Learn how to use your Cigna dental insurance in Singapore at Dentalis, located in Tanjong Pagar CBD. This guide explains how the claim process works, which treatments are usually covered, and how to submit your claim correctly for reimbursement.


Dentalis is experienced in supporting patients under Cigna Dental Provider Singapore arrangements, including Cigna Global, Cigna International, and Cigna panel plans. We provide clear guidance and claim-ready documentation to make the process smooth and stress-free.


This page is designed to help you use your Cigna dental insurance confidently at a trusted dental clinic in Singapore, with clarity on coverage and claims.


How Cigna Dental Insurance Works in Singapore

Cigna is a global health insurance company, and Cigna dental insurance is typically included as part of broader health insurance plans.


Your insurance coverage often includes covered preventive treatments such as dental check-ups, X-rays, scaling, and fillings. Coverage for complex treatments — and the total dental insurance cover available — depends on your employer benefits or individual policy.


In Singapore, Cigna dental insurance generally works in two ways:

1. Alliance Medinet–Cigna Panel (Cashless)

If your plan is under Alliance Medinet–Cigna, Dentalis can process claims directly with Alliance Medinet, allowing a cashless experience for patients, subject to your plan terms.


2. Cigna Card (Self-Claim)

For most Cigna Global, Cigna International, and Cigna direct plans, claims are handled on a self-claim basis, which means:

  • You pay Dentalis directly after treatment

  • Dentalis issues a detailed, itemised invoice

  • You submit your claim to Cigna via the official portal or your HR insurance system

  • Cigna reimburses you according to your plan limits


This self-claim structure gives you the freedom to receive quality care at Dentalis, even when direct billing is not available.


What Dental Treatments Are Usually Covered by Cigna

Every Cigna plan is different, which is why coverage should always be verified in advance. Whether a dental treatment is covered depends entirely on your specific policy.


Most plans include covered preventive care, while more complex treatments — such as crowns, dental implants, root canal treatment, or Invisalign — may require pre authorisation before treatment begins.


Commonly covered services may include:

  • Routine dental check-ups & examinations

  • X-rays

  • Fillings

  • Scaling & polishing


More extensive treatments may be included depending on your plan but often require pre-approval from Cigna.


Important: Always confirm your benefits before your visit. You can check via the Cigna Envoy portal or app, or please contact Cigna directly using the helpline or email listed on your membership card.
