passingthru69 Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Well I'm going to be back in LOS in Dec. I was wondering if any one has any suggestions about a good place to get work done. Mainly looking at having to get dentures. I would like the states,but never in one spot long enough. Any ideas? Family house in Ratchaburi.

bust Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Always recommend these guys. http://www.thantakit.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
checkbin Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Try Asavanant Dental Clinic on the corner of Sukhumvit & Thonglor (suk Soi 55). Much more up to speed with modern techniques than the Bangkok Dental Hospital or Bumrungrad; most of the clinicians have trained in the US, UK or Europe. There's a web-site you can use to shoot enquiries at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manaomaiminam Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I use Asavanant as well for myself and family. Facilities are probably better than most in any country, certainly better than my dentist in USA. All work has been excellent and painless. I believe they have prices posted on their website as well as background of their dentists: www.asavanant.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownFox77 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Think you have plenty good options. I've been staying with Silom Dental now for several years - they're a clinic of specialists all under one roof. My (USA) Dentist was actually impressed with the work they've done for me.

Torneyboy Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 I found the Dental Clinic in the CP Tower level two was very good ..i used them two weeks ago and can recommend them. My wife suggests Bangkok hospital for dental as well.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashiling Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 I've been to Asavanant and Thatakit. I would recommend Thantakit. Asavanant is good too and a little cheaper. But Thantakit seems to me a little bit better. One thing i found with the Thai dentists is that they will do the work you ask them to do, but tend not to tell you what you need to have done. So if you have a tooth that hurts they will fix it, but if you need a crown (doesn't hurt) they won't mention it. In any case the thai dentist i've used were so much less expensive that i could justify a trip to the Kingdom, end up spending less, and have a ton of fun. Thantakit is an easy walk from petchaburi BTS and there is a great little theraputic masssage place one block east. early afternoon deal only 150B for an hour! If you walk you will also pass where the infamous Siam Coffee shop/Mona Lisa massage used to be, recently torn down. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passingthru69 Posted November 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Thanks all for the replies. My wife is trying to get me to go to the local dentist near the family house. I just worry about the languge issue. My Thai. is real limited. Her english fairly good, but I worry.. I am planning on having all my teeth just pulled and get dentures.. Am kinda looking at implants,but the cost is putting me off. I need to see if my dental insurance would cover the work.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shygye Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Maybe you should get the opinion of an oral surgeon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
