About DentalPlus Clinic - Telok Blangah

DentalPlus Clinic is a neighbourhood dental practice in Telok Blangah, within walking distance of the Circle Line MRT and about 20 minutes from the city centre. It has operated from this location since first opening as a single-room clinic in 2005, and has since served more than 30,000 patients and completed over 400,000 treatments.

The clinic focuses on regular dental check-ups and everyday dental care for both adults and children, with an emphasis on prevention and education to keep treatment affordable. It serves residents from nearby HDB and private estates, as well as people working in neighbouring office buildings such as Mapletree Business City and the PSA Building.

DentalPlus is CHAS, CPF Medisave and AIA accredited, and is also a Baby Bonus Scheme (CDA) approved institution, giving patients several subsidy and insurance options. Younger patients are catered for with a mini kids' play area featuring a bouncy ball machine, aimed at making a child's first dental visit less daunting.

Services range from routine check-ups, scaling and polishing, and teeth whitening through to root canal treatment, extractions, dental implants, crowns, bridges, dentures and mouthguards. Teeth straightening (braces and Invisalign) is coordinated with its sister branch, Smilepoint Dental Centre in Holland Village.

DentalPlus Telok Blangah: A Neighbourhood Dental Clinic Since 2005

On Telok Blangah Street 32, a short walk from the Circle Line MRT, DentalPlus Clinic has been treating the neighbourhood since it first opened as a single-room practice in 2005. Over that time it has grown to serve more than 30,000 patients and complete over 400,000 treatments, while staying in the same Telok Blangah location.

Who they serve

DentalPlus mainly serves residents from the HDB and private estates around Telok Blangah, but it also sees people from further afield, including workers from nearby office buildings such as Mapletree Business City and the PSA Building. The clinic is open seven days a week, which gives patients flexibility to book around work and family schedules.

What they're known for

The practice's philosophy centres on prevention and education — the idea that catching dental problems early keeps treatment simpler and more affordable. Day-to-day, the dentists focus on regular check-ups and basic dental treatments for both adults and children, rather than positioning themselves purely around cosmetic or specialist work.

That said, the range of treatments on offer is broad. Alongside routine check-ups, scaling and polishing, and the Clean and Brighten whitening treatment, DentalPlus also provides bleeding gums treatment, root canal treatment, tooth extractions, wisdom tooth removal, fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, dental implants, and mouthguards for teeth grinding. For teeth straightening — braces and Invisalign — patients are directed to DentalPlus's sister branch, Smilepoint Dental Centre in Holland Village.

Making it easier for families

A first trip to the dentist can be daunting for a young child, so DentalPlus has set up a mini kids' play area with a bouncy ball machine in the clinic, aimed at putting younger patients at ease before and after their appointment.

Payment options and subsidies

DentalPlus is accredited across several schemes that help make treatment more accessible. It's a CPF Medisave accredited clinic, with procedures like wisdom tooth surgery, dental implants and biopsy claimable through Medisave. It also participates in the Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS), offering subsidised co-payment for outpatient dental services, and is an AIA accredited clinic for patients with AIA dental coverage. Families can also use funds from a Baby Bonus CDA account for a child's dental treatment, and for their siblings. Day-to-day payments can be made via NETS or PayNow.

Getting there

The clinic sits at 78B Telok Blangah Street 32, #01-21, Singapore 102078, within walking distance of nearby estates including Telok Blangah Parcview, Telok Blangah Towers, Telok Blangah Ridgeview, Telok Blangah Beacon, Telok Blangah Drive, Telok Blangah Heights, Telok Blangah Rise, Telok Blangah Crescent and Bukit Purmei Road. Its proximity to the Circle Line MRT makes it a straightforward stop for patients travelling from other parts of Singapore, roughly 20 minutes from the city.

The experience

What stands out about DentalPlus is its long, continuous presence in one neighbourhood — two decades of treating the same community — combined with a fairly comprehensive treatment list for a clinic that still frames itself around everyday preventive care rather than specialist cosmetic dentistry. Patients can book online, via WhatsApp, or by phone, and can reach the clinic through several insurance, Medisave and CHAS pathways depending on their circumstances.
