South East Asia Dentistry
Question : What do you get when you sit in a cold cold air-con room at 12 midnight, talking to two of your close friends on MSN and Google Talk ?
Answer : A very good laugh !
For those of you out there who knows both Craig and Sai, ( two people I really admire and care about ) and you know about living standards in Asia, here’s why the two of them made me laugh so much…
Sai on Google Talk and Craig on MSN. ( Neither one is both on Google Talk and MSN at the same time, only me )
In the MSN window, Celine is talking to Craig
Celine : dude. its cool that you are in Japan now, I see you online more often.
Craig : i'm just going to sleep thou what's your excuse?V
Celine: have not packed for thailand tomorrow morning, how is your dentistry research coming along ?
Craig :well according to mizue it's expensive here in japan and i don't have insurance
In another window, concurrently, Celine is talking to Sai
Celine : Sai...Craigy has teeth problems.
Sai: yes? huh?
Celine: he is thinking of flying over to BKK to get his teeth problems fixed. is it expensive there ?
Sai: No, lots of farang flies to thailand to get it done
Celine : hee hee
Sai: is it that cheap to fly to thailand from japan? Or it's just his excuse to go visit my beautiful country ?
Celine : I told him to come to my country.
Back in Craig’s window,
Celine : sai says : a lot of farangs ( foreigners ) fly to BKK to get their teeth fixed !
Craig : so i read, but i just need cavity filings
Celine : sai says that it cost about $1000 baht to fill 1 tooth, yap, so its not cheap
Celine : Sai said that it will not be REALLY cheap but ti's definitely a good excuse to get there =p
Craig: what?!, you're crazy
Celine : hahahahahahaha
Craig : i think you both need a good rest
Celine : Sai said to go Loas and find an english speaking dentist, that's a quest.. just the way craig likes it, that way its cheaper.
Celine : i really dont recommend you going to Laos to fix your teeth
Craig: it can't be that much to get a filling i thought it was super quick to do something like that? it's just drill a hole and pour some metal in, i've never had one before though
Celine : hahahahahahhahaa
Craig: you two are freaking me out !
Craig: i can't afford no 1000 baht!!
Celine : Sai said : just break some teeth on the sushi signs and claim from ur insurance!
then.. go to Laos......wait.. i highly recommend Cambodia.. u can stop by Ankor Wat on the way to the dentist
Craig : yep i can get one tooth fixed in each country in SE asia, my right front incisor in Thailand, then back molar in laos, singapore can fix the front choppers,
Sai to Craig : dude.. have u been eating too many of those Japanese dorayaki? or whatever it's called.. the bread thing with read beans inside.. Doraemon's favorite food. This is the pain you get from living in expensive Japan. ok.. new plan ..why dont' Craig come to istanbul for a new set of Arabian teeth and Celine can sponsor the flight
( AND I GOT DRAGGED INTO FIXING Craig’s Teeth ! )
While I just laughed away, cutting and pasting in both Craig’s and Sai’s window !
Craig: where is sai anyways? and how is she talking to me through celine!
Celine : sai is in turkey on her TN
Craig:: they love gold teeth in the middle east
( Celine thinks : where did that come from ? imagine craig with gold teeth ! YUCKS ! )
Celine : [ still laughing ]
Craig : i'm just going to sleep now, good night lovely ladies, thx for the entertainment !
This is clips and parts of the conversation, I am sorry now that whomever reads my blog knows about Craig’s dentist problem and Sai’s remarkable knowledge about dentistry in S.E.Asia. I advise Craig to get his teething problems ( smiles ) fixed in Singapore and wonders how many teeth does Craig need to fix !

I heard some people were interested so here's an update!
I found a dentist in Yokohama that studied at UCLA and went to see him. He couldn't even find any cavities that the Canadian dentist claimed to notice. He took one x-ray and told me I had extremely healthy and strong teeth and my gums were doing just fine but could always use a little more floss.
So I'm going back there tomorrow for a regular cleaning. I'll tell you it's a great piece of mind after thinking for quite a while that I had some cavities and had no dental insurance!
Woohoo!
