A dentist in Bangkok was arrested while performing a procedure at a clinic in the city’s Sathon district as authorities discovered the woman had been treating patients without a licence using a forged professional ID.

Officers from the Consumer Protection Police Division (CPPD), alongside representatives from the Dental Council, raided the clinic today, October 8, following reports of an unlicensed practitioner providing dental services to the public.

The suspect, identified only as 26 year old Bee, was caught removing plaque from a patient’s teeth. She admitted to graduating from a dentistry faculty in Thailand, but had never taken the licensing exam.
