What will your dental implants cost?
Tap the missing teeth, pick your state and see a typical implant price range, what extractions, grafts and scans add, and what a dental plan may pay.
What the implant estimator works out: 12 jobs
- Dental implant cost calculator tap the missing teeth on the chart and see the price for exactly those teeth, not one national average.
- Cost by state US prices scaled to your state with the 2024 Synchrony state table.
- Extraction and bone graft cost add the extras a quote often leaves out: pulling the tooth, a bone graft or a sinus lift.
- Check your quote type the price a dentist quoted and see where it falls against the survey's specialist, overall and dearest-city medians for your state.
- Monthly payments drag the slider to spread the bill over 6 to 60 months and see the monthly amount.
- What a dental plan pays enter the plan's maximum, deductible and share, for one plan year on the estimator or split across two on the insurance page.
- Implants abroad, in your currency pick where you live (17 countries) and where you'd travel; the clinic price at the destination appears in your money, then the full total once flights and hotel are in, with days off and a repair reserve.
- State price map tap any state on the map, or the buttons for the small ones, to see its implant price.
- Implant, bridge or partial over 20 years one missing tooth: which option costs least over time, with failure rates from published studies.
- Full-mouth and All-on-4 over 20 years a whole jaw: fixed bridge against snap-in and plain dentures, per arch or both, with your own upkeep assumption.
- HSA, FSA and tax savings how much paying from a health account or deducting the bill can save, checked against the 2026 or 2027 limits.
- Veneers cost price porcelain or composite veneers for the number of teeth you want, from the 2023 survey, adjusted to your state.
Prices here are survey figures, not a quote. Only a dentist who has examined you and seen your scans can tell you what you need and what it will cost.
How each figure is worked out
Each tapped tooth is priced as one complete implant tooth: the post placed in the jaw, the connector on top of it (the abutment) and the crown you see. A telephone survey of 278 dental offices in six large metro areas, carried out in September 2025 and published in Dental Economics in February 2026, put the overall median for that complete tooth at $4,000 (Dental Economics, Feb. 2026). Next to it the estimator shows two other medians from the same survey: the one for specialists, which is the lowest subgroup it reports, and Minneapolis, the dearest of its six cities. Those three are named medians, not a statistical range, so a quote outside them is a reason to ask questions, not proof of anything. The survey, its city table and the specialist gap are set out on why quotes differ.
The survey covered only six large metro areas, so the figures are then scaled for your state. The scale comes from a second survey: the 2024 Synchrony Average Procedural Cost Study, which CareCredit publishes with an average single-implant price for every state and D.C. Its national single-implant figure is $2,143 (scope not stated; see what an implant quote includes), with state figures from $1,790 in Alabama to $3,565 in Hawaii (2024 Synchrony state table). Only the ratio is used: a state at $1,989, such as Ohio, gets 1,989 ÷ 2,143 = 0.928 times every national price.
What the extras cost on average
| Extra step | National average | When it comes up |
|---|---|---|
| Cone-beam CT scan | $466 | Once per treatment plan, to measure the bone |
| Simple extraction | $177 | A tooth that's still there and comes out in one piece |
| Surgical extraction | $363 | A broken or hard-to-reach tooth |
| Socket graft | $558 | Filling the hole left by an extraction |
| Allograft (donor bone) | $811 | Rebuilding a ridge that has shrunk |
| Xenograft (animal-derived) | $712 | Same job, different material |
| Synthetic graft | $749 | Same job, man-made material |
| Autograft (your own bone) | $2,779 | Bone taken from elsewhere in your body |
| Sinus lift | $2,022 | Upper back teeth where the bone under the sinus is thin |
All from the 2024 Synchrony study in CareCredit's procedure cost tables (linked on Sources), checked 30 Oct 2026. CareCredit sells medical financing, so it has an interest in how these prices are presented; we use the figures because the study is named, dated and covers every state.
A worked example
Someone in Ohio has a cracked lower molar that has to come out. The dentist expects a surgical extraction and a socket graft, then an implant once the site heals.
- Complete implant tooth: $4,000 × 0.928 = $3,713
- Surgical extraction: $363 × 0.928 = $337
- Socket graft: $558 × 0.928 = $518
- Cone-beam CT, once: $466 × 0.928 = $433
- Typical total: about $5,000. Swapping in the specialist median gives roughly $4,440 and the dearest-city median roughly $6,400.
With a plan that pays 50% of major work after a $50 deductible, up to a $1,500 yearly maximum, the plan's share stops at $1,500. Splitting the work over two plan years, extraction and graft late in one plan year and the implant months later, once the bone has healed and the next plan year has started, can bring a second maximum into play. The insurance planner does that arithmetic.
Not in the figure
- Sedation or IV anesthesia. No survey we could check gives a national figure, so you can add your own in Advanced mode.
- Temporary teeth worn while the implant heals, and night guards.
- Follow-up visits after the first few, and later repairs.
- A failed implant. Large reviews put survival of implants under single crowns at about 95% after 10 years (Clinical Oral Implants Research, 2012); the 20-year comparison builds that in.
When several teeth are missing
Once four or more teeth are missing on the same jaw, ask about options that don't need one implant per tooth: a bridge held by two implants, an overdenture that snaps onto two implants, or a fixed full-arch bridge on four to six implants. The estimator flags this as you tap. See full-arch implants and snap-in dentures.
Read this before trusting a number
The FDA lists damage to neighboring teeth, sinus perforation, nerve injury causing numbness, and infection among the risks of implant surgery, and notes that smoking and uncontrolled diabetes raise the risk of failure (FDA, Dental Implants: What You Should Know). Ask your dentist whether you're a candidate, what else could work for you, and for a written, itemized plan.
