CHAS Dental Subsidy in Singapore
CHAS provides subsidies for selected dental treatments for eligible cardholders. Depending on eligibility and the treatment required, these may include services such as tooth extractions, dentures, fillings, scaling and polishing, and eligible treatment involving natural teeth.
CHAS does not cover dental implants or implant crowns.
Eligible cardholders may still receive CHAS subsidies for other treatment associated with their overall dental care, such as tooth extractions before implant surgery, subject to CHAS eligibility and applicable claim limits.
Comparing Medisave vs. CHAS Subsidies for Dental Implants
Medisave and CHAS can help with different parts of your dental treatment. Here’s how the two schemes compare when planning for dental implant costs.
| Aspect | Medisave | CHAS |
|---|---|---|
| Dental implant treatment | May be claimable for the eligible surgical component, up to $1,950 per implant, subject to applicable limits | ❌ Does not cover the implant or implant crown |
| Other dental treatment | Depends on the procedure and MediSave eligibility | ✅ May cover other eligible dental treatment, e.g. tooth extractions |
| Family account | May use approved family members' MediSave, subject to requirements | Not applicable |
Additional Costs to Keep in Mind
Even after Medisave and CHAS subsidies, patients should be mindful of additional expenses. These may include:
- Non-surgical consultation fees (not Medisave-claimable)
- Temporary prosthetics
- Sedation or anesthesia fees
- Long-term maintenance appointments
Understanding these additional costs helps you budget realistically and avoid financial surprises.
