Medisave Claims for Dental Surgery

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 claimable from Medisave is subject to the surgical table and the complexity of the procedure.

In the event if you do not have a Medisave account or there is  insufficient Medisave fund to cover the dental procedure, you may utilize the Medisave from your immediate family members such as your spouse, parents, or child. In such a case, this immediate family member would require to present his IC and be present at the clinic to sign on the Medisave claim form. Please note that the use of Medisave is also subject to the Medisave withdrawal limits.

CPF Board has advised the accredited clinic to collect all dental fees upfront.

We will assist patients in submitting the Medisave claims. It takes 3 weeks for the claim to be processed and approved. We will issue a cheque to the patient for the amount approved for the Medisave claim upon receipt of the payment from the CPF Board.

Please note that the patient is required to come to the clinic to collect the cheque and acknowledge receipt of payment.

Some of the common procedures claimable under the Medisave Scheme are:

• Surgical extraction of teeth/roots
• Wisdom teeth removal
• Dental implant surgery
• Bone grafting

The above table is only a general guide and the final amount may vary depending on the complexity of the case and subject to final approval from the CPF Board.
