About Us
Glory Dental has been serving the community at Katong Shopping Centre since 1990 with compassion and dedication across generations. While our roots remain firmly planted in Katong, we now welcome patients from all over Singapore—and even overseas—as new generations of patients have relocated across the island while continuing to return for care they trust.
Our Vision
To be the trusted family dental home in Katong and East Coast – where every patient, from child to senior, receives patient-first, ethical and gentle care. We envision a community with healthy smiles, empowered through education and prevention, with binocular focus on long-term oral health, not short-term treatment.
Our Mission
Guided by Dr. Voo's founding philosophy to put the interests of patients first and serve with unwavering integrity, our mission is to provide inclusive dentistry for all. We are committed to offering the same respectful, gentle, and affordable treatment to every individual—including foreign workers, mission workers, and those in ministry—with full support for CHAS, Pioneer, Merdeka Generation, and MediSave claims.

- Crowning: capping the tooth with zirconia or alloy (for back teeth where the tooth is vertically challenged).

Frequently Asked Questions – Glory Dental Katong
Last updated: 26 Oct 2026 | As of 2026
Q1: Why do I need a dental check-up every 6 months?
- Regular 6-monthly check-ups help detect and prevent dental problems early. Early detection allows for simple treatment and prevents painful, costly experiences later.
- Many problems like cavities, gum disease, and early oral cancer have no pain at first. At Glory Dental Surgery, we check for these, remove hardened plaque that brushing can't remove, and give you personalised advice to keep your teeth and gums healthy for life.
- Skipping check-ups often leads to: bigger fillings, root canal treatment, or tooth loss that could have been avoided with a simple cleaning from $90 nett (CHAS claimable).
Q2: What happens during my 6-monthly check-up at Glory Dental?
- Scaling and Polishing: Thorough cleaning to remove bacterial deposits between teeth and around the gumline. CHAS from $90 nett.
- Comprehensive Examination: Checking teeth, gums, bite, and soft tissues for decay, gum disease, or other abnormalities by MOH-registered dentists.
- X-rays (if needed): Low-radiation digital x-rays to detect hidden cavities or bone loss.
- Personalised Advice: Fluoride treatment and guidance on next steps if treatment is required.
- It takes about 30-45 mins and is painless. 865 Mountbatten Rd #02-02, 4-min walk from Mountbatten MRT Exit B.
Q3: What are dentures and what is their function?
- Dentures are removable appliances that replace missing teeth and surrounding tissues. There are two main types:
- Full Dentures: When all teeth in an arch are missing – Dr Voo Hwee Choo has 40+ years experience in full dentures.
- Partial Dentures (plastic or metal-based / Valplast flexible): When some natural teeth remain.
- Functions: Restore ability to chew and speak properly, restore facial support and smile aesthetics, prevent remaining teeth from shifting. Lab-made in Singapore, relines and repairs available – CHAS claimable, implant-retained option.
- Dentures are a non-surgical, cost-effective solution, though some patients take time to adapt to wearing them.
Q4: What are dental implants and how are they different from dentures?
- Dental implants are the closest replacement to your own natural teeth.
- An implant is a medical-grade titanium screw that acts as an artificial tooth root, placed into the jawbone with CBCT 3D guidance. A crown is then fixed on top. Unlike dentures which are removable, implants are fixed, feel and look like real teeth, and do not require grinding down neighbouring teeth like a bridge does.
- Key advantages of implants over dentures: Permanent & Stable – No slipping, no adhesives; Preserves Jawbone – Prevents bone shrinkage; Long-term – Can be permanent if maintained with 6-monthly check-ups; Medisave claimable up to $1250.
- At Glory Dental Surgery, we advise if you are suitable for implant, bridge or denture based on bone condition, health and budget. From $1800. There are 3 main alternatives for replacing lost teeth.
Q5: More about wisdom tooth - Do I need to remove it?
- Not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. If they are fully and properly erupted, well-aligned, and easy to clean, they can be kept.
- However, most wisdom teeth are impacted – they don't have enough space to erupt properly. Impacted wisdom teeth may cause gum swelling and decay due to lack of accessibility for cleaning. This is the usual cause of pain.
- You should consider removal if you have: Repeated pain, swelling or food trap behind molars; Decay on the wisdom tooth or molar in front; Gum infection (pericoronitis); Crowding / shifting of other teeth.
- At Glory Dental, we recommend removing impacted wisdom teeth as soon as they are spotted, instead of waiting till severe pain. We take 3D X-ray to assess position, Medisave claimable, sedation available. Mon-Sat 9AM-6PM at Katong Shopping Centre.
