Paying for Implant Treatment

Are implants covered by my dental benefits provider?

Some dental benefits carriers pay for implants, some pay a portion of the costs but the majority do not cover the cost of implants. Our staff will work hard to see that you get the best possible benefit from your insurance.

Ultimately you are responsible for the cost of the implant procedure. We have several payment options to assist you to meet your financial obligations. Christine, our Accounts Manager, will discuss all payment options with you.

You will enjoy the benefits of functional, comfortable and attractive implant-based replacement teeth!
