A dental crown caps a weakened or heavily repaired tooth to restore its shape and strength. MOH benchmarks price crowns at $750 to $1,400, while CHAS subsidises $410 to $625 depending on tier. Crowns are not MediSave-claimable, and how long one lasts depends on fit, hygiene and bite.

All figures on this page trace to MOH's published fee benchmarks and the CHAS subsidy schedule. Find clinics offering this treatment, cross-checked against the Singapore Dental Council register, on the region and planning-area pages linked from the homepage.

Crown vs Veneer vs Bridge: Choosing the Right Restoration

A dental crown covers the entire visible portion of a tooth, a veneer covers only the front (facial) surface, and a bridge replaces a missing tooth by anchoring to the adjacent teeth. Each restores a different structural problem. MOH benchmarks price a permanent crown at $750 to $1,400; veneer and bridge fees are clinic-published, not government-benchmarked.

Crown Aftercare and Lifespan: How to Make a Crown Last

A dental crown needs the same brushing and flossing as a natural tooth, with extra attention to the margin where the crown meets the tooth, since that edge accumulates bacterial plaque. Systematic reviews report five-year crown survival between about 92% and 97% depending on material; bruxism and poor margin hygiene are documented factors that shorten lifespan.

Frequently asked questions

Is a dental crown claimable under MediSave in Singapore?
No. Crowns are not MediSave-claimable. MOH benchmarks price them at $750 to $1,400, while CHAS subsidises $410 to $625 depending on tier.
What is the main structural difference between a crown, a veneer and a bridge?
A crown covers the entire visible portion of a tooth, a veneer covers only the front-facing surface, and a bridge replaces a missing tooth entirely by anchoring a false tooth to crowns on the adjacent teeth.
Is a veneer only used for cosmetic reasons?
No. While veneers are commonly used to change the appearance of a tooth's front surface, they are also used functionally, for example to restore and protect tooth structure lost to anterior wear or erosion.
Does MediSave cover the cost of a crown, veneer or bridge?
Generally no, because none of these restorations sits on MOH's Table of Surgical Procedures. The one exception is Flexi-MediSave, which since mid-2026 has covered permanent crowns (and root canal treatment) up to $400 per year for patients aged 60 and above; this exception does not extend to veneers or bridges.
How much does a permanent crown cost in Singapore?
MOH's published benchmark for a permanent crown is $750 to $1,400, excluding GST. CHAS cardholders (Orange, Blue, Merdeka Generation or Pioneer Generation tiers) can access a subsidised rate of $410 to $625, up to four crowns per year; CHAS Green is not included in the dental subsidy schedule.
How does a dental bridge compare with a dental implant for a missing tooth?
A bridge does not require surgery but involves reducing and crowning the two healthy teeth adjacent to the gap, while an implant leaves those teeth untouched but requires surgical placement and sufficient jawbone. Which is suitable depends on the adjacent teeth's condition and available bone, as assessed by the treating dentist.
How do I clean around a dental crown?
The same way as a natural tooth — brushing twice a day and cleaning between the teeth daily — with particular attention to the margin where the crown meets the tooth, since that seam accumulates plaque more readily than a smooth tooth surface.
How do I find a dentist in Singapore who mentions dental crowns?
290 of the 719 clinics listed on dentistsg.com mention dental crowns on their own website, most of them in Orchard, Downtown Core, Bedok. Pick a suburb below to see them with ratings, hours and contact details. A mention is the clinic's own statement, not a verified treatment menu.
Does dentistsg.com list prices for dental crowns?
No. Cost ranges on this page come from MOH's published fee benchmarks and the CHAS subsidy schedule. dentistsg.com does not publish individual clinics' prices or compare clinics on price; ask the clinic for a written quote.
