Hello ! It’s very convenient that I was booked into the clinic in advance and I didn’t have to look for anyone! I came to the dentistry, I was very warmly greeted ☺️ They took me to the doctor, checked everything, took pictures and even immediately filled the tooth! It's nice that they explain everything clearly! And their prices are very affordable for everyone 😊 I recommend

The wisdom teeth extraction was done so fast with utmost care
It is a clean hospital and the wisdom teeth extraction was done so fast with utmost care. The dentist and dental personnel can speak fluent English which is important for most people like I. For wisdom teeth extraction the cost was 20000 baht for 4 teeth( including medication and nurse charge), but it all depends if the teeth has impacted. I would highly recommend the clinic.

Our Dental Crown Installation Techniques: What Suits You Best?

When considering Dental Crown Installation, it’s important to understand the different techniques and which is best suited for you. Here’s a concise comparison of popular options:

Porcelain Crown Installation

This procedure involves fitting a porcelain cap over a tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance.

Pros: Porcelain crowns offer superior aesthetics with a 95% color match to natural teeth. They are more biocompatible than metal-ceramic crowns, reducing allergic reactions.
Cons: These crowns are less durable than zirconia crowns, with a higher risk of chipping. They require more tooth structure removal than zirconia or metal-ceramic options.
Effectiveness: 90% success rate in restoring function and aesthetics for up to 10-15 years.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: Not needed
Best for: Front teeth, cosmetic dentistry, and enamel protection. Ideal for those seeking superior aesthetics.
Prices: Cost of Porcelain crown installation in Thailand from $252

Zirconia Crown Installation

Tooth crown installation involves placing a zirconia cap over a damaged tooth to restore function and appearance.

Pros: High durability and strength, resisting fractures better than porcelain. Offers a 95% survival rate over 5 years, providing superior aesthetics without metal exposure.
Cons: Requires more tooth removal than some alternatives like temporary crowns. May cause wear on opposing teeth due to hardness.
Effectiveness: 95% success rate over 5 years.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: Not needed
Best for: Tooth restoration in visible areas, cavity repair, and improving bite alignment.
Prices: Cost of Zirconia crown installation in Thailand from $475

Dental Crown Replacement

This procedure involves removing an existing crown and fitting a new one for improved function and aesthetics.

Pros: Offers enhanced durability and appearance. Eliminates risks of decay under the crown by up to 30% compared to porcelain crown installation. Faster than metal-ceramic crown procedures, taking less time for adjustments.
Cons: Can be more invasive than temporary crown options. Zirconia crown installation may offer better strength, reducing replacement frequency by 20%.
Effectiveness: Success rate of 95% for functional and aesthetic outcomes.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: Not needed
Best for: Replacing damaged crowns, improving bite alignment, and enhancing smile aesthetics.
Prices: Cost of Dental crown replacement in Thailand from $593

Temporary Crown

A temporary crown is a short-term solution for tooth restoration while waiting for a permanent crown.

Pros: Quick and easy to place, providing immediate protection to the tooth. Offers temporary comfort and functionality with minimal discomfort.
Cons: Not as durable as permanent options, lasting only a few weeks. Can dislodge or wear down easily with frequent use.

Duration: 30-60 minutes
Recovery: Not needed
Best for: Short-term use for tooth decay, cavity repair, and enamel protection.
Prices: Cost of Temporary crown in Thailand from $30

Metal-ceramic crown

A metal-ceramic crown is a dental restoration that combines metal for strength and ceramic for a natural appearance.

Pros: High durability, lasting over 10 years with proper care. Natural-looking aesthetics with ceramic matching tooth color, unlike full metal crowns.
Cons: Metal can cause allergic reactions in some patients. More tooth structure removal needed compared to zirconia crowns.
Effectiveness: Success rate of 95% over 10 years.
Duration: 1-2 hours
Recovery: Not needed
Best for: Back teeth restoration, high bite forces, and long-term durability.

What is the level of medicine in Thailand?

Healthcare is the key development sector of the Thai government. The Thai authorities are convinced that care for the citizens' health should be an absolute priority of state policy and spend about 25 billion baht for healthcare annually.

As a result, 36,673 medical facilities provide excellent medical care in the country. 64 centers in the Kingdom have certificate of JCI (Joint Commission International), the international improver of healthcare quality and safety across the globe. The index of certificates obtained is the largest. To compare, Israel has 20 JCI-accredited facilities, and Germany — only 10 clinics of this type.

What hotel service is provided here?

In the Kingdom of Thailand, hotels of different price ranges and service levels are presented. The level of Thai hotels is comparable to hotels in Tunisia, Morocco or Egypt. Most tourists choose 4 and 5 star hotels with all-inclusive meals. Such hotels have everything for a comfortable stay: varied food, a large well-groomed territory, animation for children and adults. Some hotels have their own water park, which guests can use for free. Budget travelers can afford to book an economical 3-star hotel with half board or no meals at all.

When is the best time to travel to Thailand?

The main advantage of Thai resorts is the long beach season. On the east coast and west coast the climate features are different, so take it into account when planning the trip. The best time to travel is during the cool and dry season between November and early April. A large influx of tourists is in March-May, when the air temperature is +30°C.

Do I need a visa?

For now, the Kingdom of Thailand requires different visa regimens for diverse states. Some foreigners can stay in the country 60 days without visa control, some of them — only 14 days.
