The cost of dental implants prevents many people from selecting them as a treatment option to replace missing or decayed teeth.
Dentures are more affordable, even though dental implants may be more comfortable.
But how much do dental implants cost without dental insurance vs. with a 1Dental dental savings plan? You’ll be surprised at how much you can save.
All our representatives are U.S.based
The cost of multiple and single dental implants depends on a few factors:
1. Location of the dental implant in the mouth (anterior, posterior)
2. Where you live (prices vary by state)
3. How many implants are needed (do you need a single implant or multiple dental implants?)
4. Type of implant you choose or your dentist recommends.
Below is a price breakdown for anything you might need for a dental implant procedure (single tooth extractions, dental implants, bridges and crowns) without dental insurance vs. using 1Dental’s Careington Care 500 plan.

Since many implants require a specialist called a prosthodontist, the Dental Access plan (powered by the Aetna Dental Access network) can often provide higher savings. Savings vary by dentist, but range from 15-50% whether you see a General dentist or specialist. This quickly adds up to thousands of dollars in savings and is a simple addition to the Care 500 plan.
There are many moving parts involved with dental implants, and it typically takes about five months to complete the implant in the lower jaw and six months to complete one in the upper jaw. Below you can see what’s needed for the dental implant and a brief overview of how the process works.
Before any work can be done, you’ll need to visit a prosthodontist or a general dentist with training in placement and restoration of dental implants. A comprehensive examination will need to be conducted first. This examination will help your dentist determine what needs to be done during surgery.
If there are any decaying teeth that need to be removed, this step will come first. Your general dentist should be able to perform this task.
Once there is enough bone to hold the implant (bone grafting may be needed), the first procedure will be scheduled so your dentist or prosthodontist can place the implant in your jaw.
Three parts make up the tooth implant:
After the implants are fused with the bone, the second surgery will be scheduled. During this second surgery, your surgeon or dentist will check the implant and then place a healing collar on the top of the implant. Once the tissue heals around this collar, the collar is removed and the abutment and a temporary crown is screwed into the implant.
When the temporary crown has been in place for four to six weeks, your dentist will have you come in to get the permanent crown put on – which has been at the lab being made.
While implants provide a good long-term solution, they can be very involved and costly. The Care 500 plan offers 20% off at specialists immediately, but the Dental Access plan gives 15-50% savings per visit, including implants and additional procedures.

I am a Preferred Plan member which includes access to providers in both Care 500 and Dental Access networks. After doing the math, we dropped our employer-sponsored dental insurance and got this plan instead. The Care 500 plan has been great to use for our six-month cleanings and checkups at Ideal Dental. My last one was only $44! My youngest daughter recently needed to get her wisdom teeth out - and it was VERY handy to be able to leverage the Dental Access network for that - which got the cost another $400 lower than the already discounted Care 500 rate. Its awesome being able to compare doing work with either option and then go with the lower cost. Everything is so much less expensive than it was with traditional dental insurance (especially with those high premiums). I'll never go back.

I needed to have a tooth pulled and a bridge made and if it hadn't been for this program, I would not have enjoyed the savings of $1,900.00 for that procedure.
- Jeanne M - IA
Wow, I was pleasantly very happy. I am getting a flapper for my front tooth and this discount Ins. saved me $550.00. I would highly recommend this company to anyone. I wish I had known about this a long time ago. I have been putting off going to the dentist cause I could not afford it. Thank you 1Dental.

I saved over $4000.00 for all my procedures.This was better than any insurance I found.Thank you so much.
- Paul A - NC
I bought the Careington 500 Plan in May this year. With frequent cleanings of 2-3 times a year to keep my perio issues under control, I knew the plan discounts would help me out. Had no problems since my dentist is in the plan and financially the plan helps quite a bit!
- Brenda H. - TH
I had to have major dental work. Twenty extractions and full denture with a partial on the bottom. My dental plan saved me 50 percent off my total bill. Best investment I've ever made. No waiting period at all. Would recommend to anyone who likes to save THOUSANDS at the dentist!

- H - PA
I was quoted $600 for a tooth extraction. After joining 1dental I had the tooth extracted the next day for $183.00, which included a couple of x-rays. It's better than any other "plan" I've had.
- P.A. - NY
A root canal that cost $1250 was reduced to $850 with my 1Dental plan. The cost of the plan for the year was covered with this first savings of $400. Can't beat that!!!

I've had a dental plan from 1Dental for many years now. Over the years the plan has saved me thousands of dollars in dental expenses. I don't mind going to the dentist for regular check ups now since the price is about half with my discount plan. Going to the dentist on a regular basis has also helped prevent bigger dental issues down the road for me and my family.Tyler, TX
Love the savings! Dentist office quoted me a routine cleaning with X-rays for $242, paid $79 with Careington! Customer service is excellent, as well.Connie N, OK
It's well worth the price; the plan pays for itself in two or three routine dental visits.Paul B. , MN
Simple to use. No insurance company to deal with for claims. Our dentist uses this plan, gives us the discount and then we are on our way!Edwardo, AZ
The discounted rates are great especially since I have gum issues and this plan does not limit me to only 2 cleanings a year!! My bill always shows the regular costs and I'm always glad to see my charges are much less! Diana W, IL
