5/5

I’ve been going to Expat Dental for over 7 years and have been happy with all of their services (cleaning, mouth guards, injections for grinding, whitening, etc). I can't speak highly enough about both Dr Matt and Shaun! They are by far the best dentists I have found in Singapore.

I am so happy with that care that I have received from the whole team at Expat Dental. The clinics are amazing with all the best tech to help keep me comfortable and entertained during my treatment. Who would have thought that I could look forward to my cleaning and a chance to lay down and watch Netflix! The dentist’s are caring and and gentle make sure that I comfortable and understand my treatment, time it will take and the associated costs. My hygienist was gentle and thorough. I actually look forward to going to the dentist now!

5/5

A big thank you to expatdental! They have been great dentists to my whole family. A few years ago I had a complicated wisdom tooth procedure, and they handled it beautifully. Both my kids now go to expatdental, and it's great knowing they are already comfortable with going to the dentist. A truly fantastic experience.
