‘Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist’ Delivers Sugary Romance

But the Thai rom-com loses its flavor after a promising start.

A collage student’s dessert obsession leads to unexpected romance in ‘Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist,’ a Thai romantic comedy.But does the series deliver beyond its initial sweetness?

A Foodie’s Romantic Journey

Sant, portrayed by Ohm Thipakorn Thitathan, juggles part-time jobs and a food channel. Encouraged by his best friend Gugg (Poon Mitpakdee), Sant seeks affordable dental care from Jay (Mark Pakin Kuna-anuwit), a dental student. Jay‘s romantic pursuit of Sant forms the heart of the series, though a rival complicates matters.

Run-of-the-Mill Romance?

Directed by Pepzi Banchorn Vorasataree, the series initially charms, but soon falls into familiar romantic comedy tropes. The plot, while featuring attractive actors, relies on generic conflicts to create artificial depth.

Chemistry and Comedic Relief

Ohm Thipakorn Thitathan and Mark Pakin Kuna-anuwit share a cute onscreen chemistry. However, Sant‘s friendship with Gugg provides more consistent entertainment. Ohm Thipakorn Thitathan shines as Sant, while Mark Pakin endearingly embodies his character.

Familiar Faces and Subplots

Jimmy Jitaraphol Potiwihok, previously seen in ‘last Twilight,’ appears as Captain, a café owner and rival for sant‘s affections. Benyapa Jeenprasom plays Yada, Jay‘s dentist friend, who becomes the object of Gugg‘s affection. While the main couple navigates their romance, gugg and yada‘s subplot offers a fresher dynamic.

Losing its Sweetness

After a promising start, ‘Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist’ loses momentum around episode 7. The pacing slows, the jokes become repetitive, and the initial charm fades. While the series offers sugary moments, it lacks the consistent humor found in other productions like ‘Ossan’s Love.’

Ultimately, if you enjoy predictable conflicts and cute leads, ‘Sweet Tooth, Good Dentist’ might be a satisfying, light-hearted watch. The series is available on YouTube.
