What does a full dental implant cost at Lucid?
A complete single implant has three parts: the fixture (the titanium post), a custom abutment, and a zirconia crown. Added together, that is about ₩1,190,000 with a MegaGen AnyOne fixture, up to ₩1,490,000 with an Osstem SOI fixture.
- Choose a fixture: ₩590,000, ₩690,000, or ₩890,000.
- Add the custom abutment: ₩100,000.
- Add the zirconia crown: ₩500,000.
- Add grafting only if your CT scan shows it is needed: bone graft ₩300,000–450,000; sinus lift ₩500,000 (crestal) or ₩1,000,000 (window).
Your dentist recommends the fixture and whether grafting is needed after a CT scan. See our dental implants in Seoul page for how treatment works.

How much do braces and aligners cost in Seoul?
Lucid lists four orthodontic options at different levels. Anterior alignment, which straightens front teeth only, is ₩1,290,000 per arch. Clippy-C, a self-ligating ceramic bracket system, is listed at ₩3,490,000. Lingual braces, which sit behind the teeth, are listed at ₩5,280,000, and Invisalign at ₩10,000,000. Retainers are ₩300,000.
Orthodontic treatment usually takes many months and needs regular check-ins, so it suits expats and long-stay visitors more than short trips. Your orthodontic plan, number of visits, and payment schedule are confirmed at consultation.
What do smaller treatments cost?
Many visitors add a small treatment to their trip. Gum contouring starts at ₩100,000, an inlay is ₩300,000, and tooth-colored resin fillings range from ₩60,000 to ₩150,000 depending on size. A custom night guard, which protects teeth and veneers from grinding, is ₩600,000.
Are these prices covered by Korean health insurance?
No. This list shows non-covered fees. Korea's National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) covers foreign residents who are enrolled, generally after six months of residence or through an employer. Covered dental items typically include annual scaling for adults 19 and over, basic fillings, extractions, root canal treatment, and gum treatment.
Veneers, whitening, Invisalign, and most orthodontics are typically not covered. If you live in Korea, see our guide to NHIS dental coverage for foreigners and confirm your own eligibility.
Is there a VAT refund on dental work for tourists?
Not for cosmetic procedures. Korea's VAT refund for foreign patients having cosmetic procedures ended on December 31, 2025. Cosmetic dental work such as veneers and whitening is VAT-taxable in Korea, so budget without a refund. Details are on our Korea tax refund 2026 page.
How do I pay, and what is not included?
Ask for an itemized written estimate before treatment starts. It should list each tooth, material, and fee. Flights, hotels, and any medications from a pharmacy are separate. For payment methods and receipts for insurance claims, see paying for dental treatment in Korea.
- Fees are per tooth or unit unless stated.
- Fees are reference prices; there are no discount or event prices.
- Final fees are confirmed after an exam and X-rays or a CT scan.
