Dental Implants

At OSD, a single Straumann titanium implant starts from $4,905 and a zirconia implant from $5,995. This includes the implant, surgery, porcelain crown, and our in-house ceramist — not just the fixture.

All-on-X full-arch replacements start from $18,000. Costs vary depending on whether bone grafting or additional procedures are needed, which we assess during consultation.

Yes. Eligible Singaporeans and PRs can claim up to $1,120 per implant surgery from MediSave, subject to sufficient balance and CPF Board approval. This applies to each implant placed — so if you need two implants, you can claim for both.

MediSave covers the surgical component; the crown and other costs are out-of-pocket or can be spread across our flexi-payment plan.

Most patients report minimal discomfort.

Local anaesthesia ensures you feel no pain during placement, and post-operative discomfort is typically manageable with standard pain relief.

Sedation is available for anxious patients.

Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two. Some swelling and mild discomfort is typical for the first 48–72 hours, manageable with standard pain relief. We provide detailed aftercare instructions and check in during healing.

The implant integrates with your bone over 3–4 months before the final crown is placed. During this time, a temporary restoration keeps things functional and presentable.

The most significant long-term risk is peri-implantitis — infection around the implant that causes bone loss over time. It's the most common reason implants fail years later, and most patients have never heard of it.

We design against it from day one: adequate gum tissue for a protective seal, correct positioning for effective cleaning, and solid bone foundation to prevent gradual loss.

Short-term surgical risks are low — implants have success rates exceeding 95%.

With proper care, dental implants can last decades — often a lifetime.

Straumann provides a lifetime guarantee on their implants, reflecting their confidence in long-term performance.

If a tooth has been missing for months or years, the jawbone where it sat has likely receded. Bone grafting rebuilds that foundation so the implant can be positioned where it should be — not just where there's room.

It's a separate procedure done before implant placement, and adds to the overall timeline and cost. We assess bone density with 3D imaging during your first consultation, so you'll know upfront whether grafting is needed.

Yes. Our approach considers aesthetics from the start: crown colour, shape, how the crown emerges from the gum, and facial proportions.

Most healthy adults are good candidates.

We assess bone density, gum health, medical history, and aesthetic goals during consultation. If bone grafting is needed, we'll discuss that upfront.

Yes. We use Neodent zirconia implants (from the Straumann Group) for patients who prefer a metal-free option.

Zirconia is tooth-coloured, which means no risk of grey showing through thin gums — this matters most for front teeth. It also integrates well with gum tissue, often with excellent soft tissue response. Zirconia implants start from $5,995, inclusive of surgery, crown, and our in-house ceramist.

Titanium remains more versatile for most cases, but if metal-free matters to you, we'll assess whether zirconia is suitable during consultation.

Titanium implants are proven, versatile, and suitable for most cases.

Zirconia implants are ideal for thin gum tissue, front teeth, metal sensitivities, or patients preferring metal-free options.

Your dentist will recommend based on your specific situation.

Straumann has decades of clinical research, excellent long-term data, and offers a lifetime guarantee on their implants. Their SLActive surface promotes faster bone integration, which matters for healing time and long-term stability.

We're a Straumann Preferred Partner — meaning we work closely with their team on complex cases.

For patients who prefer metal-free options, we use Neodent zirconia implants from the same Straumann Group.

Sometimes, yes. If the tooth is failing but the surrounding bone is healthy and there's no spreading infection, same-day placement is often possible — and preferable. It preserves bone and tissue, and for front teeth, typically produces a better aesthetic result. We'll assess your case during consultation.

Typically 4–8 months from initial consultation to final crown placement, including healing time. Some cases qualify for faster timelines.

We'll provide a detailed schedule after your assessment.

Implants don't require damaging healthy adjacent teeth (unlike bridges) and don't slip or require adhesives (unlike dentures).

They also prevent bone loss in the jaw, which occurs with other replacement options.

Yes. Both Straumann and Neodent implants are supported by extensive clinical research and have success rates exceeding 95%.

They're considered one of the most predictable treatments in modern dentistry.

Dr. Jerry Lim, Dr. Ronnie Yap, Dr. Kenneth Goh, and Dr. Leroy Kiang all perform implant procedures.

Dr. Jerry has placed thousands of implants over 19+ years and trained dentists across Singapore in implant techniques — that same philosophy and standard of care is embedded in how our entire team works.
