Ministry of Public Health launches “Smile Thailand 2027” project to elevate oral health for Thai people using digital technology

Published 2026-10-19

The Ministry of Public Health has announced the launch of the “Smile Thailand 2027: Good Health Starts with Oral Care” project to elevate the standard of dental care for citizens nationwide. The initiative focuses on applying digital dental technology to treatments, ensuring that Thai people can access quality services more equitably and comprehensively.

The core of this project is the integration of modern innovation to reduce disparities in dental care access, particularly in remote areas. Digital technology will enable faster and more accurate diagnosis and treatment, while also helping to reduce waiting times for patients at public hospitals.

Furthermore, the project places special emphasis on the elderly, a group that requires continuous oral health care. This ensures that elderly people in Thailand can lead high-quality lives, maintain physical health, and enjoy bright smiles, which contributes positively to their overall health and long-term quality of life.

Operations under this project will integrate cooperation between public health agencies and dental experts to build a sustainable oral health care system. The goal is for Thai people of all ages to receive comprehensive care by the year 2027, in line with the Ministry of Public Health’s proactive health promotion policy.
