Hello! I’m Dr Louisa Chiong.
I graduated from the University of Otago in New Zealand, where I received my dental training. After graduation, I spent several years working overseas under a specialist prosthodontist. That experience allowed me to deepen my skills and also gave me the opportunity to meet patients from many different cultures and backgrounds, which has been one of the most rewarding parts of my journey in dentistry.
Eventually, I returned home to Singapore to continue my mum’s legacy at Eli Dental, a practice that has always believed in caring for patients like family. Being able to build on that foundation of trust and service means a lot to me.
Clinically, my interests are in crowns and bridges, as well as oral surgery. I enjoy the precision and planning involved in restoring teeth and helping patients regain both function and confidence in their smiles.
Ironically, I’m actually quite nervous about receiving injections and dental treatment myself! Because of that, I understand very personally how anxious many patients feel when they sit in the dental chair. It’s something I always keep in mind during treatment, and I do my best to be gentle, patient, and reassuring throughout every visit. At the end of the day, my goal is simple: to make every dental visit a little less scary and a little more comfortable for everyone who walks through our doors.
大家好，我是钟晓婷医生。
我毕业于新西兰的奥塔哥大学牙学院（University of Otago）。毕业之后，我在海外一位口腔修复专科医生的诊所工作了几年。在那段时间里，我不仅在临床上获得了很好的学习机会，也有幸接触到来自不同文化与背景的患者，这是我从事牙科工作中非常珍惜的一部分经历。
后来，我回到新加坡，在益来牙科与家人一起继续这份事业。益来牙科是由我的母亲创立的诊所，一直以来都秉持着以人为本、细心照顾每一位患者的理念。能够延续这份信任与传统，对我来说意义深远。
在临床方面，我特别关注牙冠与牙桥修复，以及口腔外科治疗。我很享受修复治疗中需要细致规划与精准操作的过程，因为它不仅能恢复牙齿的功能，也能帮助患者重新找回微笑的自信。
有趣的是，其实我自己也会对打针和牙科治疗感到紧张！正因为如此，我特别能理解许多患者在牙椅上的不安和焦虑。在治疗过程中，我总是提醒自己要更加温和、耐心，并尽量让患者感到安心。
对我来说，最重要的一件事很简单：希望每一位走进诊所的患者，都能觉得看牙不再那么可怕，而是一次更安心、更舒适的体验。
