How to Prepare for Dental Work in Thailand

Planning ahead ensures a smooth experience from consultation to recovery.

1. Research Your Options
Decide which treatment you need, then request a consultation. We help match you with a trusted clinic based on your case and timeline.

2. Get a Treatment Plan
Many clinics can provide an initial plan and quote based on photos, X-rays, or a description of your issue—even before you travel.

3. Book in Advance
Secure your appointments ahead of your trip to avoid last-minute surprises. If you're combining travel and treatment, try to leave buffer days for recovery.

4. Bring Medical/Dental Records
Previous X-rays, dental history, or allergy information can be helpful, especially for complex procedures.

5. Consider Travel Insurance with Medical Coverage
While rare, if any issues arise, it’s helpful to have peace of mind.

What Happens After Your Dental Procedure?

Many dental procedures—like cleanings, whitening, and fillings—don’t require follow-up. For more advanced care (e.g. implants, braces, smile makeovers), Thai clinics are well-equipped to support you through and after your treatment.

Post-treatment support includes:

  • Written aftercare instructions

  • Digital scans or records for your home dentist

  • Remote follow-up via email or video

  • Extra aligners or retainers shipped internationally (for orthodontics)

  • Touch-up or check-in visits if you’re staying longer

Thailand’s clinics understand the needs of traveling patients and make aftercare as stress-free as possible.
