    South Pattaya Dentist - Dr Supachai & a Night in Pattaya

    This past week I invited a staff member from the Mike's La Cage Club
    in the Sunee Plaza area...to join me for an evening of dinner, show and clubbing.

    The handsome young man from KohnKaen had just joined the Staff at La Cage,
    having recently been a Staff Waiter at The Bondi Hotel in Jomtien.

    We enjoyed several drinks at La Cage, then proceeded to see
    the 10:30pm show at Wild- Wild-West Club. A good showtime performance of 30 minutes,
    many handsome staff, entertainers..showtime drinks are 150 baht...
    (99 baht before 10pm) and we both enjoyed the show.

    After the show, we stopped into Le Cafe Royale Hotel - Restaurant and Piano Bar.
    Khun Toi - sings nightly (except Sundays) from 11:00pm til close (after 2:00am)
    and is very talented entertainer and singer...
    a graduate of Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok - his major was Music - Opera.

    While we enjoyed his singing - in Thai and English -
    we ordered a late night meal from the Le Cafe Royale menu.

    The food was delicious and fairly priced...I had the American Breakfast 160 baht
    and my Thai friend had a Thai dish of 180 baht - huge serving and he liked it :-)

    My thanks to Mike's La Cage and the special staff member who I was fortunate to meet.
    We enjoyed the evening together and he was a most gracious and kind host.

    I noted with interest - as I have many, many times before,
    that the young man had a broken-chipped front tooth (from Motorbike accident)
    which was quite evident as he smiled that beautiful, welcoming smile of his :-)

    The next morning, after breakfast, we proceeded to PATTAYA DENTIST
    located on South Pattaya Road...across from Center Condos....
    at 32/14 South Pattaya Road.... telephone # 038-424222.

    We walked in without an appointment...at 9:30am ...and was seen within 15 minutes.

    Dr. Supachai Kaothunthong - a fine dentist - examined him and said
    he had 5 cavities and one chipped - broken front tooth.

    I asked the Dentist to go ahead and take care...plus clean his teeth.

    She said OK and about 90 minutes later he was finished...
    and his smile was more beautiful with his chipped front tooth fixed :-)

    Total cost was 3,100 baht ...Cleaning & Exam was 500 baht;
    filled 5 cavities at 400 baht each; and repaired the cracked-chipped
    front tooth 600 baht...a great value for me and a new look for him too :-)

    I highly recommend the Staff of Dentists at Pattaya Dentist.

    I have had three of their Dentists handle the dental needs
    of many Thais over the years...and they all have been great!

    As usual, you're super with the boys, Jim, and I'm sure the repair added to his self esteem immensely.
    And you know, he'll never forget.

    A chipped front tooth can be a hazard when getting blown.
    You have performed a great public service to Pattaya's gay community.

    Something is missing between "we ordered a late night meal from the Le Cafe Royale menu. " and "The next morning, after breakfast, we proceeded to PATTAYA DENTIST "


    You could have faded out in the narrative to the waves splashing sexually over the hard rocks of dogtan beach and then faded back in with dew soaked plant sprouts rising up to greet the sun.

    Money well spent - he will remember you with gratitude every time he looks in the mirror.

    good deed

    This good gesture encourages me to take my Bk to a dentist (inexpensive one) to get some work done.What other local dentists do readers know that are reasonable in price and good? My BF needs to have 4-6 teeth capped due to a motorbike accident that happened 8?? year ago. I keep thinking how expensive it would be in the States or at Pattaya-Bangkok Hospital, so maybe there is a "local" dentist that could help, but I don't want to take him to a rookie or someone that isn't qualified.

    Thrillbill..

    Take him into the same dental office I have posted about...
    ask them for an Examination and Cleaning of your bf teeth..
    and for recommendations ..and costs..for needed repairs.

    I have used all 3 of the Dentist Staff at this office..
    and they are all very professional and good!

    PATTAYA DENTIST
    located on South Pattaya Road...across from Center Condos....
    at 32/14 South Pattaya Road.... telephone # 038-424222.

    If you are pleased with their recommendations...
    then you can set appointments for implementation of the needed repairs.

    The cost of the Exam and Teeth Cleaning (done by the Dentist) is about 500-600 baht...
    less that US $20.00...a very good value and "cheap" by American standards.

    Yes, do your bf a BIG favor...go see the Dentist!

    By the way, IF your bf is shy of wanting to see the Dentist...
    do not tell him where you are going with him...

    I suggest you take him to TucCom - IT Center on South Pattaya Road...
    look around a little...exit TucCom...then walk with him towards Second Rd....
    about 1 1/2 blocks...until you reach Pattaya Dentist's Office..
    then quickly slip into the office...with bf in tow...
    and there you have it..he will then see the Dentist...

    I have done this before...and it works every time :-)

    Sounds a bit like trying to fool your dog into thinking you're going to the park, then taking him to the vet instead. A bit patronizing, don't you think? Is this not an adult human being we're talking about?

    Adult children

    Sexpat, all of us "adults" act like children at times. I do not know about you, but the one reason I have friends is to tell me what they really think. and to tell me when I am wrong or acting "childish". I remember once I was having some mild chest pains and I told my friend. She suggested I call a doctor, but I said, "I would be all right." Next thing I know the ambulance is at my house and they take me to the hospital for a triple by-pass. Why did she call an ambulance for me? Because she knew that denial is the first symptom of a heart attack. She did not argue with me, she just called emergency services. Trust me, she did not think I was stupid or second class, she was just being my friend. To take someone to a dentist when they need care is hardly being patronizing. Not by my standards, or, apparently, the standards of Jim and the others. However, you may treat your friends any way you want, but I would much rather be friends with someone like Jim.

    My Thai friend tells me Thai dentists frequently (generally?) do not use Novocain for Thai patients. Your friend may be reluctant to see a dentist because of previous experience.

    If that be the case, you can explain there is no need for the procedure to be painful. I had to explain to one lad the dentist was working for him. If the dentist ignored his pain he was to get up and walk out.

    Of course IтАЩm sure he wouldnтАЩt do it -- status, face, and all that.
