How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?

A FLEXIBLE APPROACH TO YOUR DENTAL IMPLANTS COST

We would love to be able to give you an exact number for what your dental implants will cost in our Brentwood Los Angeles office. Unfortunately, because all patients are different, it’s important that an examination be completed before establishing your treatment plan and the costs of dental implants so you know the number of implants and the types of dental implants you will need.

That’s the “bad news”. Here’s the good news…

We will work with you when more extensive treatment is needed to craft a payment plan that works for you. We believe that dental care should be within everyone’s reach and will work to accommodate your personal financial situation to the best of our ability.

GETTING STARTED With Dental Implants

The first step to finding out the cost of your dental implant surgery is setting up an initial consultation. An approximate fee can usually be determined during this initial visit and we can discuss the easy financing options, what your dental insurance may cover and how you can fit the cost of dental implants into your budget and lifestyle.

Call us at (310) 826-8242 to schedule your initial consultation.

types of dental implants procedures we offer

single tooth dental implant

SINGLE IMPLANTS

A Single Dental Implants is a titanium or zirconia post that is surgically placed into the jaw to replace a single tooth root. This post naturally fuses to the bone, to function just as a tooth root. The post supports an artificial tooth implant crown that looks, feels and acts exactly like a natural tooth. 

multiple missing teeth dental implants

Multiple Implants

Multiple Dental Implants look and function precisely like natural teeth, without affecting the surrounding teeth. It’s always best to maintain a patient’s existing healthy teeth, which is why multiple implants are often a better solution for patients looking to replace several missing teeth.

all-on-4 tooth replacement dental implants

ALL-ON-4®

The All-On-4® dental procedures utilizes a minimum of four dental implants to support a full-arch fixed prosthesis and completely restore a patient’s smile in just one day. This tooth replacement procedure is ideal for patients who are missing all or the majority of their teeth. 

zygomatic implants dental solution

ZYGOMATIC IMPLANTS

Zygomatic Dental Implants utilize patients’ existing bone density by anchoring the extra long implants closest to the cheek bone, also known as the zygomatic bone. This dental implant surgery solution is a graftless treatment ideal for patients who experience severe forms of bone loss.

sinus lift

Sinus Augmentation (sinus lift) is performed when the sinus floor is too close to the area where dental implants are to be placed. This procedure is performed to increase the amount of bone in the upper jaw to ensure a secure foundation for the implants, while protecting the sinus.

bone graft after tooth extraction

Bone Graft

Bone grafting is the process of restoring lost bone tissue in the jaw. When left untreated, periodontal disease can progress to and damage the supporting bone. Because dental implants are placed into the jawbone, patients must posses enough bone to support the implant. A bone graft is performed when patients lack adequate bone density.

  •   Dr. Aalam is awesome. My dentist recommended him to perform my implant surgery which I needed after multiple root canals did not fix the issue I was having. Getting an appointment was easy and the whole process was as smooth as possible given such an uncomfortable situation. He performed my bone graft, gum graft and extraction without any issue and it healed very quickly. My temporary tooth had some issues staying in, but even when Dr. Aalam was out of the office, Dr. Krivitsky was able to see me in his place to fix it. Everything has healed perfectly and I would never know that anything was wrong in the first place. Very thankful for Dr. Aalam's calm demeanor and expertise for making me feel safe under his care.

      I have been under Dr. Aalam's dental care for about a year. I had 2 extractions and 2 implants place. It is now complete. Having had other implants with other doctors, I can only say how sorry I am that I didn't know Dr. Aalam prior to those. I had immense problems with the others. These are absolutely perfect..I felt zero pain during or after each procedure with him. My son also had some dental work done with Dr. Aalam. Both of our work was extremely successful. I also have dental cleanings done there..Best ever. In addition, the staff is wonderful. Dr. Aalam and his staff are incredibly kind and compassionate. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!!
    Complete gratitude.

      I can't say enough wonderful things about Dr. Krivitsky and the staff here. I had not one but two gum grafts (all my lower teeth and many uppers). I had two different surgeries since so many teeth had to be grafted so not something people normally want to do. However, the whole team made both processes a breeze. Linsey answered all my medical billing questions and others so I could feel prepared for surgery. The front desk staff was always helpful and Dr. Krivitsky is an expert. Her surgical work is amazing and my gums look beautiful! She also has a different process for gum grafting and I was really shocked by the lack of pain I felt during my whole recovery - I took Advil and the prescribed steroid with arnica but that's it and I would say it was nearly pain free for me on both occasions. I would recommend this team to anyone needing grafting done. I travelled to her from Vegas both times and for my check ups because I couldn't find the same expertise here and I would do it again (not that I want another graft though 🙂 ).

  •   I saw Dr Alaam for an implant placement. Actually, I also came to him for an extraction but he talked me out of it and encouraged a root canal instead and I am grateful that he did

    During my consult he spoke to me as if I were family. I appreciated that so much. I also ran into a problem with my plan of care and though there was a bit of a delay in correcting it, he did in the end correct the problem and everything was then beyond fine, so I appreciated that as well.

    His office staff is fantastic. They are well organized and very easy to communicate with, which is utterly priceless.

    I'm satisfied with my implant and Im confident that I received the best care. And also thank you to Dr Alaam for offering a free cleaning with a review. Times are tough, everything helps. Thank you!

      Dr Aalam performed a procedure on me recently which required me to be sedated. I was so nervous, but Dr Aalam and his warm and friendly staff instantly put me at ease. I was looked after from the minute I walked in until the procedure was done. Dr Aalam followed up with me the next day by phone to make sure I was comfortable and on the road to recovery. I would recommend the Center for Advanced Periodontal and Implant Therapy for anyone that has to undergo these kinds of treatments. You are in good hands!!

  •   I've been seeing Dr. Krivitsky for over three years and there isn't another periodontist in the Los Angeles area (or elsewhere) who I'd entrust with periodontal issues, tooth implants and related surgery. She is brilliant at what she does, talented and tremendously kind and compassionate. (Dr. Krivitsky texts you personally after procedures to check in and remains reachable, even after hours.) She doesn't rush through appointments; on the contrary, she gives you plenty of time and she listens carefully to her patients.

    The staff is, accordingly, outstanding across the board. Receptionists work hard to get you in as quickly as possible, and they work around your schedule. Appointments are always on time, and I've never had "sticker shock" or felt pressured with respect to procedures and their costs - the office is forthcoming about pricing and incredibly fair, especially compared to previous periodontists / endodontists I've seen. The whole operation runs like a well-oiled machine.

    Simply put, Dr. Krivitsky and Dr. Aalam have built a world-class practice. When you're in their (beautiful and comfortable) offices, it's typically for an emergency or something that isn't routine. However, they make these visits and procedures as pleasant and stress-free as they could possibly be. You feel like you're in the best hands, and there's not much more one can ask for than that.

      Dr. Aalam is the best! I got a crown lengthening done and he made me feel completely cared for, the procedure was relatively quick and I loved the results.

      My gum surgery at the Center, performed by Dr. Aalam and his very kind and professional team, was a great success by all measures. I managed recovery without any prescription pain medication. Recovery time was as expected (stitches came out at two weeks, in my case). The amount of root coverage, which was the goal of this procedure, was amazing and seems to have held just fine over the past four months. As a bonus, my sensitivity to cold has improved quite a bit. The surgical team was very caring, and the Center's support staff is attentive and easy to reach during business hours. Dr. Aalam was responsive and encouraging after-hours during recovery. This is a very well-run operation that takes good care of their patients.

Dental Implant FAQs

Q: What are dental implants?

A: Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, either made of titanium or the holistic alternative, Zirconia, that are placed in the jaw bone and support permanent restorations to replace missing or extracted teeth. Once the implant is placed, it takes 3-6 months for the implant to fuse to the jawbone, also known as the osseointegration process, and the surrounding gum tissue to heal before a permanent artificial tooth can be fastened to the implant.

Q: Will my teeth implants match my existing natural teeth?
A: Yes! Your teeth feature a custom-designed porcelain crown that perfectly matches the shade of your existing teeth.  Patients often have difficulty distinguishing their natural teeth from their beautiful new teeth implants.
Q: Are there any age limitations?
A: Any person over the age of 18 can have dental implants as long as there is enough bone available in which to place the implant. Younger than 18? Get in touch with our Brentwood, Los Angeles office for an expert opinion on what your best options are!
Q: How often will I need to have checkups?
A: The success of your implants will depend greatly on how well you maintain them. They need to be professionally cleaned and examined once every three to six months. Also, brushing and flossing daily is absolutely necessary for long-term maintenance of your teeth, as well as maintaining overall systemic health. We offer periodic educational seminars on how to maintain healthy gums and increase total oral health.
Q: Is the dental implant procedure painful?
A: No, it is not. We are dental implant experts. We pride ourselves on pain-free and gentle treatment. An effective local anesthetic is used during the procedure so that you do not have any discomfort during the placement of the dental implants. We also use an IV sedation method that is designed to help the patient relax and feel at ease. This sedation works quickly and completely relaxes the patient and eliminates any stress or anxieties.  Although this method does not induce sleep, the patient will feel relaxed and the periodontist will be able to accomplish a higher level of dentistry in a shorter amount of time. The mild discomfort you might experience after dental implant surgery can be controlled with medications.
Q: When can I return to work after tooth implant surgery?
A: You can return to work after a dental implant procedure in Beverly Hills the following day unless a particular surgical circumstance arises. Dr. Aalam or Dr. Krivitsky will discuss all post-operative care instructions with you.

Q: What if I want “metal-free” implants?

A: For patients who prefer non-metal implants, we offer holistic alternatives made of Zirconia, a type of ceramic. Zirconia implants possess a unique one-piece design, meaning the artificial tooth root and the abutment (the piece the replacement tooth is fastened to) are connected, in contrast to titanium implants which are two pieces. The biocompatible material offers the same strength as titanium dental implants, and Zirconia implants are also white in color, which may be a more aesthetically pleasing option for some patients, as the metal isn’t visible.

Q: What is All-on-4?

A: All-on-4® is a revolutionary procedure that restores a patient’s smile by replacing all missing teeth, either on the top, bottom, or both, utilizing a minimum of four implants, in one day. Patient’s leave with a complete set of teeth and a beautiful smile on the same day.  This procedure is particularly beneficial for patients who experience bone loss, as it is a graftless solution that utilizes existing bone density and tilted implants to support the permanent restorations. Did you know Dr. Aalam was trained in Portugal by Dr. Paolo Malo, the founder of the All-On-4 technique? Dr. Aalam and Dr. Krivitsky are dental implant experts who provide life-changing results for their patients.

Q: How much do implants cost and does insurance cover the cost?

A: The cost of single tooth and multiple dental implants in Los Angeles varies depending on each patient’s specific case. Elements including the number of teeth missing, whether a patient experiences bone loss and chooses a graftless solution or requires a bone graft, the type of implant chosen, the number of implants and whether additional treatments such as gum grafts are needed can factor into the overall cost. The first step into understanding which dental implant surgery treatment plan is best for you and receiving a quote is to schedule a consultation with your periodontist in Los Angeles to receive a proper diagnosis.

Q: What are the advantages of dental implants?

A: Dental implants replace inconvenient or non-permanent dental solutions (such as dentures). No more messy nightly soaks, or dental replacements needed when you choose to have a dental implant procedure. Permanent implants are extremely durable, as they won’t slip like traditional dentures and can last a lifetime with the proper maintenance. These permanent teeth will look, feel and function like your regular teeth, improving your ability to chew and speak without any impediments. Most patients opt for dental implants to restore their smiles, self-esteem, and confidence, so they enjoy a healthy smile, worry free!
