but are expensive.

If you are insured go there.

I broke a tooth on the last day of the Songkran holiday and walked to RAM Dental Clinic and they saw me immediately and fixed it right up for a very reasonable price. I love the place.

Codine is very good for relief of pain from toothache. Lanna dental is very good in the old city near Wat Phra Sing.

The pharmacy gave me Tramadol (codeine afaik), but I tried too places and couldn't find anything similar to anbesol.

My first thought for a hospital was Maharaj since I had a good experience there, but I don't know anything about their dental services.

My friend has never left the US before and has only been here two days. Are they likely to have English speaking staff? With the adrenaline rush today I think the scarier part of the experience today was the crowd of Thais gathering around pointing out how much damage he did and trying to talk to him in a language where he only knows how to say "Thank you."

Thanks for the help!

The doctors and dentists at Chiang Mai RAM speak very good English.

(Dentists seem to speak English in all the Dental Clinics as well)
