Who are some recommended endodontists in Singapore for root canal treatment?

Doctor's Answers 2

I usually refer to TwinCity Clinic in Ngee Ann City, Orchard. Usually Dr Kimmy sees my cases and I’ve met Dr Richard Ang at conferences – really nice guy. Feedback from my patients has been great and they’ve never had difficulty in getting an appointment.

You can consider seeing a general dentist too as they’ll be able help ease your pain until you can get an appointment with a specialist 🙂

Hope your toothache settles down!

Dr Meow is no longer writing with us, but here are some comments from our fellow dentists colleagues –

“I’ve seen the work of Dr Wu Siwen from Thomson Dental Centre – it’s very good, so can recommend her”.

“Dr Ong Eng Yau and Dr Timothy Sim – both receive many referrals for root canal cases, and especially molar root canal cases.”

Disclaimer as always that this site does not have any links to any of the mentioned dentists, and they are also non-exhaustive recommendations – we cannot name every single good/friendly endodontist in Singapore here, of which there are plenty.

Hope you get your issues sorted out soon!!! 🙂

How much does root canal treatment cost in Singapore? Are there any subsidies for root canal treatment?

Thank you for your question. There are government subsidies for root canal treatment procedures in the following institutions: National Dental Centre, National University Hospital and Khoo Teck Puat Hospital. The cost would vary depending on the tooth that requires root canal treatment. For incisors and canines, it would be around $300. For premolars it would be around $500. And for molars it would be around $800. After root canal treatment, a crown would be generally be needed, especially for premolars and molars to protect the tooth.

Who are some recommended dentists for root canal treatment in Singapore?

From what you have said, I understand that the painkillers are unable to ease your pain, and I assume that your pain is spontaneous ie not triggered by hot/cold? Does it get worse with biting though? Your pain may be due to nerve involvement, possibly due to long term bacteria invasion from the decay you previously had, or the tooth may be cracked too. Although at times sensitivity after fillings is common, just that it is usually not as severe a presentation. I personally think that your signs and symptoms points to the need of having a root canal treatment.
