Medisave Claims for Dental Surgery

Specialist Dental Group is accredited by the Singapore Ministry of Health as a day surgery facility. Patients who are Singaporeans or Permanent Residents of Singapore may be able to claim a portion of their surgical expenses from their Medisave Account.

Wisdom teeth surgery, implant surgery, bone grafting, removal of cysts, and biopsies may be claimable under Medisave. The exact amount would depend on the complexity of the procedure. The claim is based on a per surgery and not per tooth basis.

In the event that you do not have a Medisave account or your Medisave Balance is not sufficient to cover the dental bill, your immediate family members may use their Medisave to settle it. Immediate family members refer to your spouse, parents, or child. Please note that the use of Medisave is still subject to the Medisave withdrawal limits.

Our clinic's policy is to collect the fees upfront. We will then assist patients in submitting the Medisave claims. It takes between two to three weeks for the claim to be processed. Once approved, we will issue a cheque to the patient for the amount approved for the Medisave claim.

Patients would need to come to the clinic to collect the cheque and acknowledge receipt of payment.
