Subsidies, Medisave, and Insurances
Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS)
All Tanglin Dental clinics accept CHAS, MG and PG cards for dental subsidies.
The Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) provides eligible Singapore Citizens - including Pioneer Generation (PG) and Merdeka Generation (MG) cardholders — with subsidies for a wide range of dental treatments.
There are four CHAS cards that offer dental benefits:
CHAS Orange
CHAS Blue
Merdeka Generation (MG)
Pioneer Generation (PG)
CHAS subsidies help lower the cost of both preventive care (scaling and polishing, X-rays, consultations) and more complex dental treatments such as root canals, crowns, and dentures. Visit us to speak with our dentists about how you can make the most of your CHAS benefits to maintain and improve your oral health in a sustainable and affordable way.

Medisave
All Tanglin Dental clinics are Medisave accredited clinics.
Medisave is a national savings scheme under the Central Provident Fund (CPF) that helps Singaporeans pay for approved surgical treatments.
MediSave for Dental Treatment
MediSave can be used to partially or fully offset the cost of eligible surgical dental procedures for Singaporeans, PRs and their families.
The amount claimable depends on the type and complexity of the procedure, in accordance with Ministry of Health (MOH) guidelines.
Common MediSave-claimable dental treatments include:
Wisdom tooth surgery
Surgical extraction of teeth and retained roots
Dental implants
Gum surgery (periodontal surgery)
Crown lengthening procedures
At Tanglin Dental, we make the MediSave claim process straightforward and hassle-free. Our team will assess your eligibility, advise you on the claimable amount, and submit the necessary documentation on your behalf, so you can focus on your treatment and recovery.
