Pacific Dental Care

Pacific Dental Care is located at 147/5-6 Baan Prompong Condominium, Soi Sukhumvit 39, Watthana District, Bangkok 10110, Thailand, in the upscale Phrom Phong neighborhood of the central Sukhumvit corridor. BTS Phrom Phong station on the Sukhumvit Line is the nearest transit point, within approximately 5 to 15 minutes walking distance depending on the approach route along Soi Sukhumvit 39. The Phrom Phong area is one of Bangkok's most established expatriate residential zones, with a notably large Japanese expatriate community alongside international residents of other nationalities, creating a patient base and service requirement that shapes the clinic's multilingual staffing and international patient protocols.

Pacific Dental Care operates a network of branches across the Bangkok metropolitan area, with additional locations including Big C Supercenter Rama 4, Fortune Town Ratchada in Din Daeng, a Samut Prakan location on Bearing Road, Pathum Thani at TU Dome Building 2, and a Nonthaburi location in the Chaeng Wattana-Pak Kret area. The Sukhumvit 39 clinic serves as the flagship location of the network. Free initial consultations are offered to new patients at all branches.

Clinical Leadership

The clinic was founded by Dr. Surachart Nunbhakdi, who holds a Doctor of Dental Surgery from the Faculty of Dentistry at Mahidol University and brings more than 20 years of experience across state-run and private hospital environments, including a former position as Head of the Dental Division at Praram 9 Hospital in Bangkok. He is fluent in both Thai and English and established Pacific Dental Care to provide a private practice environment combining international clinical standards with the cost accessibility of Thai dental care.

The specialist team includes Dr. Chanchai Womgchuensoontorn, an oral surgeon with German dental training and specialization acquired in Germany, and Dr. Preeda Pungpapong, a general dentist who completed an ITI (International Team for Implantology) fellowship in North Carolina, bringing a North American evidence-based implant protocol to the practice. The broader clinical team of more than 20 dental professionals covers prosthodontics, periodontics, oral surgery, orthodontics, and general dentistry. Board certifications across the team include credentials from American, European, and Japanese dental institutions.

Implant Dentistry

Dental implant treatment is offered under the protocol knowledge brought by Dr. Preeda's ITI fellowship training, one of the leading internationally recognized postgraduate programs in implant dentistry. Single-tooth implants, multiple-implant cases, and full prosthetic rehabilitation on implants are available. The ITI fellowship framework emphasizes evidence-based indications for implant placement, bone assessment, and prosthetic planning. Implant cases are assessed and planned in consultation before treatment begins, with imaging used to evaluate bone quality and quantity at the proposed implant sites.

Oral Surgery

Oral surgery services are led by Dr. Chanchai, whose German specialist training supports complex extraction cases, surgical wisdom tooth removal, and procedures requiring advanced surgical technique beyond routine extraction. German dental training programs are internationally recognized for their rigorous academic and practical standards, particularly in oral surgery and maxillofacial procedures. For patients requiring surgical dental work, the availability of a German-trained oral surgeon within the same clinic removes the need for specialist referral to another provider.

Orthodontics and Cosmetic Dentistry

Conventional fixed braces and Invisalign clear aligner therapy are available for tooth alignment correction across different severity and complexity levels. Porcelain veneers, dental crowns, bridges, and inlays and onlays cover restorative and cosmetic work on individual teeth. Professional teeth whitening and bleaching address shade discoloration in natural enamel. Prosthodontic dentures, full and partial, provide removable tooth replacement for patients who have lost multiple teeth. Root canal therapy and endodontic treatment preserve infected or inflamed teeth. Periodontal care covers scaling, root planing, and gum disease management. Pediatric dental services are available for younger patients, and custom sports mouthguards are fabricated for athletes who need occlusal protection during contact sports.

TMJ and Occlusal Treatment

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction treatment is offered for patients experiencing jaw pain, clicking, or limited jaw opening related to joint or muscle dysfunction. Bruxism management addresses teeth grinding and clenching through customized occlusal splints that protect the tooth surfaces and reduce pressure on the TMJ. These specialized services address conditions that general dental clinics may not routinely provide, making Pacific Dental Care a suitable option for patients presenting with complex bite or jaw pain presentations alongside their routine dental needs.

International Patient Services and Hours

English-speaking staff are available throughout all departments, and Japanese translators are on-site to serve the Japanese expatriate and visitor population in the Phrom Phong area. The clinic understands international insurance requirements and accepts credit card payment. Local accommodation recommendations are available for out-of-town patients, and patient transfer organization between clinic and accommodation is offered. Pacific Dental Care is open Monday through Thursday and on Sunday from 9:30 in the morning to 8:30 in the evening, and on Friday and Saturday from 9:30 in the morning to 5:30 in the afternoon. The extended weekday and Sunday evening hours make the clinic accessible for patients whose professional or travel schedules restrict daytime availability.
