While there are always outliers, typically the cost of our dental implant treatments fall somewhere between $5,000–$6,000 for the surgical placement of the implant and the crown. 

Will my dental insurance cover my dental implant? 

Most individual dental insurance policies exclude dental implants from coverage. Whether you have employer sponsored or individual dental insurance, your policy is likely to have a “missing tooth clause, meaning they will not pay to replace any tooth that was missing prior to them issuing your dental insurance policy.

If your dental insurance does end up covering a small percentage of your dental implant treatment, consider yourself lucky, you are one of the few. We find people who rely on their dental insurance to help cover a dental implant end up paying between $1,664 and $4,589 out of pocket. This is after their dental insurance.
