Kim's Dental Clinic (Clementi) ✓ ACRA Verified

Dental fees in Singapore vary considerably by procedure. A routine consultation typically runs S$20–50 at a polyclinic and S$50–120 at a private dental clinic, with scaling and polishing adding S$60–150. Common restorative work ranges from S$80–250 for a composite filling to S$800–2,500 for a porcelain crown. Orthodontic treatment (braces or Invisalign) typically costs S$3,500–8,000 for a full course. Medisave can be used for certain approved dental procedures — primarily surgical extractions and oral surgery — up to S$950 per year, but routine scaling, fillings, and cosmetic work are not claimable. CHAS subsidies apply at enrolled clinics for eligible Singapore Citizens and PRs. Confirm Kim's Dental Clinic (Clementi)'s specific fee schedule and whether CHAS or Medisave applies when you book.

No referral is needed to book a first appointment at a private dental clinic. Most patients call or WhatsApp directly to describe their concern and secure a slot. At the first visit, the dentist will conduct a clinical examination and may take X-rays to assess the full picture before recommending a treatment plan. If you have a complex medical history — such as blood-thinning medication, a heart condition, or a compromised immune system — it is worth mentioning this when booking so the dentist can prepare accordingly. For specialist procedures such as implants, complex extractions, or orthodontics, the clinic may refer you to a specialist registered with the Singapore Dental Council if the case falls outside their scope of practice.

Dentists in Singapore must be registered with the Singapore Dental Council (SDC) under the Dental Registration Act. Registration is publicly verifiable on the SDC's online register — search by the dentist's name to confirm current registration status and any conditions on practice. Dental specialists (orthodontists, oral surgeons, periodontists, endodontists, prosthodontists, and paediatric dentists) hold a separate specialist registration with the SDC. Confirm the consulting dentist's full name and SDC registration number directly with Kim's Dental Clinic (Clementi) before treatment, particularly for surgical or specialist procedures. No regulatory licences are currently listed for this provider on KakiList, so direct verification with the SDC register is advised.
