On December 12, Marasri Jairangsi, Secretary-General of the Social Security Office (SSO), reminded insured individuals under Sections 33 and 39 of the Social Security Act to use their annual dental care benefits before they expire on December 31, 2024.

The SSO provides insured individuals with up to ฿900 per year for dental procedures, including tooth extractions, fillings, scaling, and wisdom tooth surgeries. These services can be accessed without upfront payment at participating clinics or hospitals under agreement with the SSO.

The benefits are not limited by the number of visits but must be utilized by the end of the calendar year. Eligible individuals can seek services at both private and public healthcare facilities within the network.
