What recent reviews say

Dr Tan's team repeatedly saves teeth that other dentists mark for extraction, using specialist skill to retrieve broken files and treat severely blocked or calcified canals. Reviewers consistently praise the doctors' patience and gentleness, detailed pre-treatment explanation of costs and success rates, and close follow-up monitoring of bone healing over months and years. The clinic feels unhurried and genuinely cares: staff lend blankets to anxious patients, nurses make you comfortable, and the head endodontist sometimes steps in on complex cases. Success is backed by tracking X-rays and imaging at each stage, so you see exactly what's happening inside your tooth.

Treatment outcomes stand out across 20+ reviews: failed root canals get retreated and healed; wisdom teeth with unusual anatomy are saved; bone loss shows steady recovery. One patient flew in from holiday expressly for a complex procedure. Another was told her tooth couldn't be saved abroad, then recovered 90% of lost bone within a year at Tan Endodontic. Pricing is presented upfront with clear breakdowns, and staff warmth extends through the entire visit. The clinic is spotless and well-equipped with imaging technology.

Praised for
  • expert endodontist skill with complex cases
  • calm, patient, and gentle demeanor

Nearly all visits yield praise for Dr Chris, Dr Esther, Dr Ivan and the team's calm, detailed approach to treatment. One significant complaint: a RM21K denture promised as flexible US material arrived as hard plastic, causing pain, with limited transparency on product specs or remedies upfront.
