At Shuang Dentistry, we believe that the best dental care is proactive, not reactive. Our approach to restorative and preventative dentistry in Yishun is centered on a simple philosophy: to prevent dental problems before they start and to provide conservative, effective treatments when they do. We are committed to helping you and your family maintain a lifetime of healthy smiles.
Preventative care is the cornerstone of good oral health. It involves regular check-ups, professional cleanings, and personalised advice to help you avoid common dental issues like cavities, gum disease, and enamel wear. For our younger patients, we offer specialised treatments like high-concentration fluoride varnish and fissure sealants to provide an extra layer of protection for their developing teeth.
The Importance of Regular Dental Check-ups
Regular dental check-ups are your first line of defence against dental problems. During your visit to our Yishun dental clinic, our experienced dentists will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth. This allows us to detect any potential issues early, when they are easier and more affordable to treat.
We recommend a dental check-up and professional cleaning every six months. This allows us to remove any plaque and tartar buildup that can lead to cavities and gum disease. It also gives us an opportunity to discuss your oral hygiene habits and provide you with personalised advice to help you maintain a healthy smile between visits.
Our Preventative Dentistry Services
Dental Check-ups and Consultations: Comprehensive examinations to assess your oral health.
Scaling and Polishing: Professional cleaning to remove plaque and tartar, leaving your teeth feeling fresh and smooth.

Fissure Sealants: A protective coating applied to the chewing surfaces of back teeth to prevent food and bacteria from getting trapped in the grooves.
Restorative Dentistry: Repairing and Rebuilding Your Smile
When a dental problem does occur, our restorative dentistry services are here to help. We use the latest techniques and materials to repair damaged teeth and restore their function and appearance. Our goal is to provide you with a long-lasting solution that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth.
Tooth-Coloured Fillings
At Shuang Dentistry, we exclusively use tooth-coloured composite resin for our fillings. These modern materials are not only aesthetically pleasing, but they also bond directly to the tooth, making them a strong and durable solution for repairing cavities. Unlike traditional silver amalgam fillings, our white fillings contain no mercury and require less removal of healthy tooth structure.
Inlays and Onlays
For larger cavities or damage that is too extensive for a regular filling, we may recommend an inlay or onlay. These are custom-made restorations that are fabricated in a dental laboratory and then bonded to the tooth. They are a more conservative alternative to a full crown and can be made from porcelain or gold to provide a strong and long-lasting solution.
The Shuang Dentistry Difference
At Shuang Dentistry, we are committed to providing you with quality of care in a comfortable and welcoming environment. We use current technology, such as digital X-rays and intraoral cameras, to ensure an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan. Our team of experienced and caring dental professionals is dedicated to making your visit as pleasant and stress-free as possible.
We believe in transparent and honest communication. We will always take the time to explain your treatment options and answer any questions you may have. We are committed to providing you with the information you need to make informed decisions about your oral health.
