Dental Implant Cost in Yishun: Price Breakdown & Medisave
$3,000 – $6,000
Titanium implants vary by origin (European vs Asian brands). Premium brands cost $1,500–$2,500 more but offer better longevity and aesthetic outcomes.
If jawbone is thin or damaged, bone grafting adds $1,000–$2,500. This is essential for implant stability and determined only after imaging.
Zirconia crowns ($800–$1,200) look more natural than porcelain-fused-to-metal ($500–$800) but cost more.
Implant specialists with 10+ years charge 20–30% more than general dentists, but success rates are significantly higher.
| Option | Cost |
|---|---|
| Single implant with crown | $3,500 – $5,500 |
| Implant bridge (2–3 teeth on one implant) | $5,000 – $7,000 |
| All-on-4 full-arch implants (entire jaw) | $15,000 – $25,000 |

Dental Implant Procedure: What Happens Step by Step
- 1
Consultation and imaging
30–45 minutesYou'll meet the dentist, discuss your missing tooth, and have CBCT or 3D imaging taken to assess bone density, sinuses, and nerves. This determines if bone grafting is needed and whether you're a candidate. Your medical history (diabetes, smoking, medications) is reviewed.
- 2
Bone grafting (if required)
45–90 minutes surgery; 3–6 months healingIf bone is insufficient, synthetic bone material or your own bone is grafted into the jaw. This integrates over 3–6 months before implant surgery can proceed. Not all patients need this step—only those with significant bone loss.
- 3
Implant placement surgery
30–60 minutes surgeryUnder local or general anaesthesia, a small hole is drilled into the jawbone and the titanium implant post (resembling a screw) is inserted. The gum is closed, and the implant is left to integrate with the bone (osseointegration). You'll go home the same day.
- 4
Osseointegration period
3–6 monthsOver 3–6 months, your bone grows around the implant, creating a permanent anchor. You'll have temporary crown or nothing visible while this happens. You'll return for checkups every 2–4 weeks to monitor healing.
- 5
Crown placement
1–2 weeks (including lab fabrication); 1–2 appointmentsOnce fully integrated, an abutment (connector) is attached to the implant, and a custom crown (artificial tooth) is placed on top. This final crown is shaped and coloured to match your natural teeth and bite.
Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants? Honest Assessment
Good candidates
- Missing one or more teeth with healthy adjacent teeth; non-smoker or willing to quit for 6 weeks pre- and post-op
- Sufficient jawbone density (minimum 10 mm height and 5 mm width); no uncontrolled diabetes or immunosuppression
- Good oral hygiene habits and realistic expectations; can commit to 3–6 months healing without strenuous activity
- Medically fit for local or general anaesthesia; willing to follow post-op care (soft diet, salt rinses, no smoking)
May need extra assessment
- Smokers and those with diabetes — require extra preoperative assessment and may have slower healing; your dentist will advise if implant success risk is acceptable
- Gum disease or bone loss — bone grafting may be recommended before implant placement to improve long-term success
- Bisphosphonate medications (for osteoporosis) — require specialist consultation; implant is usually still possible but timing matters
