Cost of Dental Implants

Dental implant costs vary over a wide range, depending on the individual case. We'll try to give you some helpful figures here, to help you budget for this expense. The costs mentioned below include the fee for the actual implant fixture, plus the crown, bridge, or denture attached to it.

Hopefully you understand the world well enough to know that you need to be careful about price shopping for this service. If you look for the cheapest implants, but the placement technique is sloppy and so they only last four years instead of twenty, have you really saved any money? The surgery to place implants is demanding, and if done properly, requires a lot of training, precision, and care, and can't be rushed.

At Dr. Chal's office, the cost of a single dental implant will vary from about $1500 to $5000, depending on the situation. This is the complete cost, which includes the surgery plus the crown. If bone grafts are required, there could be extra costs for that. If one tooth is missing, only one fixture will be required.

If many teeth are missing, there could be considerable variation in the number of fixtures needed, depending on the situation. The dental implant surgery will cost about $500 to $2000 for each fixture placed, and then crowns or bridges will be placed on top of those. The price of placing a full set of teeth on these implants could vary from $2000 to $10,000, again depending on the materials used and the difficulty and complexity of the case.

Don't expect much help for implants from dental insurance. Most insurance plans provide for benefits based on the least expensive option for your case. Often the least expensive option is not very desirable, so be prepared for a stingy response from your insurance company.
