The issue to me is, if you need major work doing, are you prepared to stay for an extended period or make multiple trips there, and what happens if something goes wrong and you need emergency treatment? (I've made the same point on cosmetic surgery threads, especially having been through that myself in good old England.)

I can give you several names of Singapore-based dentists that my friends use for routine work, root canal work, wisdom teeth, etc. Most of them are in "local" surgeries, not the expatty ones where they charge you a fortune because they know your company provides insurance.

I go to mine because he was my routine dentist when I was there, then did my major cosmetic work, and I trust him and his lovely staff to look after me. I always stop over on the way back from the UK so it doesn't cost me a flight but, if I needed more major work, it would be worth paying. Koala Kim goes to him too, at my recommendation. drstevenang.com

(And on a whole other topic, I'm getting my eyes checked out there next week too. I have a slight bleed in the back of one eye and my friend's dad is an eye surgeon, so I'm getting a second opinion )
