About Smileplus Dental Surgery (Bukit Merah/Redhill) - Elder friendly clinic specializing in dentures and wisdom tooth surgery

SmilePlus Dental is a Singapore dental clinic with two branches, in Hougang and Redhill/Bukit Merah, positioned around gentle extractions and affordable implant and denture care. The clinic accepts CHAS Blue, Pioneer Generation and Merdeka Generation subsidy schemes, with consultations, scaling and polishing, fluoride treatment and x-rays available with no top-up payment for eligible cardholders.

Core services include wisdom tooth extraction, dental implants, implant-supported dentures, regular dentures, and dental crowns. Dental implant surgery is Medisave claimable, and where suitable, implants can be placed on the same day as an extraction to help avoid socket collapse and support better aesthetic outcomes. Most patients are considered suitable for implants unless they have severe diabetes or osteoporosis, with the clinic assessing bone thickness and medical history before treatment.

The clinic is led by Dr Sean, alongside the clinic team, and offers an all-inclusive checkup with a Dental Hygienist covering cleaning, fluoride, consultation and x-rays in one visit.

SmilePlus Dental: Affordable, Subsidy-Supported Dental Care in Singapore

SmilePlus Dental has built its two Singapore clinics, in Hougang and Redhill/Bukit Merah, around a simple promise: gentle extractions and affordable implants. The practice leans heavily into making core treatments accessible, working with CHAS Blue, Pioneer Generation, and Merdeka Generation subsidy schemes so that eligible patients can get consultations, scaling and polishing, fluoride treatment, and x-rays without a top-up payment.

Wisdom Tooth Extraction Without the Fear Factor

Wisdom tooth removal is one of the clinic's core services, and SmilePlus frames it as far less daunting than patients often expect. Upper wisdom tooth extractions are quick procedures with a short downtime and minimal medical leave, while lower wisdom tooth extractions, which are more involved, run around 30 minutes and are Medisave claimable. The clinic explains two common reasons wisdom teeth need removal: pericoronitis, inflammation of the gum flap around the tooth that causes recurring throbbing pain, and tooth decay caused by food trapped around an impacted tooth, which can also affect the neighbouring second molar if left untreated.

Implants Built for Speed and Convenience

SmilePlus Dental's implant service includes the crown (porcelain fused to metal) as part of the package, with the surgery itself typically taking 20 to 40 minutes and only 1-2 days of downtime. Follow-up visits are included, and the surgery is Medisave claimable. Notably, implants can often be placed on the same day as an extraction where suitable, which the clinic says can help avoid collapse of the tooth socket and, in some cases, deliver a better aesthetic result. Most patients are considered suitable candidates, with severe diabetes or osteoporosis being the main exceptions — the clinic assesses bone thickness and overall medical history before confirming suitability.

Dentures, Crowns, and Everyday Dental Care

Beyond extractions and implants, SmilePlus offers implant-supported dentures for a more secure fit, standard dentures priced to be accessible with subsidy support, and dental crowns. For routine care, the clinic offers an all-inclusive checkup with a Dental Hygienist covering cleaning, fluoride treatment, consultation, and x-rays in a single visit, alongside clear aligner treatment for those wanting straighter teeth without traditional braces.
