Dental Implant Cost Explained: Reduce Your Out-of-Pocket Expenses [Video Guide]

Dental implants are a powerful investment in your smile, replacing missing teeth with a solution that looks beautiful when you grin and feels natural when you chew. If you’re interested in restoring your smile, you want to know: how much does a dental implant cost?

At Keider DDS, we have great news for you. Dental implants are more affordable than they used to be, thanks to advances in implant technology. In fact, by simplifying so much of the implant placement process, mini dental implants cost half as much as conventional dental implants. Plus, our office will help you handle the remaining costs with our dental financing options!

How Much Does a Dental Implant Cost?

The cost of dental implants has become more affordable in recent years, thanks to major improvements in dental implant technology and treatment techniques. One development that has significantly changed the process over the past decade is the use of mini dental implants. By simplifying both the implant design and placement procedure, mini implants help reduce costs in several key ways.

Improved Design

These implants are much smaller than their conventional counterparts, measuring about half the diameter of traditional implants.

They also feature a simpler design. A mini implant is made from a single piece, while a traditional implant consists of two separate components.

Because mini implants require less material and use a simpler design, they are less expensive to manufacture.

Minimally Invasive Placement

Placing the implant is far less invasive than the conventional process. To place traditional implants, Dr. Keider makes a large incision into the gums, lifts the flap, and screws the implant into the jawbone. Then, in a separate visit, he adds the top component.

On the other hand, to place mini implants, Dr. Keider makes a small hole and inserts the implant into the jawbone. The process is so gentle that Dr. Keider can place a temporary replacement on the same day, restoring functionality to your smile. By using a simpler procedure that restores your smile sooner, the mini implant procedure is more cost-effective than conventional implants.

Fewer Procedures

Another advantage of mini implants is that they often reduce the need for bone grafting.

Because conventional implants are larger, patients may be told they need bone grafting to rebuild lost jaw volume before Dr. Keider can place a traditional implant.

This is just another opportunity for mini implants to save you and your wallet from unnecessary discomfort. Because they’re so small, they fit into smaller jawbones. As a result, patients who might need bone grafting for conventional implants could choose the mini-implant route instead.

Between its simpler design and procedure that shaves off so many steps, the mini dental implant process costs about half as much as the conventional process while still having a high success rate. And with financing options, it is even easier to afford dental implants.
