For patients aged 60+ New for dental careFlexi-MediSaveUp to $400 a year for eligible root canal treatment and permanent crowns.
You may use your own MediSave or your spouse’s MediSave when both of you are aged 60 or above. The $400 is the prevailing annual limit per patient—not an amount guaranteed for each procedure.
How Flexi-MediSave works for dental care
Who: patients aged 60 and above with a MediSave account. Your spouse’s MediSave can be used if they are also 60 or above.
What: root canal treatment and permanent crowns at CHAS dental clinics (all Teeth Q clinics) and public healthcare institutions, from 1 June 2026. It does not cover other dental work such as scaling, fillings, simple extractions or veneers.
How much: up to $400 in a calendar year. This is your total Flexi-MediSave limit for the year, so any amount already used for other eligible outpatient care reduces the balance, and it pays part of the bill rather than the whole.
Order: your CHAS, Merdeka Generation or Pioneer Generation subsidy is applied first, Flexi-MediSave is then used towards the remaining balance, and you pay the rest.
At the clinic: bring your NRIC and CHAS, MG or PG card; the clinic checks your eligibility, applies the subsidy and prepares the MediSave authorisation for you to sign.
Example: a CHAS Orange cardholder whose root canal treatment costs $950 pays about $560 after the CHAS subsidy; using $400 of Flexi-MediSave brings the out-of-pocket amount to about $160 (MOH illustration; Teeth Q fees and your subsidy are confirmed at assessment).
