About Dr Benedict Ong
Dr Benedict Ong is a graduate of the National University of Singapore. His early career took him through the Singapore Armed Forces and the National University Hospital, where he developed strong clinical foundations across a wide range of dental disciplines. Today, Dr Benedict focuses on surgery and endodontics, two areas that combine technical precision with a meaningful, often life-changing impact on patients. He is particularly passionate about relieving pain and helping patients regain the confidence to smile, eat and speak comfortably. His approach is patient-first and relationship-driven. Rather than treating individual issues in isolation, he takes the time to understand each patient's broader oral health and personal goals, building long-term relationships rooted in honesty, trust and individualised care.

Beyond the clinic
Outside the clinic, Dr Benedict is committed to staying active, whether it's running, training at the gym or playing tennis. He believes the same discipline that drives a good fitness routine also makes for great clinical care.
Family time is equally important. He values the quiet moments spent with loved ones as a reminder of why long-term health and confidence really matter.
His philosophy: be honest, be thorough, and treat every patient the way you would treat your own family.
Frequently asked questions
Is root canal treatment painful?
Modern root canal treatment is typically no more uncomfortable than a regular filling. Dr Benedict uses effective local anaesthesia and a gentle, methodical technique, most patients are surprised at how comfortable it is.
Do I really need to remove my wisdom teeth?
Not always. Wisdom teeth only need removal if they're impacted, causing pain, repeated infections, decay, or crowding. Dr Benedict will assess with X-rays and only recommend extraction when it's clearly justified.
What should I do in a dental emergency?
Call the clinic as soon as possible. For severe pain, swelling, trauma, or a knocked-out tooth, we'll do our best to see you the same day. In the meantime, manage pain with paracetamol and apply a cold compress for swelling.
How long does recovery from oral surgery take?
Most patients are back to normal activities within 2 to 3 days after a routine extraction. More complex surgery may take up to a week. You'll receive clear aftercare instructions and a follow-up plan.
