Neodent Implant Singapore Price: What to Expect in 2026
What Does a Neodent Implant Actually Cost in Singapore?
If you have been searching for the Neodent implant Singapore price, you want a plain number — not a "call us for a quote" brush-off. So here it is: at Smile Central Clinic, a Neodent implant package (implant plus porcelain-fused-to-metal crown) costs $1,950, GST already included. Nothing is added on top at checkout.
For context, most Singapore clinics price implant packages before GST, so the final bill is higher than the headline figure. With the Neodent package here, what you see is what you pay.
There is a second piece of good news: for eligible cases, that $1,950 is fully payable using Medisave. That means no cash outlay at all if your Medisave balance covers it. The clinic files the Medisave paperwork — you do not have to chase the CPF Board yourself.
How Neodent Compares to Other Implant Options
Smile Central Clinic offers three implant systems. Understanding the differences helps you have a more useful conversation with your dentist.
| Implant System | Package Price | GST Included? | Medisave Usable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neodent | $1,950 | Yes — GST included | Up to $1,950 (full amount for eligible cases) |
| Osstem | $2,200 | No — GST on top | Up to $1,950 of the package |
| Straumann | $2,900 | No — GST on top | Up to $1,950 of the package |
All three packages include the implant and a porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crown. Osstem and Straumann are both established systems with strong clinical track records — so the choice between them is a clinical conversation with your dentist, not purely a budget decision. That said, for patients where Medisave coverage is the priority, the Neodent package is the only one where the entire cost can be absorbed by Medisave for eligible cases.
What the Package Covers — and What It Does Not
A Neodent implant at Smile Central Clinic includes:
- The Neodent implant fixture (the titanium post placed in the jaw)
- The abutment (the connector piece)
- A porcelain-fused-to-metal crown (the visible tooth)
What is assessed separately before the package applies:
- Consultation and X-rays — a consultation is $21–$31. If a CBCT scan (3D imaging) is needed to assess bone density and anatomy, the clinic will tell you the cost before proceeding.
- Bone grafting — if your jaw bone has resorbed and needs building up before the implant can be placed, this is a separate procedure with its own cost. Not every patient needs it. Your dentist will assess this at the consultation.
- Extraction of the remaining tooth root — if the failing tooth is still in place, extraction is charged separately. Anterior (front) extractions run $70–$120; posterior (back) $93–$164, both excluding GST.
The clinic will give you a written treatment plan with all costs itemised before any treatment begins. Nothing should come as a surprise.
How Medisave Works for Dental Implants
Medisave can be used for surgical dental procedures — and implant placement is classified as a surgical procedure. Here is how it works for Neodent specifically:
- The full $1,950 is payable using Medisave for eligible cases — implant and crown together.
- Your dentist will assess eligibility at the consultation. Not all clinical situations qualify, so the outcome for your own case depends on that assessment.
- The clinic submits the Medisave claim on your behalf. You do not need to log into CPF or handle forms yourself.
For Osstem and Straumann, up to $1,950 of the package can be paid from Medisave. The balance is a cash payment.
One common misconception: some patients have read elsewhere that Medisave covers the surgery but not the crown. For the Neodent package at Smile Central Clinic, that is not the case. The entire $1,950 — crown included — is payable using Medisave for eligible cases.
What to Expect During the Process
Getting a dental implant is not a single-visit procedure. Understanding the steps reduces anxiety considerably.
Step 1 — Consultation and assessment Your dentist checks your gum health, bone volume, and overall medical history. X-rays or a CBCT scan may be taken. If implants are suitable, you receive a written treatment plan.
Step 2 — Implant placement The titanium implant is placed into the jawbone under local anaesthesia. The area is numb during the procedure. Post-operative soreness in the days after is normal and typically managed with over-the-counter pain relief — your dentist will give you specific guidance.
Step 3 — Healing period (osseointegration) The implant fuses with the bone over several months. During this time a temporary solution may be provided depending on the location and your clinical situation.
Step 4 — Crown placement Once the implant has integrated, the abutment and porcelain-fused-to-metal crown are attached. This appointment is straightforward and comfortable.
The total timeline from placement to the final crown varies by patient — your dentist will give you a realistic estimate at the consultation.
Will It Hurt?
This is the most common question, and it deserves an honest answer.
During the implant placement, the area is numbed with local anaesthesia, so you should not feel sharp pain during the procedure. Pressure and movement are normal sensations. After the anaesthesia wears off, some soreness, mild swelling, and sensitivity in the area are expected for a few days. This is part of normal healing. Most patients manage this with standard pain relief.
If pain is severe or prolonged, or if you have other concerns after the procedure, you contact the clinic — not something to wait out alone.
CHAS and Other Subsidies
CHAS subsidies apply to a defined list of dental procedures and are typically used for scaling, fillings and extractions rather than implants. If you hold a CHAS, Pioneer Generation or Merdeka Generation card, bring it along — — your dentist will confirm which procedures in your overall treatment plan qualify for subsidy.
Smile Central Clinic accepts CHAS, Pioneer Generation and Merdeka Generation cards at all eight branches.
