Preparation checklist before your free dental visit

Due to high demand and a limit of 1,086 slots, preparing your health and travel in advance will help ensure a smooth experience.

• Get plenty of rest Procedures like extractions or wisdom tooth surgeries require a well-rested body. If your blood pressure is high due to fatigue, the dentist may postpone treatment for safety.
• Eat breakfast and brush your teeth before arriving Have a proper breakfast and clean your mouth before coming, as you may experience discomfort chewing after treatment.
• Bring medications and inform about chronic conditions If you have conditions like diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, or regularly take blood thinners, bring your medications and inform the dentist before treatment.
• Travel by BTS or MRT It is recommended to use BTS Siam Station (Exit 6) or MRT Sam Yan Station, then walk or take transport to Henri Dunant Road to save time and avoid parking issues.

Ignoring oral problems can lead to chronic diseases that are difficult to treat. Early dental care and check-ups are the best prevention.

If you are ready to improve your oral health on 21 October 2026, plan to wake early, bring your original ID card, and visit the Faculty of Dentistry at Chulalongkorn University.
