9/07/2019 Dr Marlene Teo is the best periodontist I know. Her detailed observation and diagnosis is very accurate and her warm personality always calms any nervousness that I have whenever I visit a dentist!. One last thing, her injection is not painful unlike what I had with most other dentists. She is simply the best! Cun Cun Wee

Treatments
Dental Implants
If you have missing teeth and are embarrassed by the need to wear a removable denture, then a dental implant is a periodontal treatment made for you. It can be placed in a way that it appears natural and harmonious with your natural teeth.
Periodontal Gum Treatment
If you have tender or bleeding gums, pus from gums, persistent bad breath, and gum recession, you may be showing the signs and symptoms of gum disease. If you don’t see a gum specialist in Singapore, it will lead to gum loss, shaky teeth, and eventual tooth loss.
Aesthetic Gum Procedures
A wonderful smile makes a lasting impression. It is not just the colour of your teeth that makes a great smile. Tooth length, which are affected by your gums, is just as important in designing the perfect smile for you. See a periodontist in Singapore as soon as possible.
