About Bukit Timah Nam Seng Dental

Providing Quality Dental Care Since The 1950s

Bukit Timah Nam Seng Dental Surgery opened 70 years ago in Bukit Panjang and has built a trusted reputation among its patients for offering high-quality dental treatment at reasonable prices. 

 

Nam Seng Dental relocated to Beauty World Centre in the 1980s in order to expand its capacity to provide modern and efficient dental care. Our dental surgeons have a multitude of experience across various specializations from simple fillings, extractions, scaling and polishing, to restorative and more complex procedures like dentures, crowns, bridges, dental implants, wisdom tooth surgery, root canal treatment, teeth whitening and more.

 

We are also a CHAS dental clinic, and provide subsidies for patients with CHAS, Merdeka, or pioneer generation cards.

Nam Seng Dental History:

The late Mr Koh Eng Bah, was a Second Division Registered Dentist and the founder of Bukit Timah Nam Seng Dental Surgery in the 1950s. When patients think of Nam Seng Dental Surgery, they inevitably recall Mr Koh, in his white collared shirt and white long pants, working tirelessly to provide the best for each and everyone of his patients. Mr Koh Eng Bah was well loved by his patients for always putting them his priority, working through lunch time, even opening the clinic in the middle of the night for a patient with a broken denture or a toothache. He was adept in making his own dentures, setting up tooth by tooth beautifully, back when dental clinics do not frequently send their dentures to external labs for fabrication. Mr Koh constantly invited his patients to share a table with the dentists and staff of Nam Seng Dental to enjoy a homecooked meal together during lunch.

Bukit Timah Nam Seng Dental Surgery was not just a dental clinic, but a homely community. Mr Koh Eng Bah worked till he was 85 years old, and even after his retirement, he would frequent the clinic to sit and talk with his patients, or rather, friends. When memory started failing him in his late years, he would somehow still remember the names of his patients and the dentures he had made for them. Bukit Timah Nam Seng Dental Surgery is Mr Koh Eng Bah’s legacy, and his work ethic and admirable reputation that he built for the clinic is something that our dentists will always look up to and inspire to follow. Bukit Timah Nam Seng Dental Surgery is now run by Mr Koh Eng Bah’s son, Dr Koh Eng Kian.
