    Hey all. I'm here in USA. After months of pain and sensitivity, per my local dentist, I just had two split teeth extracted. Told him my intentions to have implants performed in Bangkok. This video and additional research convinced me to contact Edelweiss Dental House. Thank you, Chris! Over the past month, the folks at Edelweiss Dental House have been awesome answering my detailed questions from here in USA. Just booked my flights for Phase 1 of the implants. Then, a few months later, I have a great excuse to return to lovely Thailand for a second time for Phase 2. The cost of two implants, transportation, accommodations, food and even money for entertainment while in Thailand and I'll STILL be saving about $4,000 USD by having the work done in The Land of Smiles. Just hope my smile will be worthy. I'll report back about my experience. Great channel!

      Update: Had Phase 1 of implants to two lower rear teeth performed on Oct 25th by Edelweiss Dental House. The place is like a futuristic spa. Wow. Sorry to sound judgey but so many dental offices in the states feel like they're stuck in the '60's-70's era, design-wise. From the moment you walk in to the moment you leave, you are cared for. Sweet, smiley staff. Comfortable environment. No long waiting. Procedure went well. Only issue was keeping my mouth open for so long. Upon request, doc gave me a bite block to assist. Def recommended. They provided supplies for recovery (a few days which were easy due to being distracted by being in Thailand). Returned 9 days later to have stitches removed. Definitely plan extra time in your trip so everything can be handled in one trip. Next, I will return in Feb/Mar for Phase 2. During this next trip, plan to have Phase 1 implants installed for two upper teeth (which also split from grinding my teeth at night). So, in total with FOUR implants, total cost in USA, with bone grafts, xrays and CT scans, would likely be at least $24k, depending on location. Looks like I will pay about 25%-33% of that amount for the dental care. Add in costs to travel (three trips to Thailand - poor me!) and I'm probably at about $18k total (dental care and travel). Save ~$5k-7k and get to spend nearly three months in Thailand. Hmm. Did I forget to thank Chris Parker? Thank you Thailand too! Khop khun mak krab! 🙏🏻

    Had a check up in the UK in February this year, was told I needed 1 actual filling and 9 other teeth that needed filling between the gum and teeth at the back, quoted £1,200. Researched dentists in Bangkok and booked an appointment for early June with a practice in Sukhumvit Soi 5. I sent the x-ray and photos prior to the appointment. On the day they did a quick inspection and confirmed only 1 filling and 5 other teeth needed filling. They were so professional and the work was carried out in 2 visits for 8,600 THB approximately £220. I was so impressed with the ladies at reception, how they deal with patients and the dentist herself was amazing.

Prices compared to USA are 15 cents on dollar and it’s the best clinic I’ve ever been. I had 7 visits in February and got 4 scheduled this time over 2 weeks. I’m staying at Adelphi Grande hotel in Bangkok which is on sukhumvit and is great for tourism. I’m 10 miles from clinic and after using Bolt, I found a driver that charges me $10 per hour for driving and tourist visits and great dining experiences.

      With your Invisalign treatment, how often did you need to go back to Edelweiss for checkup/adjustment? Did they give you the entire set of aligner trays or did you have to go back every few months to get new aligners? I'm just curious because I don't live in Thailand, but I could go there every few months if I needed to. I did the Smile Direct treatment in the US a few years ago, but it was not good. It was cheaper than Invisalign, but I got what I paid for, which wasn't much, and now I am back to my crooked overcrowded teeth. Thanks for sharing your experience with everyone!

    Great to see an informative video that has a really good outcome for the business being filmed. I can imagine that they may have been sceptical of allowing an outsider filming their business at first, but then seeing how much extra business your videos are creating for them is the priceless. They're getting free targeted advertising. I also love how transparent they are. They hide nothing. I have certainly wondered about costing a quality tooth alignment in Thailand against what I would pay in the Uk. If my maths are correct, I'd save about £1200-£1500 on treatment by having it done there. To me, that equates to a return flight ticket + £500-£800 towards my accommodation. The cost saving would pay for 3/4 of my flight and accommodation for a month.

    Smaller jobs like cleaning,, fillings, x-Ray etc. is certainly cheaper in Thailand. However …..I got 6 implants (US Biohorizon) done in Costa Rica and I paid 15% less than what it would have cost me in Thailand; according to the fee list on their website. My dentist in CR did even one extraction free of charge for me and in-clinic whitening was 20% cheaper in Costa Rica as well. What I am trying to say here is - do your homework before you decide which country to go for dental work…..last but not least…..flights to CR are dirt cheap.

    Every day I watch these videos of Thailand and I am just counting down the months till I can sell all my stuff here in the states and go on a 6 month long vacation in S.E.A. When I go to thailand? I plan to get the cheapest hole in the wall to sleep at for a month till I look around and see what's out there.
    The Medical care you can get in thailand as far as massages, chiropractic, and stuff that's geared to keep you healthy & fit as a fiddle is truly amazing for the price it costs.
    I think this gave me the motivation to get my affairs in order and sell off my stuff and Vacation before life gets to hard. And then I will never be able to go or it would make it much harder.
    The weird thing is? I would actually be able to save money just staying there on Vacation. In fact, I spend more on my storage space then I would spend just staying there for a month. And I don't even need all the stuff I got anymore.
    I swear, my doc's at the VA, have just been trying to lengthen out my stay here with my appointments to take care of stuff I really need to have done over the year on purpose! 😂 (Na, it just takes forever)
    Let's hope 2024 is the year I am out of here.
    I am really getting tired that all my work I do here really is just for other people. Its time I live for myself.
    I worked damn hard and got injured harder.
    Time to relax.
    Life is way to short to not go out an see the sights of life before the lights go out.

    Exactly a year ago I had a dental emergency and had to have two teeth pulled here in NYC. The dentist missed with novacane shot but she pulled them anyway at full excruciating pain. Then after that insult, they charged me $1800.!! That was it for me and the despicable NY dentists and prices. One month later, in August of last year, I was in Thailand and getting a full restoration that included 3-root canals & crowns, 7-lower & 8-upper restorations, and 5 (YES FIVE) implants. Oh yeah, I had to have two more teeth pulled and guess what that cost me? …$26. EACH!
    Now I had to return last February to get the implants installed, but I couldn’t be happier. What could have easily been $60K to $70k in the U.S., cost me a little more than $9K total. The dentist in Thailand was Western trained spoke English and very professional, I was surrounded by 3-assistants at all times, and the technology was state-of-the-art.
    Coincidentally, the NYC dental office recently reached out to me to try and get me to return. I wrote them of my Thailand experience compared to NY - especially their outrageous NY prices - and added that I NEVER wanted to hear from them again. Now I can’t wait to get out of this insult of a country all together. If you disagree, you’re the frog in the boiling water.

    We have great dentists in Chiang Mai and even lower prices than the great ones you mentioned, although your place is quite a bit fancier. But a good English speaking dentist in CM is about 700 baht for cleaning and a filling about 500 baht. As an American, I just find it amazing. My health insurance never covered the dentist and the price for a filling is about 20 times or more. Just crazy. Thanks for the video, Chris. I feel like I know you so much better now that I've seen the inside of your mouth, 555.

      @RetiredGlobalLife - medical care in the US has always been overpriced because there isn't a price cap like in other countries for each medical procedure! The hospitals in the US can charge whatever they want, and it's usually high because the hospitals are counting on the insurance companies to pay for the ridiculously high prices! Then the insurance companies passes on the high costs to the insured through costly month premiums!

    Another great video- I have had extensive dental work done in both Bangkok and Penang over the last 15 years. I recently had to have one implant done in Orlando Florida- Dentist did a nice job, as did the Asian dentists. Biggest difference was price and speed. Asian dentists about 20-25% of cost and substantially faster- lab work done in house. My one implant done in Orlando Florida cost $USD 6000.00!! and took almost 4 months start to finish. Had two veneers replaced (originally done in Bangkok 15 years ago-for a few hundred dollars and completed in 2 days. Orlando cost $USD 15000.00 EACH and took several weeks to complete-lab work is subbed out.

    I have been going to Dental Home Clinic Karon for 15 years now from Australia. Top quality work, at much lower cost than Australia. During Covid I visited an Australian dentist. I went back to my Karon dentist in May 2024. They fixed some of the Australian work, and found 3 abceses, leaking through the gums. This required 2 molar root canals and removal of a tooth that was no longer attached to the jaw. I have a temporary tooth and return in September to finalise the work when the infections are gone and the gums healed. The tooth removal and tempory tooth cost $40 AUD the root canals were $300 each. I was quoted $1800 to $2400 for one molar root canal in Australia. I still have to pay more but was told the hard work was done. Each root canal took 2 hours. I will be getting a bridge as there is not enough bone for a screw in tooth. I already have a bridge fitted by them 5 years ago in another part of my mouth which has given me no issues
