Our dental services include:
  • Dental examination ​
  • Basic dental treatment, such as scaling, polishing, filling and extraction​
  • Preventive treatment, such as fissure sealants to prevent tooth decay ​
  • Group instruction and activities relating to good dental practices and healthy eating habits​​
The services provided are subjected to the child’s oral health status.

Should your child require further treatment, such as X-rays, dentures or simple root canal therapy, he/she will be referred to the School Dental Centre (SDC). A fee for treatment at the SDC will be charged to permanent residents and foreigners.  If laboratory services are required, there will be laboratory charges incurred for pupils including Singaporeans. ​
