Here’s What Impacts the Cost of Dental Implants

Dental implants are a long-term investment in your health, confidence, and quality of life. At Monterey Peninsula Dental Implant Center, we make sure you fully understand what you're investing in — with no surprises and no guesswork.

Why the Cost of Dental Implants Can Vary

Every Smile Is Unique — And So Is Every Treatment Plan

There is no one-size-fits-all price for dental implants. Several factors influence the total cost of treatment, including:

  • The number of teeth needing replacement
  • The type of restoration (single implant, bridge, or full arch)
  • The brand and quality of the implants used
  • Whether preliminary procedures are required (extractions, bone grafts, sinus lifts, etc.)
  • The restoration materials (zirconia, porcelain, titanium, etc.)

  • The experience and credentials of your implant surgeon
  • Use of guided surgery and advanced technology
  • The level of anesthesia or sedation needed
  • In-house vs. outsourced lab fabrication

Because every case is unique, your personalized consultation includes a full evaluation and transparent cost estimate.

Complete Dental Implant Pricing: What’s Included

A full dental implant isn’t just a post — it’s a complete, functional tooth system. A typical case includes:

  • Implant Post: $1,500 – $2,500
  • Abutment: $500 – $1,000
  • Crown or Restoration: $1,000 – $2,000

Estimated Total per Tooth: $2,500 – $5,000

Full Arch Implants: Pricing varies more widely depending on design and materials.

Not All Full Arch Restorations Are the Same

What to Consider Beyond the Price Tag

When comparing quotes for full arch dental implants, it’s important to understand what’s included — and what’s not.

Be sure to ask about:

  • The quality and brand of implants being used
  • The materials used for the final restoration (e.g., monolithic zirconia vs. acrylic)
  • Whether your restoration is custom-designed in-house or sent to an external lab
  • Warranty coverage for implants and restorations
  • What kind of maintenance is required and included

We only work with world-class implant systems (Straumann and Ditron) and create every crown or prosthesis in our own digital lab using high-end materials — giving you long-lasting results you can trust.

Experience You Can Feel Confident In

Dr. Paraon N. DeQuiroz, DDS

With over 25 years of focused implant experience and top-tier credentials from the International Congress and Academy of Oral Implantologists, Dr. DeQuiroz has placed and restored thousands of implants with precision, safety, and compassion.

A Smart, Long-Term Investment

Function. Aesthetics. Confidence.

Unlike bridges or dentures, dental implants prevent jawbone loss, support facial structure, and restore over 90% of natural chewing power. With proper care, they can last a lifetime — saving you money on replacements and repairs down the road.

Making Dental Implants Affordable

Affordable care without compromising quality.

We believe that a healthy, confident smile should be within reach. That’s why we offer flexible payment and financing options to make dental implant treatment affordable for our patients.

We offer:

  • Low-interest financing (for qualified patients)
  • Long-term payment plans
  • Soft credit check options (including Proceed Finance and CareCredit)
  • Acceptance of most major credit cards

To help reduce costs even further:

Because we place a high volume of dental implants, we purchase implants in bulk — and we pass those savings on to you.

In addition, having our own state-of-the-art in-house dental laboratory allows us to create your custom restorations on site, eliminating third-party lab fees and saving you hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars on your treatment.
