Chompoonuj Thanyakarn

Chompoonuj Thanyakarn’s orthodontic profile is defined by Invisalign training and recognition: she is Thailand’s first orthodontist featured in the Global Invisalign Gallery. At HeySmile Dental Clinic, she works as a Senior Dentist and Supervisor within the clinic’s orthodontic team. Her academic path includes a D.D.S. (Hons.) from Mahidol University in 1988, followed by an M.D.Sc. in Orthodontics from Lund University in 1991. Between 1988 and 1991, she completed a certificate of training in the specialty of Orthodontics at Lund University, and later added clinical education and training on the application of Invisalign in 2003. Clinically, her focus includes Invisalign clear aligners, and her consultations are supported by core orthodontic imaging such as panoramic X-rays. The clinic’s first-visit process is designed for clarity: patients book online or via WhatsApp, receive an examination, and then review treatment options and pricing. For international patients, this structure helps ensure that orthodontic planning in Bangkok stays organized around the patient’s goals.
