Let Us Calculate Your Implant Costs
/
At your consultation, your dentist will examine your smile and discuss your needs and budget. From there, we'll be able to design your personalized dental treatment plan and calculate the full cost of dental implants. It all starts with a visit to our dental practice.
Factors That Affect Dental Implant Cost
Number of Implants
The more implants you need, the higher the cost will be. An implant-supported bridge may need only two implants, while a traditional implant-supported denture will require six or more implants for support.
Location of Implants
Dental implants in your smile zone are more challenging to place than those in the back of your mouth. The extra care and precision they need can mean more expensive treatment.
Extractions
Patients with damaged teeth that cannot be saved may need extractions before implant surgery. This will increase the cost. The amount will depend on the number of teeth that require extraction.
Abutments
An abutment is used to connect the implant and the restoration. The abutment may have a separate cost that can impact the total cost of dental implant treatment.
Materials Used
Your dental implants, restoration, and abutments can all be made out of a variety of materials, from titanium to zirconia and more. Some materials will be more expensive than others.
Bone Grafting
Because tooth roots provide crucial stimulation that prevents bone atrophy, many patients with missing teeth may need a bone graft or a sinus lift to restore lost bone tissue before implant surgery.
Sedation
Though local anesthetic is sufficient for many patients, some patients may choose sedation to stay relaxed during oral surgery. All of our dentists have post-graduate education with the Dental Organization of Conscious Sedation.

View on GoogleAre Dental Implants Really Worth It?
In a word: yes! Dental implants offer the most comprehensive restorative dentistry solution for missing teeth. While traditional restoration options such as dentures and bridges replace the visible part of the tooth, implant-supported restorations replace the entire tooth structure.
Restorations supported by implants offer the look, feel, and function of normal healthy teeth—they're the treatment closest to having a full set of natural teeth again.
The Advantages of Dental Implants
Tired of dentures that slip out of place when you're talking with family or friends. Or that need to be repositioned while you're eating your favorite foods? Implant-supported dentures will never move out of place. They provide unparalleled stability for your restoration because implants integrate with your jawbone.
Traditional full dentures may need to be replaced once every decade, and traditional bridges and crowns can last anywhere from five to 15 years. Implant-supported restorations, on the other hand, can last from 15-20 years with good oral hygiene and care. The implants themselves can last for a lifetime.
Traditional bridges and dentures do nothing to prevent bone recession caused by missing teeth. Over time your jawbone will atrophy, giving your face a sunken, aged appearance and increasing the risk of further tooth loss. Implants prevent bone recession, helping keep your jawbone strong and your smile healthy.

Had a tooth that needed to be removed. They saw me fast and the only thing I felt was pressure. The tooth was gone in a matter of minutes, still can’t feel anything on that side of my mouth 2 hours later. Will be going back when I start on getting implants to replace the rest of my bad teeth.

I was extremely satisfied with my experience. I got a quick appointment, the entire staff was very pleasant and professional, the hygienist was terrific, and the dentist explained very well what treatment I needed. I got two appointments for that in a timely fashion as well.
