The cost of dental implants varies based on several factors. The number and type of implants play a key role: higher-quality materials tend to look more natural and last longer, while needing more implants increases complexity and cost. Some patients may require preliminary procedures like bone grafts, sinus lifts, or extractions, which can extend the treatment timeline and add to the cost. Anesthesia or sedation also impacts pricing; we offer both IV sedation and general anesthesia, delivered through advanced systems designed for comfort, safety, and a smooth recovery. Lastly, many patients choose to finance their treatment, with terms depending on credit and total cost. In some cases, medical insurance may help cover all or part of the expense.
Dental insurance may provide some coverage with dental implants. Maximums typically range from $1,000 to $2,500 of coverage. Generally, Medicare and Medicaid do not provide coverage for dental implants.
Medical insurance may also provide some reimbursement for dental implants, however that will depend on your insurer, specific health plan coverage, your qualifying medical condition(s) and the treatment available to you. In case of accidents, other insurance coverage, such as workers compensation or other general liability insurance, may be applicable as well.
We do! This is the most popular option for most of our patients. Once we determine the amount that needs to be financed, we work with multiple third party lenders to secure the most affordable payment plan for you. You can find more information by consulting our Dental Implants Cost Guide. In the event that your insurance provides some coverage, most patients will secure third party financing for their initial investment, and any additional medical reimbursements will be an additional savings if approved by the insurance provider.
The process of finding out your financing options is simple:
The entire process is streamlined to get you the financing you need quickly, allowing you to focus on your dental care rather than payment concerns.
Although we recommend scheduling a consultation to meet with one of our professionals, a few factors we consider for eligibility are:
Regarding the procedure itself, we specialize in same-day dental implant treatment. In many cases, our doctors can replace your entire mouth in under 24 hours!
You will be completely asleep and comfortable under general anesthesia for the procedure. It is common to experience discomfort during the first week after surgery, but many patients find that over-the-counter pain relief is adequate.
Depending on the number of full arches (sets of teeth) you’re having done, it could take anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours.
Typically our patients report feeling back to normal around the one week mark. Prior to that it’s typically just some mouth soreness.
Although uncommon, some complications of implants could be an implant failure, a sinus infection, or a nerve injury. Our success rate is 99% vs. the national average of a 94%-95% success rate.
