CHAS Dental in Jurong East: What Is Covered & How to Claim Your Subsidy (2026)
By Dr Nicholas Chang · Sincere Dental Jurong East · 8 min read
Sincere Dental is a CHAS-accredited clinic in Jurong East, offering subsidised dental care for eligible Singapore Citizens
Dental care in Singapore does not have to be expensive. If you hold a CHAS card — Blue, Orange, Merdeka Generation, or Pioneer Generation — you are entitled to subsidised dental treatment at accredited clinics, including Sincere Dental in Jurong East. Yet many eligible patients are unsure which treatments are covered and how the claiming process works. This guide answers both questions clearly.
What Is the CHAS Dental Scheme?
The Community Health Assist Scheme (CHAS) is a Singapore government initiative that subsidises medical and dental care at participating private clinics. It is designed to make essential healthcare more accessible for lower- and middle-income Singapore Citizens. CHAS is administered by the Ministry of Health (MOH) and is separate from Medisave.

How to Claim CHAS Dental Subsidies at Sincere Dental
Book an appointment at Sincere Dental Jurong East.
Bring your CHAS card and NRIC to the appointment.
Present your CHAS card at the reception counter before treatment begins.
Our team verifies your eligibility and applies the appropriate subsidy.
You pay only the co-payment amount — the subsidy is deducted automatically.
Can CHAS and Medisave Be Used Together?
In certain circumstances, CHAS and Medisave can be used for different treatments in the same visit. For example, a CHAS cardholder requiring both scaling (covered by CHAS) and a wisdom tooth surgical extraction (covered by Medisave) may apply both schemes at the same clinic. Our team will advise you on which scheme applies to each treatment and how to maximise your entitlements.
