Full mouth examination, scaling & polishing

Routine dental checks and cleaning are necessary to keep your teeth and gums in good condition. As common dental problems like decay and gum disease are usually painless in their early stages, the early diagnosis and treatment of such dental problems can help you to reduce the possibility of needing complex and expensive treatment later on. We recommend 6 monthly dental check ups and cleaning in general. However, for patients who are more prone to decay and/or gum disease, shorter intervals may be beneficial.

Examination, scaling and polishing, fillings, extractions, fluoride therapy

Most children start teething at about 6 months old, and have their full set of baby teeth by 2.5 years old.

Decay can set in as fast as a few months after a tooth erupts into the mouth.

Hence we recommend bringing children for their first dental check at the age of 1.

An examination can be done to review your child's teeth and gums. From there, we can advise if any dietary or oral hygiene practise changes are necessary.

Please do not worry if your child cries the whole time.

While it is true that most baby teeth are temporary teeth, they are nonetheless important for eating (one of the best things in life, right?). Baby teeth start dropping out when adult teeth come in at about 6 years old and are only completely shed by the age of 11-12 on average. That's a good 6-11 years that baby teeth are around! Baby teeth are also important cursors for adult teeth to erupt into correct positions, so the early loss of them is more likely to increase the need for braces in future.

How to prepare your child to see a dentist:

• Read a book about going to the dentist
• Tell them that the dentist is going to count how many teeth they have and check if all their teeth are in a good condition
• Schedule their appointment at a time where they are likely to be in a good mood and well rested
• Keep positive vibes up (even if you're not a great fan of seeing dentists yourself)

The Baby Bonus Child Development Account (CDA) can be used to pay for both consultation and treatment.

Fillings, root canal treatment, extractions

Two most common causes of dental pain are decay and gum disease. Dental x-rays are often required to ascertain the cause of pain, and from there, appropriate treatment can be done.

Fillings, root canal treatment, fluoride therapy

Tooth sensitivity is often due to decay or gum recession. It can be managed accordingly after ascertaining it's cause.

Fillings, root canal treatment, extractions

Holes in teeth are usually caused by decay or fracture from biting something too hard. Dental x-rays are often required to ascertain the extent of the hole, and from there, appropriate treatment can be done.

Scaling & polishing, gum treatment

Bleeding gums are often a sign of gum disease - either gingivitis, whereby there is reversible inflammation of gums or periodontitis, whereby there is irreversible destruction of gum and bone. Appropriate treatment can be rendered depending on the condition of your gums.

Gum treatment, extractions

Shaky teeth are often due to advanced gum disease, whereby your bone and gums are unable to provide a sufficiently firm foundation for your teeth anymore. Depending on the severity, the tooth may need to undergo gum treatment or to be extracted.

Examination; removal if necessary

Wisdom teeth often come out slanted instead of straight, causing food to be trapped, leading to decay and/or gum disease. Additionally, it is difficult to brush wisdom teeth properly as they are far behind in the mouth. The need to remove wisdom teeth depends on their position and whether or not they are likely to cause future problems. Surgical removal of wisdom teeth can be subsidized by Medisave (for Singaporeans and Singapore PRs).

Scaling & polishing, gum treatment, fillings

Bad breath or halitosis, is commonly due to the accumulation of bacteria and food residues in the mouth, either beneath the gums, between or within teeth. The cause of halitosis needs to be determined first, such that approrpiate treatment can be rendered.
