Frequently Asked Questions

How much will I have to pay?

Consultation & Treatment Charges.
As treatment needs vary amongst patients, your dentist will propose a treatment plan for you after thoroughly assessing your oral condition at the in-office consultation. He/she will then be able to provide you with a more comprehensive and accurate estimate of the costs needed for your treatment.

As a general guide, your first consultation will cost approximately $20 to $30. These rates include consultation fees, sterile supplies and disposables used in the course of your clinical examination. Separate x-rays consultation and treatment charges will apply. Detailed financial counselling based on the treatment planned for you will be provided at your visit to the Centre.

What is Medisave and can I use Medisave to pay for my treatment?

Medisave is the national medical saving scheme which helps individuals set aside part of their income into the Medisave account to meet future personal or immediate family's hospitalization, day surgery and selected outpatient expenses. At NHG DentalCare, only day surgery procedures (for example surgical removal of wisdom teeth) can be covered by Medisave. Other non-surgical outpatient dental treatment procedures are currently not covered by the scheme.
