FEE GUIDE

Non-covered Treatment Fees

We publish our standard fees, along with what is included and what is charged separately, so you can check before you visit

An estimate you hear for the first time in the consultation room is hard to compare. So that you can check before you visit, Yeonhap Dental Clinic publishes its standard fees along with what is included and what is charged separately, and we first write down why each item is added and when it is not.

Non-covered treatments are items that are not covered by National Health Insurance, so the clinic sets the fee, and we post them on our website as required by the Medical Service Act. The amounts below are standard fees; the actual fee is given as an itemized estimate after an oral exam and any necessary imaging.

Amounts in Korean won · Teeth whitening is a VAT-inclusive amount (supply price KRW 270,000 + VAT); all other items are VAT-exempt

Our Rule

Three principles behind our fees at Yeonhap Dental Clinic

The same principles apply from an implant to a single filling.

01We leave out items you don't needIf an exam shows an item isn't needed, we take it out of the estimate. Bone grafting and sinus lift are the main examples, and we don't fill a cavity that can safely be monitored.
02On your first visit, you can have the exam, hear our explanation, and go homeWe never push you to start treatment that day. We explain the estimate item by item and give it in writing if you ask, so you can take it home, compare, and decide.
03Warranties go together with regular check-upsThe warranty of 3 to 5 years on implant fixtures and 2 years on crowns and inlays applies to patients who keep up their 6-month check-ups.

First Visit

What exams do I get on my first visit, and what do they cost?

On your first visit we look at the whole mouth with an oral exam and a panoramic X-ray, and add a 3D CBCT scan and a Q-ray exam if needed. The table below shows which exams are covered by insurance and which are non-covered (not covered by NHI).

Implant

How much does a dental implant cost?

The cost of one implant is the total of the fixture (artificial root), the abutment (post), and the crown. Yeonhap Dental Clinic uses Osstem, Dentis, and MegaGen products, chosen at your consultation based on the site and your bone condition. The amounts below are per implant and include a custom abutment and crown.

The implant amounts above include a custom abutment and crown. If bone grafting or a sinus lift is needed, the fees below are added separately.

Bone Graft · Sinus Lift

How much does bone grafting for an implant cost?

We first check whether an implant can be placed without grafting by adjusting its position and angle within the bone that remains. The fees below are added only when bone grafting or a sinus lift is needed.

TypeFeeCriteria
No bone graftKRW 0When the CT shows a site with 2 mm of bone left on the cheek side and 1.5 mm on the tongue side
Bone graft · small amountKRW 100,000When only a small amount of graft material is needed
Bone graft · simpleKRW 200,000To fill the gap that remains when an implant is placed right after extraction
Bone graft · complexKRW 300,000When a lot of bone has to be built and a barrier membrane is used
Bone graft · extensiveKRW 500,000When a great deal of bone has to be built, a barrier membrane is used, and it is firmly fixed
Sinus lift (simple, crestal approach)KRW 500,000When the sinus membrane is healthy and can be lifted with water pressure
Sinus lift (complex, lateral approach)KRW 800,000–1,000,000When direct inspection and management are needed because of the membrane condition, a sinus lesion, or perforation during surgery

Bone grafting and sinus lift are non-covered even with the NHI implants for patients aged 65 and over. On your first day we look at the CT images together to explain which case applies to you, and we can give you this in writing if you wish.

Insurance

How much do NHI-covered implants and dentures for age 65+ cost?

Patients aged 65 and over may receive National Health Insurance coverage for implants and dentures, depending on the conditions. The standard patient copayment is 30%, and it varies with eligibility and your usage history.

TypePatient copayment (at the 30% NHI rate)Notes
NHI implant (1 tooth)About KRW 430,000Medical Aid Type 1 about KRW 140,000 · Type 2 about KRW 290,000
For partially edentulous patients · 2 implants per lifetime, upper and lower combined
Bone grafting, sinus lift, and bridge pontics are non-covered
Complete denture · metal baseAbout KRW 480,000 per archMedical Aid Type 1 about KRW 80,000 · Type 2 about KRW 240,000
In principle, once every 7 years for the same jaw
Partial dentureAbout KRW 500,000 per archMedical Aid Type 1 about KRW 83,000 · Type 2 about KRW 250,000
When coverage criteria such as the remaining teeth and prosthesis design are met; in principle, once every 7 years
Temporary complete dentureAbout KRW 93,000 per archMedical Aid Type 1 about KRW 15,000 · Type 2 about KRW 46,000
When coverage criteria are met, before the final NHI denture is made

From January 2027, NHI coverage of 2 implants is scheduled to expand to completely edentulous patients aged 65 and over (for those who have used an NHI complete denture, 7 years must have passed since it was provided). For the detailed conditions, see the NHI implant article in the related links below. We plan the 2 NHI implants so that they sit where they can later support an implant denture. For the estimated total of a full-arch treatment with insurance applied, see the next table.

Full Arch · Implant Denture

How much do complete dentures, implant dentures, full-arch implants, and three-segment fixed implants cost?

There are four main ways to restore an entire jaw. Complete dentures and implant dentures are removable, while full-arch and three-segment fixed restorations are fixed in the mouth. Cost and repair methods differ with the number of implants and how the prosthesis is divided.

Lower-jaw comparison: complete denture (no implants) · implant denture (2 implants) · full-arch implants (4) · three-segment fixed (6)

Included costs: The example estimates are the estimated total per jaw, including the implants (fixture, custom abutment, crown), bridge pontics, dentures, and the expected bone grafting and sinus lift costs. For bone grafting and sinus lift, we estimated about KRW 500,000 for the whole lower jaw and about KRW 500,000–1,600,000 for the upper jaw depending on whether a sinus lift is done; the actual amount varies with the actual extent. Temporary denture: Charged separately when needed, KRW 300,000 per arch. When the coverage criteria for the NHI temporary complete denture are met, the patient copayment is about KRW 93,000. Partial denture: The cost of abutment-tooth crowns, when needed, is charged separately. NHI example: A conditional estimate for patients aged 65 and over, calculated with a patient copayment of about KRW 430,000 for one implant and about KRW 500,000 for a partial denture. NHI implants are limited to 2 per patient per lifetime, counting the upper and lower jaws together, and vary with your previous NHI usage history and the coverage criteria. For completely edentulous patients, this applies when the coverage criteria are met after the coverage expansion scheduled for January 2027. We explain the options available in an itemized estimate after checking the remaining teeth, bone condition, bite, and other factors.

If the bone allows, we consider the three-segment fixed type first, and we also compare full-arch implants according to placement constraints, cost, maintenance, and the patient's preference. We do not offer implant overdentures that use replaceable rubber rings (snap-on type).

Resin · Inlay · Crown · Whitening

How much do composite resin, inlays, crowns, and whitening cost?

We check the condition of your teeth with an oral exam, Q-ray, and other tools, and explain which areas need treatment and which can safely be monitored. Depending on the extent of the cavity and how much natural tooth remains, we choose the suitable option among composite resin, inlay, and crown.

Warranties on resin, inlays, and crowns apply to patients who keep up their 6-month check-ups.

Endodontics · Core

How much do root canal treatment and tooth reinforcement cost?

After root canal treatment, we reinforce the tooth's shape with a core and then place a separate crown; when it is hard to retain a core, we also use a fiber post. For pulpotomy and direct pulp capping, which preserve the nerve, we use MTA material.

TypeFeeNotes
Root canal treatment · retreatmentCovered by insurance
About KRW 9,000–42,000 per visit
Varies with the number of canals and the treatment steps done that day
No separate non-covered charge for the rubber dam or irrigation
GI core (glass ionomer)Covered by insurance
About KRW 6,000–12,000
Chosen when enough tooth wall remains to support the material
MTA material for pulp preservationKRW 50,000Used for pulpotomy and direct pulp capping. Not applicable to the sealer used to fill canals in root canal treatment
Resin coreKRW 50,000–100,000Chosen when more strength than GI is needed. The cost differs with the extent of lost tooth structure
Fiber post (core included)KRW 130,000A glass-fiber post used when more than half of the crown is lost and a core is hard to retain

The NHI copayment is an estimate based on the 30% adult NHI rate and varies with the extent of treatment, imaging, and treatment time. The root canal fee does not include the cost of a core or crown. The MTA material fee does not include the final composite restoration, inlay, or crown. The fiber post fee already includes the core, so no core fee is added on top.

FAQ

Non-covered fees: frequently asked questions

Q. Why does the price differ by implant brand (Osstem, Dentis, MegaGen)?
Because the cost of the fixture and the warranty period differ (MegaGen KRW 790,000, 3 years; Dentis KRW 890,000, 3 years; Osstem BA KRW 990,000, 5 years). All three companies are Korean, so parts supply and repairs are quick, and which one to use is decided at your consultation based on the site and your bone condition.
Q. Which costs are added as non-covered for an NHI implant at age 65+?
Bone grafting, sinus lift, and bridge pontics are charged separately as non-covered items. We explain which items you need and their cost after the exam.
Q. What is the implant warranty period?
The fixture is under warranty for 3 years for MegaGen and Dentis and 5 years for Osstem BA, and the crown on top, as well as regular crowns and inlays, for 2 years. The warranty applies to patients who keep up their 6-month check-ups.
Q. Do I really need a crown after root canal treatment?
A tooth that has had root canal treatment fractures easily, so it is usually covered with a crown for protection. If little tooth remains, we rebuild the shape with a core, and if the remaining tooth structure is too limited to retain a core, we use a fiber post as well. When the long-term outlook is uncertain, we sometimes restore the tooth with a resin core and no crown, and monitor how it does.
Q. Can I pay in credit card installments?
Card installments follow your card company's terms. The amounts in the tables are standard fees, and we give you the actual treatment cost as an itemized estimate after diagnosis.

We publish our standard fees first

We explain the estimate item by item and give it in writing if you ask. We leave out items you don't need.
