I had a wonderful experience with Dentist Joy. I went in for a dental cleaning and will be getting a splint done with them as well. From the moment I arrived, the service was warm, welcoming, and highly professional. Dentist Joy was incredibly thorough, gentle, and explained everything clearly. The clinic is clean and well-organized, and you can tell they genuinely care about their patients. I…

I was initially happy with Dental Joy until I wasn't. Her implants failed and her after care was.. Oh well I've got your $34,000 and I don't care now.
Reply from the clinic

Dear Ms. Deb Blackwell, We are truly sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction and disappointment. At DentalJoy, we take pride in the quality of our work and the responsibility we have to our patients, both local and international. Implant dentistry is a complex treatment that carries certain limitations and risks, which we always carefully explain during consultation, during the treatment and follow-up. We strive to provide thorough aftercare and support to all our patients. However, for overseas patients, continuous follow-up and immediate treatment response can be challenging without your return visits or updates. Please be assured that your case has never been ignored. We remain open to reviewing your situation again when you come in Phuket Thailand. We are here with full transparency and professionalism. Kindly contact our team directly so we can better understand your concerns and explore an appropriate resolution. Best Regards, DentalJoy Team

Extremely disappointing. Expensive crown (cost: $1500aud) fell out after 3 weeks. My father recently went to Dr Joy’s clinic to have a crown amongst other things done. Yesterday eating a vitamin gummy, the crown fell out. When he contact the clinic for a resolution he was told ‘too bad you signed a waiver’ and you need to come back to have it fixed. He will now have to pay for the service again in…

n Australia. What’s the most disappointing is that our entire family (plus extended family and friends) has had services there from our recommendation. We simply asked for a refund of the service and we’re told we could have a credit towards the next service. Safe to say, we will not be coming back to this clinic. We will also sharing with all family and friends of this terrible experience.

Reply from the clinic

Dear Ms.Kate, Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear about your father’s experience, but we would like to clarify a few important points: 1.Incorrect Price Mentioned: The crown your father received cost approximately 712 AUD, not 1500 AUD as stated in your review. The total cost of treatment done with us is around 1,484 AUD which is 31,200 THB which includes the crown, deep cleaning, Panoramic x-ray, composite onlay, etc. which you can review from the receipt we provided for every payment made. 2.Cause of the Issue: It can happen sometimes. The failure of cementation is multifactorial such as chewing sticky or hard substances like gummies or chewing gum which can be resolved by re-cementation of the existing crown. 3.Patient Agreement: The treatment warranty is covered in Phuket Thailand as we informed your father in Patient Agreement before the treatment which clearly outlines our policies. This includes the fact that our materials and methods are specific to our clinic in Patong, Phuket. 4.Resolution Offered: While we cannot provide refunds, because that crown can be fixed by re-cementation, we have offered to subsidize the treatment covered by sending us the expense receipt and we will keep the money as credit for the treatment in the future. We always aim to treat our patients with honesty and care. It’s unfortunate that this situation has caused frustration, but we ask that public reviews reflect accurate information to avoid misleading others. We wish your father the best in his dental care journey. Sincerely, DentalJoy Team

Monika Polsen via Google 5.0 out of 5
I had a fantastic experience at Dental Joy, the staff were very friendly and Dr Joy was very thorough whilst providing an exceptional service. I am very satisfied with the way my teeth look now, as they look very natural and feel a lot more comfortable as porcelain veneers then the previous composite ones that I had. I will be back in the near future for any additional services required.

Amazing, having gone to sea smile for the last decade. After being lied to and ripped off by sea smile I’m so happy I changed to dental joy, they are 1000 times better. Having begun my process of my veneers with sea smile i’m so happy i changed to a dentist i could trust to finish the process. Reliable ✔️ time efficient ✔️ trust worthy ✔️

The clinic is a very professional and sterile environment. The zoom whitening procedure was explained to me thoroughly beforehand. All the team there are friendly and make you feel at ease.

My husband and I had a lovely experience at DentalJoy. I had a very thorough clean, think the best I've ever had! We also both had Zoom teeth whitening.

Kyle Lockwood via Google 5.0 out of 5
I am very happy with Dr. Joy and her amazing team. I’ve always had dental anxiety and needed quite a bit of work done—three root canals, three crowns, and teeth whitening. In Australia, this would’ve cost over $20,000. Instead, I made two trips to Phuket and had everything done for around $7,000, including (admittedly discounted) flights, accommodation, and even some spending money! Despite a…

a few scary moments, Dr. Joy made me feel completely at ease—She’s gentle, professional, and genuinely cares about her patients. I also had teeth whitening done by her lovely assistant and I’m absolutely thrilled with the results. I’ve had so many compliments from friends and family on my smile! I will say that one tooth couldn’t be saved—her Endodontist started a root canal but discovered a vertical split that wasn’t visible on X-rays. What truly impressed me was that the root canal was completed but I wasn’t charged for that appointment. It was such a kind and thoughtful gesture, and it really showed the integrity of Dr. Joy and her team. A special thank you to Michelle at reception—she’s fantastic! She made organising and rescheduling appointments so easy, and even helped work around my sightseeing plans. If you’re an Aussie thinking about getting dental work done in Phuket, I highly recommend Dr. Joy and her team. ขอบคุณมาก :)

A very nice and clinically clean clinic, in quiet surroundings. The staff are skilled and careful, with full focus on the patient.

Everything is explained in a friendly tone and understandable English. There are prices for…
