* Overview: Dental Implant Cost / Prices *
Dollar for dollar, a dental implant is frequently the most cost effective, long-term treatment option (compared to conventional bridges, dentures and certain root canal therapies) to replace one or several missing teeth. In order to fully understand the cost that is associated with the dental implant procedure, one must fully understand that there are typically 4 stages in the dental implant process that incorporate distinct procedures with associated prices to perform treatment.
The Consultation: Dental Implant Cost / Prices
- Diagnostic X-Rays
- Diagnostic 3D CT Scan
- Diagnostic Pressure Mapping
- Diagnostic Clinical Evaluation
- Diagnostic Models
Upon the completion of a thorough diagnostic consultation, the dental implant procedure can be performed as early as the same visit or the procedure may require several weeks to plan and fabricate the replacement teeth for immediate load / immediate function cases. The overall fee for this first visit ranges from $0 to $500 depending on the clinical and diagnostic needs of the particular patient.
The Surgery: Dental Implant Cost / Prices
- Tooth Extraction ($175 to $275ea)
- Dental Implant Placement ($1,750 to $2,500ea)
- Mini Dental Implant Placement ($1,150 to $1,950ea)
After the dental implant is placed, patients will require 4 weeks to 4 months prior to "The Prep" appointment at which point the dental implant is typically uncovered so that an impression can be taken which will be used the make a custom abutment, which essentially connects the titanium or zirconium implant to the restoration. The overall fee for the surgery can range from $2,000 to $3,500 per dental implant depending on the clinical needs of the particular patient.
Ancillary Procedures

The Prep: Dental Implant Cost / Prices
- Custom Abutment
During "The Prep" visit (4 weeks to 4 months after the implant surgery) the dental implant may be uncovered which marks the start of the implant restoration process. The overall fee for this procedure ranges from $400 to $600 per dental implant. Depending on the case-type and clinical needs of the patient, certain dental implant types can bypass this stage of the process.
The Final Restoration: Dental Implant Cost / Prices
- Implant Crown
- Implant Denture
- Implant Bridge

Due to the large volume of dental implant restoration options, it is difficult to accurately disclose all costs associated with all implant restorations. With that being said, the associated cost to complete the dental implant process with a crown, implant denture, implant bridge or All-On-4 varies in price from $1,250 to $1,500 per dental implant (or) $5,000 to $25,000 for full arch reconstructions.
