How Much Do Dental Implants Cost in Fremont, San Francisco and the Bay Area?

Because, outside the one fixed, all-included All-on-4 fee per arch, an honest number doesn't exist until someone has seen your bone. The real drivers of cost — whether a tooth still needs extracting, how much bone the site holds, whether grafting is needed, how many implants your bite requires, and which material suits your case — all live on a 3D scan, not in a phone script. That's exactly why our consultation and CBCT scan are free: within one visit you get the real number, itemized in writing, instead of a teaser price that grows later.

Five things, roughly in order: how many teeth you're replacing; the number of implants your bone genuinely needs — on a full arch, four, six, or eight, and the fee rises with the count; whether extractions, bone grafting, or a sinus lift come first; your choice of sedation; and the restoration material — we work with monolithic zirconia, PMMA, titanium hybrids, and other major systems, matched to your bite forces and goals. All-on-4 is the exception: one fixed fee of $14,999 per arch, with the extractions and bone grafting the arch needs, IV sedation, and final teeth in acrylic (PMMA) or zirconia, your choice, all included. For everything else, because those drivers live in your anatomy, your number comes from your free 3D CBCT scan, itemized in writing at the consultation — not from a price chart. What does not drive cost here: outside lab markups or visiting-surgeon fees.

What is in the bill, not a promise about its size. We're family-owned, so there are no franchise fees or shareholder margins built into it. The surgery, the planning, and the CAD/CAM lab that designs and mills your teeth are under one roof, so no outside lab adds a markup and no visiting surgeon's travel is passed on to you. We don't claim to be the cheapest option — the only honest comparison is two itemized quotes side by side, so you're welcome to bring any written quote from another office and we'll read it with you line by line. Warranty terms depend on the materials in your plan and are written into it; here is how that works.

We work with all PPO dental plans — we'll help maximize your reimbursement and handle the claims paperwork for you. One honest expectation to set: most PPO plans treat implants as a major procedure and cap annual benefits at roughly $1,000–$2,000, so insurance usually helps with part of the bill rather than all of it — we'll verify your exact benefits and show you the numbers in writing before you decide anything. We currently can't accept Medicaid, Medi-Cal, Medicare, or HMO (DMO) plans for implant procedures. For the balance, we compare offers from four trusted lenders — Proceed Finance, Cherry, Happen Bank (formerly LendingClub), and CareCredit — to find the lowest rate and payment for your situation, whether your credit is excellent or still rebuilding. Prequalifying takes minutes and doesn't affect your credit score.

Three reasons, mostly. First, Bay Area dentistry carries the region's overhead — rent, staff, and lab costs here run above the national average, and most offices pass that through. Second, quotes often cover different things: a teaser price may include the implant post alone, with the abutment, crown, temporaries, and scans billed separately, while another office quotes the finished tooth. Third, structure: offices that send lab work out or fly in a surgeon pay markups that end up in your bill. When you compare quotes — ours included — ask for the itemized version and check what's actually in it. Ours arrives itemized by default, from an office where the surgery, sedation, and the lab that mills your teeth share one roof.

The parts are the same, but the job isn't. A front tooth is aesthetic surgery as much as implant surgery — the gumline, the crown shade, and the way light passes through the tooth all have to be right, because everyone will see it. A molar is less about looks and more about force: back teeth take the heaviest chewing loads, so implant size and bone quality matter more. Neither is automatically the expensive one — what moves your quote is extractions, grafting, and how much bone the site holds, which is why the number comes from your free 3D scan, itemized in writing, not from a price chart. Paying without insurance changes none of that: the same scan produces the same written number, with lender quotes added only if you want them.

Often the surgery is more straightforward on the lower jaw — its bone is usually denser, and there's no sinus sitting above it — while upper arches are the ones that sometimes need a sinus lift or grafting before implants can go in. What changes the number is what that arch needs, not which jaw it is: All-on-4 is the same fixed, all-included fee of $14,999 per arch on either jaw, and an arch that needs six or eight implants is quoted in writing, with any grafting or sinus lift it needs itemized. If you need both arches, we plan them together — one scan, one sedation plan, one coordinated timeline — and the itemized quote shows each arch separately so you can decide in stages if you prefer.

Some of our most complex cases are repairs of work that was done cheaply and quickly somewhere else: too few implants, outsourced parts, no one accountable when things loosened or fractured. A failed implant costs more to fix than doing it right ever would have — in money, bone, and time. Whatever you decide, get a plan from someone who will still be in the same building in ten years; since 2008, that's been us.

None. You'll leave with your 3D scan results, a clear diagnosis, an itemized treatment plan, and financing options if you want them — and the decision stays entirely yours, on your timeline. We'd rather prove our thinking before you spend a dime; that's the whole point of making the first visit free.

They are priced differently, which is why comparing them by the headline number misleads. A single tooth implant is quoted per tooth: implant, abutment and crown, plus any extraction or graft that tooth needs. Full mouth dental implants are priced per arch: here All-on-4 is one fixed fee of $14,999 per arch — four implants, the surgery, IV sedation, any extractions and bone grafting the arch needs, the fixed set of teeth and the final milled arch, all included — and an arch that needs six or eight implants is quoted in writing, with extractions, grafting, sinus work and sedation itemized when your case calls for them. That is also why the cost of full mouth dental implants varies more between offices than a single implant does — the implant count, the material of the final teeth and what is or isn't inside the number all move it. The ranges on this page are the honest starting point; the itemized quote after your free 3D scan is the real one. For the full-arch breakdown, see what All-on-4 really costs in the Bay Area and the All-on-4 and full mouth implant page.

Almost always, people who search for tooth transplant cost or dental transplant cost mean a dental implant: a titanium or zirconia root placed in the jaw and topped with a crown. A true tooth transplant — moving one of your own teeth, usually a wisdom tooth, into an empty socket — is a rare procedure with narrow conditions, and most adults do not qualify for it. So when you compare teeth implants price across offices, make sure every quote is describing the same three parts (implant, abutment, crown) and says which of them are included. That is the comparison the itemized quote here is written for.

No. The fee schedule is the same at both offices and does not change with the city you drive in from. What changes the number is your mouth, not your zip code: All-on-4 is the same fixed, all-included fee at both offices, and anything else follows the implant count, bone, material and any preparatory work. If you have been searching for dental implants cost near me and comparing offices around San Jose, Oakland, Hayward, Palo Alto or Daly City, the useful move is to bring their written quotes to your free consultation and read them against ours line by line; the second-opinion page explains how we do that.
