Never in my life did I think I would say “What a pleasure it is to visit a dentist.”
As I approach 70 years of age, and having neglected and abused my teeth for many years, I made the decision to get my mouth properly assessed, and was appalled at the price offered in Australia.  So, I asked some colleagues with whom I had worked in Pattaya who was the best in their area.  Simultaneously they named Dr Ken Kasidis, whom I duly consulted nearly 4 years ago now.
The first consultation took a couple of hours, and resulted in a rejuvenation plan for my mouth over several visits, all of which was emailed to me, and I had 2 extractions that evening to start the process.  Those teeth had abscesses that required treatment before any implants could be considered.
Over a series of visits I had multiple implants, a bone transplant and several separate crowns fitted, all using local anesthetic blocks, without any discomfort.  I didn’t even feel the needles entering the mouth!
When fitting the crowns to teeth and implants, Dr Kasidis is so fastidious!  There were four crowns fitted to my left upper jaw in one sitting of four hours!  Such is the attention to detail of his work.  AND he is the only dentist ever who has not created tears at the corner of my somewhat small moth, even with long sessions of work.  In the past that has always been a problem, making me very sore for 3 days after work on my teeth, one of the reasons I ignored them for so long.
As well, I have always been able to arrange appointments by email, and hence manage my trips to and from Thailand with ease.  The staff surrounding Dr Kasidis are all so polite, caring and helpful, making the whole teamwork so good. I almost feel as if I am part of the family when I present for an appointment!  It is always a pleasure to be greeted so politely.  Appointment times are made, and adhered to!  I was given an apology once for Dr Kasidis running 5 minutes late at 7pm!  Unheard of in Australia where no information is given even if the dentist is an hour late!

I could not be more pleased with the quality of the work I have had done, and the quality of the service I have had provided at all levels, and will come back for all my dental needs, as will my family.
