Why Choose Us as Your Dentist of Choice
Google 5 Star Rating
We focus on 3 aspects that has made a big difference to our patients. The ‘Dental Experience’. From start to the end! Coupled with our focus on ‘being gentle and caring’ and giving ‘Value’ to our patients as what they see it. Our track record shows we are onto something meaningful.
If these three aspects are important to you, we welcome you to our Dental Clinic. While we do not want to over promise, we hope we can meet or go beyond your expectations to deserve yet another 5 Star rating from you.
You First then Your Teeth
For us, You are a Person! A real person with feelings and concerns. We do not jump to treating your tooth complaint straight away. We like to focus on you first and ‘know you’ and ‘understand you’, then and only then do we start to look at your dental problem.
We like to build long lasting relationships that are built on trust and ‘knowing you’ and NOT just a set a dental records. Our patients have been coming to us since 1984 not because we have their dental records BUT because we have their interest at heart. If you choose us, we like to build that special relationship with you too.

Everyone has a certain level of fear visiting the Dentist. You probably are no different. Dental Anxiety, as it is commonly referred to is a serious Dental condition. And sadly, most common reason being a traumatic experience in the past. Dr. Muruga, our Dentist has a Masters in Psychology and is very good at addressing your dental anxiety and fears.
If Fear or Dental Anxiety is keeping you from visiting the dentist, do give us a chance to help you. We take a Psychological approach and deal with your fears first and often treatment is deferred until your Fears are reduced to a comfortable level.
The Dentist
Dr. Muruga Dentist
Dr. Muruga is an Orthodontic Dentist and a Dental Psychologist apart from being a Dental GP. He has over 35 years of experience having graduated from the globally famous Manipal University, India in 1980. Dr. Muruga is best known for his charming personality and chair side charisma. He is very approachable and easy to talk to either in person or even a quick consult over the phone. Dr. M as he is popularly known is a man who wears many hats and he brings all his experiences from his various fields to serve the best treatment options for you.
With his Masters in Psychology, his approach is very much applying Psychology and Dentistry together for a unique experience. He listens to you and takes time to understand and get to know the ‘real’ you before prescribing any form of treatment. His unorthodox yet conservative approach is very endearing to his patients as they know he has got their best interest at heart. In an era of commercialization and profiteering, he is one dentist who is popular because he always proposes affordable treatment options. He has many a time turned down options of costly dental treatment; advising the patient against it due to his motto - ‘value for money’ to the patient.
He is a Dentist close to you once you are listed as a patient. Access via WhatsApp or a quick call for a quick consultation is a norm in the way he interacts with his patients.
To know Dr. Muruga is to love Dr. Muruga as he has this fatherly, older polished gentleman aura that you would want to unburden your anxieties. Don’t forget he is a Psychologist, a life-coach and Dentist all rolled into one to help you navigate your dental situation. He has developed a reputation for giving some quality tips and advice while you are on the Dental Chair.
It is not surprising then that he is particularly good with dental anxiety patients, helping them to identify and taking baby steps to overcome their fear of dental treatment. Kids love him because he has his way of connecting with them when he demonstrates how playful dental stuff can be.
A vegan, yoga practitioner and spiritual aspirant you can expect to have very interesting conversations with our Dr. M and most people are impressed with his youthful looks despite being in his 60s!

What our patients say about us
“From the moment I’d walked in the door I felt at ease. A very professional staff and a clean office. I had less than a wonderful experience with the dental work I’d already had in the KL over the past couple of years. Dr. Muruga is an artist. He’s patient, very gentle and talented. He spent well over examining and explaining all options for my current situation. I tend to be a nervous patient and he made sure I was calm and comfortable. The work was done precisely the first time. Had tooth extraction and fillings and looking forward to going back!”
“I am so happy with my overall dental experience here at Tropicana Dental Surgery. Dr.Muruga is absolutely wonderful and he kept me in touch with the whole process and me feel so comfortable as i had to get my wisdom tooth removed. It was such a pleasant experience from the beginning till the end of the procedure. This place is awesome in terms of their attention and knowledge of holistic dentistry. Amazing office, clean and comfortable. Highly recommended!!!”
“Wisdom tooth surgery - Dr Muruga and his team are very professional and helpful. It was a last minute decision for the surgery but the team was willing to stay up to ensure a painless procedure was put in place. The whole process was slow and painless and I felt at ease. Dr Muruga also make sure to tell me before he proceed to his next step. Shoutout to the whole team, thank you very much.”
“Have been coming to this place for past 10 years and I must say I have never looked for another doctor for my dental issues. Dr Muruga is very friendly, calms my nerves everytime I’m sat on the reclining chair, he makes me feel comfortable. Every visit is a wonderful experience. I can’t recommend this place enough to my friends.”
“Dr Muruga thank you for taking the pain away from my tooth. I had a filling done at another dental clinic and it was hurting so badly despite numerous visits at the other dentist Just one visit and the pain is gone. Also you were so gentle and reassuring and made my fear go away.
Thank You”
“A very nice and friendly dentist and his team. The place is so warm and friendly I needed to be reminded it was a dental clinic.”
“This clinic absolutely deserves a 5 stars rating. You can find experienced and professional doctor here as well as friendly and helpful dental assistant. I had my right upper part of impacted wisdom tooth extracted here and the doctor got it removed in less than an hour at a price I couldn’t find elsewhere. Dr.Muruga made me feel comfortable throughout the whole surgery. Many thanks to Tropicana Dental Surgery for such a pleasant experience.”
