Where to buy dental mouth guard?

honestly i would just hit up a pharmacy in the nana area or around asok, there's a few smaller ones that stock sports gear too. the one on sukhumvit soi 19 near the bts exit has them behind the counter usually, just ask for "night guard" or "sport mouth guard" and they'll dig one out. prob around 400 baht and it's the same generic boil and bite stuff you'd get anywhere else

If you're near the Silom area, try the pharmacy inside Robinsons at Silom Complex. They keep a few brands in the dental section, including the thicker ones for grinding which work better than the thin sports ones for sleeping. Just ask for "night guard" at the counter, they're about 400-500 baht and you boil them to fit yourself right there in the hotel room.

You can walk into most Boots or Watsons in central Bangkok and find a basic boil-and-bite mouth guard in the sports section or near the dental care aisle. The one at Siam Paragon's basement pharmacy usually has a few options, or try the larger Boots on Sukhumvit Soi 11. A decent one will run you about 300-500 baht, which is fine for a few nights.

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
