Dental Implants Cost
What Affects the Cost of Dental Implants?
At Newport Family Dental Care, the average cost for a single dental implant ranges from $2,000 to $4,000, and a mini dental implant costs around $1,500; however, this is a highly individualized procedure, and your final cost for treatment will depend on your specific needs.
During your initial consultation, your dentist will assess your dental health and talk to you about how the following factors may affect the price of your dental implants.
Number of Missing Teeth
Your dentist will have to spend more time and use additional implants and materials to give you the care you need if you have more widespread tooth loss, which will add to the cost of your treatment. A single missing tooth requires one implant post and abutment, or connector piece, as well as a custom crown. Filling in for all the teeth along the upper or lower dental arch can require six to eight implant posts and abutments, along with a full denture.
Overall Oral Health
It's important to be in a state of good oral health before implant surgery. If you have dental decay or gum disease, we can address it with cleanings or periodontal therapy as part of your implant treatment plan. Additionally, if you have loose or damaged teeth that need to be extracted, we may be able to perform an extraction and implant placement during the same appointment. While adding these procedures to your treatment plan will increase the price of your dental implants, the health benefits will be well worth it.
Jawbone Density
Without stimulation from tooth roots, jaw tissue will degrade over time. Implant posts fill in for missing tooth roots to protect your jaw from deterioration, but they still require a certain amount of tissue to place. There are restorative dentistry treatments, such as bone grafts and sinus lifts, that can restore your jaw tissue. We can perform both of these important preparatory procedures at our Newport office, but they will add to the total cost of your implant treatment plan.
Do I Really Need To Replace Missing Teeth?
While treatment with implants may seem costly, think of them as a long-term investment in your dental health, function, and appearance.
Replacing missing teeth is important for the health of your jaw and your remaining natural teeth. Implants prevent teeth from shifting out of place and reduce the risk of additional tooth loss, which can require even more expensive dental work to address. They support lifelike, custom-made crowns, bridges, or dentures that are virtually indistinguishable from real teeth in terms of look and function. You'll be able to eat and smile with full confidence after treatment.

Drs Sutton are both very friendly and professional as well as all of their staff. They make sure throughout the process that you aren't experiencing any discomfort or pain, and will explain the procedures to you before you have them done. The Smile Savers Plan is well worth the money.
