Its been about 20 years since i last went to Thailand so things will have changed. I used to stop over there on the way to Penang in Malaysia. I love the people and the food and used to stay in the Oriental or Mandarin Hotels.
On one occasion just as i arrived in Bangkok i developed very bad toothache, i found a British expats dentist who drilled out the offending tooth and stuffed it with a temporary filling. The equipment they used was archaic, like something from the stone age, but after what seemed like a lifetime they managed to do a root canal. Dentists back in the UK could not believe what they did and how long it lasted. I was just happy to be out of there and with the codeine tablets without pain. Be prepared for a culture shock!
