About Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry
Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry is a paediatric dental clinic located at i12 Katong Mall on East Coast Road, serving families across Singapore. It holds a 4.9/5 rating across 402 Google reviews — a robust sample that reflects consistent patient experience. No regulatory licences have been confirmed in the listing data, and ACRA registration has not been verified, so prospective patients should confirm the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence and the treating dentist's Singapore Dental Council (SDC) registration directly before booking.
For a first visit, parents typically contact the clinic via WhatsApp, phone, or the online form to describe the child's age, dental concern, or routine check-up need, and to book an appointment. Paediatric dental visits are structured to help younger children build comfort with the clinical environment before any examination or treatment begins. Common first-visit items include an oral health assessment, preventive fluoride application, fissure sealants, and guidance on brushing habits appropriate to the child's developmental stage. For anxious children or those requiring more involved treatment, sedation or behaviour-management options may be offered — confirm availability and cost when booking. Private paediatric dental consultations are not covered under MediShield Life or Integrated Shield Plans as a rule, though MediSave can be used for selected surgical and inpatient dental procedures. The Child Development Account (CDA) can be used at approved dental providers — check whether Royce Dental is an approved CDA merchant.
Contact the clinic via WhatsApp or the online enquiry form to confirm appointment availability, the consulting dentist's SDC registration, and accepted payment methods before your child's first visit.

Honestly, Dr Shanelle was amazing. She was professional, effective, and incredibly reassuring throughout the entire visit. I’ve never been someone who regularly visits the dentist, so this experience really changed my perspective. Meeting a dentist like her can genuinely be life-changing. Huge thank you to Dr Shanelle and the friendly, welcoming staff at Royce Katong for making the experience so comfortable.

I think a lot of people have been afraid of dentists since we were kids and me too same thus choice of dentist is very important for me. And .. Dr Chua Si Hui is one of the best dentist in my life. She calms me down with her gentle voice and explanations, allowing me to go through the procedure without too much anxiety. Highly recommended for anyone with dentist phobia. Thanks Dr. Chua , assistant and counter staff for your delightful service. 🙏

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry charge?›
Paediatric dental fees at private clinics in Singapore typically run S$80–150 for a first consultation, S$50–120 for follow-up reviews, S$60–150 for preventive fluoride and fissure sealant applications, S$80–200 for fillings, and S$300–800+ for extractions or pulp therapy under local anaesthesia. Sedation or general anaesthesia for highly anxious children is a significant additional cost — typically S$800–3,000+ depending on the setting and duration. Dental X-rays are usually billed separately at S$30–80 per film or S$80–200 for a full-mouth set. GST applies on private dental services. Most private paediatric dental treatment is self-pay; however, the Child Development Account (CDA) can offset costs at approved merchants, and certain surgical procedures may be MediSave-claimable. Request an itemised treatment plan before any work begins. See the full paediatric dentistry cost guide for Singapore →
Is Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry MOH-licensed and how do I verify the dentist?›
Every legitimate dental clinic must hold an MOH Healthcare Services Licence under the Healthcare Services Act, and every practising dentist must be registered with the Singapore Dental Council (SDC) — verifiable on the SDC public register at sdc.gov.sg. No licences are confirmed in the current listing data for Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry, so it is important to confirm both the clinic's MOH licence and the treating dentist's SDC registration directly with the clinic before booking. For paediatric specialists, look for a dentist with fellowship or advanced training in paediatric dentistry (e.g. MFDS, MDS in Paediatric Dentistry, or overseas equivalents recognised by SDC). Confirm this at enquiry. Verify the clinic's MOH Healthcare Services Licence on the MOH licensee directory and the named dentist's SDC entry before your child's first appointment.
How do I use MediSave or insurance at Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry?›
Most routine private paediatric dental treatment — consultations, fillings, fluoride, fissure sealants — is not claimable under MediShield Life, Integrated Shield Plans, or standard MediSave outpatient limits. MediSave can, however, be used for certain dental surgical procedures (such as surgical extraction of impacted teeth) when performed in an approved setting, subject to MediSave surgical withdrawal limits. The Child Development Account (CDA), available to Singapore Citizen children, can be used at Baby Bonus-approved healthcare and dental providers — confirm whether Royce Dental Centre Katong Kids Dentistry is an approved CDA merchant before your visit, as this can meaningfully offset out-of-pocket costs for younger patients. For any planned procedure beyond a routine check-up, ask the clinic for a written treatment estimate itemising each item and its payable amount before giving consent. Skipping this step is the most common source of billing surprises in private dental care.
