You requested advice re; dental soft power. Could suggest book at least half a dozen advance cosmetic treatment appointments (stretch them apart to monthly) in one go. Even at Thai prices the cost may be prohibitive especially if you don’t need the work. There have been reports of applicants doing this and, after their DTV was granted, cancelling their appointments. I haven’t done this myself.
For medical you'll need documentation from the dental clinic / doctor with diagnosis, treatment plan, and appointments generally lasting 6 months or more. If you have a previous history with this clinic it might help but appointments in the past have nothing to do with future appointments.
