Implants are the most durable way to replace a missing tooth, and one of the most expensive dental treatments in New York. The total depends on how many teeth you're replacing, whether you need extractions or grafts first, and who places the implant. Use the calculator to price your treatment plan, then compare it with the tables below.

| Treatment | Brooklyn / Queens | Manhattan |
|---|---|---|
| Single implant (post + abutment + crown) | $3,800–$5,500 | $4,800–$6,500 |
| Implant post only (surgical placement) | $1,800–$2,500 | $2,200–$3,000 |
| 3-tooth bridge on 2 implants | $9,500–$13,000 | $12,000–$16,000 |

Add-on procedures and what they cost
| Procedure | Typical NYC price | When it's needed |
|---|---|---|
| Tooth extraction | $250–$450 | The failing tooth is still present |
| Bone graft (per site) | $600–$1,200 | Bone has shrunk after tooth loss or infection |

| 3D CBCT scan | $250–$450 | Planning almost every implant |

What drives implant prices
- The provider. Periodontists and oral surgeons place most implants in NYC. Some general dentists place and restore implants themselves and may charge 5–10% less.
- The crown material. Zirconia and layered porcelain crowns cost more than porcelain-fused-to-metal.
- Implant brand. Premium systems such as Straumann and Nobel Biocare cost more than value brands but have long track records and parts available worldwide.
- Bone quality. Grafting and sinus lifts can add thousands and several months of healing.
- Guided surgery. 3D-printed surgical guides improve precision and may add $300–$600.
Implant vs. bridge vs. denture
| Option (one missing tooth) | NYC cost | Typical lifespan |
|---|---|---|
| Dental implant | $3,800–$6,500 | 20+ years (crown 10–15) |
| 3-unit fixed bridge | $3,500–$6,000 | 10–15 years |
| Partial denture | $1,200–$2,800 | 5–10 years |
A bridge costs about the same upfront but requires grinding down the healthy teeth on each side. Over 20–30 years an implant is often the cheaper option.
Paying for implants
- Insurance: PPOs that cover implants usually pay 50% up to the annual maximum. Plan surgery late in one year and the crown early the next to use two maximums.
- HSA/FSA: implants are a qualified medical expense.
- Financing: CareCredit, Proceed Finance and in-office plans spread payments over 12–60 months.
- Dental schools: NYU and Columbia offer supervised implant treatment at lower fees.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a dental implant cost in Brooklyn?
A single implant with abutment and crown typically costs $3,800–$5,500 in Brooklyn in 2026. Add $250–$400 if the tooth needs to be extracted first and $600–$1,100 for a bone graft.
How much is a dental implant in Manhattan?
Manhattan periodontists and oral surgeons usually charge $4,800–$6,500 per implant including the crown, and premium practices can exceed $7,000.
What's included in the price of a dental implant?
A complete implant has three parts: the titanium or zirconia post placed in the bone, the abutment that connects to it, and the crown. Some offices quote only the post (often $1,800–$2,800), so always ask for the all-in price.
How much does All-on-4 cost in NYC?
All-on-4 or similar fixed full-arch implant dentures cost about $22,000–$35,000 per arch in NYC, or $45,000–$70,000 for both upper and lower. Zirconia final bridges cost more than acrylic hybrids.
Does insurance cover dental implants?
Many PPO plans now cover implants at 50%, but only up to the annual maximum (usually $1,000–$2,000), so insurance typically pays a small share. Scheduling surgery and the crown in different plan years can let you use two annual maximums.
Where can I get cheaper dental implants in NYC?
NYU College of Dentistry and Columbia's dental school offer implants at roughly 40–50% below private-practice prices, with longer treatment times. Some hospital dental clinics also offer reduced fees.
