Here on holiday and just had an appointment the other day for a routine cleaning. Front desk staff and dentist were friendly, prompt, professional, and provided excellent service. Definitely recommend if you’re staying in Thonglor!

The treatment is up to standard. The doctor is very attentive. The equipment is new, modern, and clean. The clinic has a great atmosphere. The staff are friendly and polite. The location is convenient.
Great service, Lhea at front desk was super kind and friendly, the endontist (for root canals and crowns) is one of the best worldwide with lots of experience and master certificate. Pleasant experience no complaints you pay for what you get :)

Fantastic dentist,made an appointment for teeth cleaning was able to be seen the next day, compared to Ireland this is unheard of. Spotless modern premises with professional staff. The cleaning itself was very thorough and comprehensive. I cannot recommend it highly enough

Thank you so much, David! We’re so glad to hear you were happy with the care and service you received. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to see you again on your next visit to Thailand! 💙 …
I came for help with a strong tooth pain, paid 1250 thb and didn’t even see the doctor :( This clinic is pretty professional and not bad for sure, but you must know that their approach is commercial and not clinical. I paid 1000 thb for x ray of all my teeth that I didn’t even need (we made another one after) and then met a doctor in a meeting room (not dental cabinet) who acted like a sales…
Read the rest of this review
es manager showing me the website presentation, discuss my x ray and give me a quote for 35000 thb without even asking me to open my mouth. The lady at the front desk is very nice but obviously couldn’t help with the tooth pain. Next day I got help in another clinic 🤍 If you want fancy new smile this clinic can definitely help but if you’re seeking for immediate help this place is to be avoided for sure :( I’m not calling this place bad and only sharing my experience, the clinic has all rights to explain the situation in this thread, but unfortunately it doesn’t change the fact that no help was received sorry 🙏

Thank you for sharing your feedback. While we welcome all patient experiences — both positive and critical — we believe it’s important to address and correct false or misleading claims. You were not ignored, and you were certainly seen by a qualified doctor — in fact, by our head dentist, who personally reviewed your case with input from a root canal specialist. To suggest that you “didn’t even see a doctor” — or that you were speaking with a salesperson — is simply untrue. What you experienced was a comprehensive consultation, where our doctor took the time to review your x-rays, explain the findings, and present all appropriate treatment options. This is not sales — this is responsible, ethical healthcare. We believe every patient deserves to fully understand their condition and options before making decisions, and that’s exactly what we provided. The panoramic x-ray (OPG) you received was not unnecessary — it was a medically required diagnostic tool. It helped identify root canal complications, which were later confirmed by our specialist. Without this diagnostic process, any treatment would have been based on guesswork — something we never allow in our clinic. You specifically requested an apicoectomy, but our clinical team determined that this was not the most appropriate or effective treatment for your condition. As a professional dental clinic, we do not perform procedures simply because they are requested. We are obligated to recommend what is safest and most effective, even if that means declining a procedure that a patient believes they need. The quote you received was based entirely on the necessary treatment identified through examination and x-rays. It was provided upfront, transparently, so you could make an informed decision — not as a sales tactic. You also asked about pricing prior to your visit. Please note that our website contains the most accurate and up-to-date information about our services, including general pricing and treatment details. We keep it current specifically to help patients understand what to expect before they arrive — and what you were shown during your consultation simply reflected that same transparent information. While we’re glad to hear you found relief elsewhere, it’s not accurate to claim you received “no help.” You were seen, diagnosed, and advised by qualified professionals who acted in your best medical interest. That may not have aligned with your expectations, but it does not mean your concerns were dismissed or ignored. At SmileBox, we are committed to professional ethics and patient safety. We do not take shortcuts, we do not upsell unnecessary treatments, and we will always prioritize your long-term oral health over temporary fixes. Sharing your personal experience is your right — but misrepresenting what occurred can be damaging and is not acceptable.
I was really impressed with Dr. Palawat Laoharungpisit. He was very professional and talked me through each step he would take to save my implant after it got infected ( I’d already had 2 failed ones in Australia and Bali ) he didn’t just …

Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad you were happy with our staff, service, and location. We look forward to welcoming you again!
I just had extraction of my 2 wisdom teeth. The staff are phenomenal, from Reception, radiology, assistants, and Dr. Orange. She made me feel at ease and comfortable during the entire process, given that it's my 1st time for an extraction. She explained the procedure thoroughly. I didn't feel any pain at all during the procedure.

Fuss free, very friendly staff and professional dentist. Very lovely waiting area and treatment rooms. I will definitely come back again.
If I could give this clinic 6 stars, I would. I'm always very careful when choosing a dental clinic. When I chose this clinic, I wasn't expecting a "wow" effect, but it happened. I was so pleased with the clinic that I would recommend it to …
