This study applied a cross-sectional research design and a quantitative research method. The data were collected using questionnaires. A total of 106 respondents were involved in this study. Descriptive statistics, correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were performed to address the research objectives of the study. It was found that international patients are highly satisfied with their dental tourism experiences in Bangkok. In addition, the results showed that quality of dental treatment, location accessibility and destination appeal have a positive and significant influence on dental tourist satisfaction.
