Dental Care

Can anyone advise me on whether Udon Government Hospital or the Military Hospital has a weekday morning Dental Clinic?

Extra points will be allotted if anyone is able to rate them - on both knowledge and gentleness.

Caducus, I took my wife to the Military Hospital nearly 10 years ago, and all the dentist were interns; however, the price was right and they did a good job on a filling.

While on the subject, I am in need of a three-tooth bridge, and I don't have a regular dentist who I would trust to do a good job. I also don't want to go to someone who will rip me off. Can anyone recommend a dentist with whom they have had firsthand experience in fitting this type of denture? It's really hard to get a firm estimate since the price usually changes once they get you in the chair and concoct other ways to extract money from the patient. For example, saying one needs a root canal before fitting the denture when it may truly not be needed. For this reason, it is imperative to find a dentist who can be trusted. Any comments/suggestions/recommendation will be greatly appreciated.

Semperfiguy.

Thanks for your recommendation - your wife's problem was much the same as mine is now.

A month or so back I was at the military hospital with an ear problem, and have nothing but praise for their service.

I take the drive down to Pattaya, its well worth it, I see Dr Warin, Dental Care Centre, 038415429. Google him to get the reviews, highly regarded. Example 6 months ago I had to get my two front teeth out, total cost for dentures and removal of teeth was 2,100 baht.
