This is a very good dentist, I can recommend it 👍 …
Very professional and absolutely amazing on work. Thank you so much 🙏 …
My mom got fillings in her front teeth, and they're beautiful and completely unnoticeable. The doctor was a real sweetheart, always asking if it was painful and whether it was okay. The price was reasonable. We paid 4,500 baht for three light-cured fillings. We came by appointment, and she even served us ahead of schedule.
The doctor was lovely, provided excellent service, and had a very gentle touch. I liked her very much.
The service is very good. I am impressed with this place. I recommend this clinic.
The doctor was lovely and spoke politely, all the reception staff were lovely, and the place was clean.
The doctor is very lovely and kind. She does a great job!
The doctor is lovely. I came to get a dental bridge and crown. The doctor has a gentle hand. The staff are lovely and friendly. I didn't feel scared at all.
Terrible dentistry! I wouldn't advise anyone to go there. My crown was wobbly, I could easily take it off, it just needed to be glued back on. But the rude nurse said they couldn't do it and gave 500 reasons to give me a higher price. I had the problem solved at another dental clinic in 5 minutes.

The poor crown was made by other clinic. She never use our service. She gave us 1 star review because she came walk in and need us to cement the crown back immediately while there were many appointment patients waiting. She has no respect to people. So be careful to deal with her.
The doctor was very helpful and friendly. I recommend this place.
A loved one had four appointments here. Three cavities were treated in one visit, for 1,500 baht each. …
1.200 bhatt for a clean and polish and dentist was very good spent about 45 mins cleaning my teeth and taking good care for me and my wife 10/10 for us great price with great service!

The wait is always short, the doctor is very nice, and you can ask questions directly. The procedure is also quite quick.

The dentist is lovely and gentle. This was my first time getting my teeth whitened here, and I was very impressed. My teeth are much whiter and look great! Thank you so much!
Had a porcelain crown fitted by Dr Mai. Price was as quoted. Very happy with the whole painless process from start to finish. I selected this dentist after reading the reviews online which were mostly positive, also as I needed to get my initial consultation done on a Sunday as I was on holiday. Not sure why some give it a poor rating, maybe there’s a language misunderstanding at the consult?…

Thank you for trusting and using our clinic's services.
Terrible experience. Don’t go! I went to this clinic for a teeth cleaning and whitening. The website clearly stated the price: 3,900 baht for both treatments. When I arrived, they immediately tried to rip me off by saying I should have paid more. Only after showing them the website did they accept the 3,900 baht, but with a 3% surcharge for paying by card. The dentist – the older, shorter man…

n you often see in their photos – was extremely rude and rushed from the start. During the treatment he hummed and made inappropriate jokes about me being Italian. When I asked what they were applying to me (some kind of powder), he rudely replied: “Polishing!!!” The work was done extremely quickly, almost as if they just wanted to get rid of me. The environment did not seem clean at all and the machines used were not disposable (and it is not clear if they were sterilized). At the end of the cleaning I was allowed to look at myself in the mirror, but literally for two seconds: the doctor was visibly annoyed and practically took the mirror out of my hand. Plus, they were whispering to each other in Thai while looking at me, as if I didn't understand, making me feel uncomfortable. At that point I decided not to do the whitening and left. They even asked me for more money than I should have just for the cleaning, but I insisted and in the end I paid the 900 baht that was shown on the website. And finally, to pay by card they sent me to the shop next door. To this day I still don't understand why. Dirty place, rushed treatment, rude dentist and zero professionalism. Avoid it absolutely.

We believe our cleaning service is very professional and high quality. If you found spot of tartars or plaques left (not food particles or color stains),you can come to get your money 900 THB back in full by this week. Before start the treatment, you were agreed package of teeth whitening and cleaning 3900 THB but you changed your mind after dental cleaning done. This is not good but our dentist is very compromise. Our standard dental cleaning costs 900 to 1600 THB and, based on your teeth condition, it costs 1200 THB. Surprisingly, you said you will pay only 900 THB (28 $USD) or pay NOTHING. Our doctor and staffs were disappointed with your behavior but we accepted the money 900 THB to end problem with you. Below link pictures are our price list you mentioned. This is the same you saw yesterday and our website publicly. Everything is clear and we charge only these rates for normal payments in cash. Unlike some other places, sterilization, dental assistant fees, service charges or taxes etc are already included in our prices. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X8yqH2uw7zV7H9iDdTAAnuRgWZ_A2tFG/view?usp=drivesdk https://drive.google.com/file/d/1V5hDjh88n2L-9Dt9M2FXCbZzm9QVEK2M/view?usp=drivesdk
