The total price of a suitable single implant bundle at our clinic, including consultation, implant surgery and crown, is $3,995.
The cost is paid across the course of treatment over approximately four months. For a step-by-step walkthrough of what happens at each stage of your care, review our detailed dental implant treatment plan.
*A $200 records fee applies if you wish to take consultation records with you. Most radiology clinics charge around $150 for a cone beam after Medicare.
Crown pricing shown is for a standard full-contour zirconia crown. Additional highly aesthetic crown options may be available at extra cost. Implants placed in the highly visible Esthetic Zone (front teeth) often require specialized components and advanced surgical techniques, with total costs typically ranging between $6,000 and $6,500.
We believe quality dental care should be affordable and transparent. Here's a rough guide of where your investment in a healthier smile will go.
Comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment planning.
Procedures and materials to restore and enhance your oral health.
High-quality lab work and premium materials for lasting results.
Ongoing care, follow-ups, and support for your continued wellness.
At Brisbane Dental Implants, a suitable site-ready single implant bundle starts from $3,995 before any applicable health fund rebate. This starting point is not a quote for every patient because additional treatment may be required.
For suitable cases, this may include the implant placement and final crown pathway. Your written plan should state the included item numbers, components, review visits and whether a standard or custom abutment is planned.
Grafting, sinus lift, socket preservation, extractions, temporary teeth or periodontal therapy can add fees. These are common reasons two patients replacing one tooth may receive different estimates.
All-on-4, All-on-6 and full mouth plans involve multiple implants, temporary prostheses, final bridges and maintenance. These are quoted after 3D planning and restorative design.
The final fee is shaped by diagnosis, anatomy, materials, risk, surgical complexity and the type of tooth replacement you choose.
A clear written estimate helps you compare like with like and avoid surprises between the surgical and restorative stages.
These examples are general categories only. Your treating dentist must assess your mouth before giving advice or a quote.
A site-ready single implant crown may fit the starting bundle if there is enough bone, no active infection and no need for grafting or complex temporary work.
Costs may include extraction, temporary tooth design, socket preservation, gum shaping and a custom aesthetic crown to manage the visible smile zone.
The plan may need sinus lift assessment, grafting or delayed placement. Imaging is important because the sinus can limit available bone height.
An implant bridge may be more appropriate than replacing each tooth separately. The number of implants depends on the span, bite and bone quality.
Full arch or All-on-4 Brisbane treatment requires a different quote structure because extractions, temporary teeth and final prosthesis design are involved.
Implant treatment is usually paid in stages because treatment itself is staged. Consultation, imaging, extraction, grafting, implant placement, impressions or scans and the final crown or bridge may occur at different visits. This structure can make the cost easier to plan.
Some patients use health fund extras, staged payments, third-party finance or early release of superannuation pathways where eligible. These options should be considered carefully because borrowing and superannuation decisions have broader financial implications. The clinic can provide itemised estimates, but your fund or finance provider decides eligibility and rebates.
Low headline fees can be hard to compare unless you know whether the price includes both surgery and the final tooth. Ask what happens if grafting is needed, if the implant does not integrate, or if a different abutment or crown design becomes necessary.

The lowest fee is not always the lowest risk plan. The most appropriate option depends on diagnosis, maintenance and your priorities.
At Brisbane Dental Implants, implant pricing is linked to a clinician-led assessment rather than a generic online fee. Dr Virginia Han, Dr Sae Mi Bok and the clinical team use examination findings and CBCT imaging to explain suitable options, limitations and staged fees.
Return to dental implants hubImplant treatment is a health service, so value is not measured only by the lowest advertised number. A careful quote should reduce uncertainty and make the clinical pathway understandable.
A useful cost discussion depends on a clear clinical scope.
Bring any existing dental implant quotes, x-rays, health fund information and a list of questions about inclusions. If another clinic has provided a low headline fee, ask whether it includes the final crown or bridge, abutment, temporary tooth, surgical guide, grafting, review visits and management of complications.
It can help to decide what kind of comparison you want. Some patients are comparing a single implant with a bridge. Others are comparing All-on-4 with implant-retained dentures, or deciding whether to stage treatment over time. The most useful quote is the one attached to a treatment option that has been explained properly.
Ask for the fee to be broken into stages and for each stage to be linked to a clinical step. This makes it easier to understand what is due at consultation, extraction, grafting, implant placement, temporary restoration, final restoration and maintenance. It also helps you ask your health fund about item numbers before treatment begins.
Prices vary because treatment may include extraction, grafting, temporary teeth, different implant components, custom crowns, full arch prosthetics, sedation and maintenance. Anatomy and health risk also affect planning.
It depends on the quote. Some fees only describe surgical placement, while others include the final crown. Always ask for an itemised written estimate. The itemised item-code catalogue further down this page lists the individual ADA dental item numbers and typical fees for our single implant bundle.
Some extras policies contribute to selected item numbers, but rebates vary. Give your fund the itemised plan before treatment so you can estimate out-of-pocket costs.
Often yes, because implant treatment naturally has stages. However, delaying some steps can affect temporary teeth, bite stability or bone changes, so timing should be planned clinically.
Full arch treatment is substantially different because it may involve removing teeth, placing multiple implants, fitting temporary teeth and making a final prosthesis. See the full mouth implants guide.
At Brisbane Dental Implants, a single implant bundle for suitable site-ready cases starts from $3,995. This covers the entire process from consultation to the final crown.
The main considerations are the initial cost and the time required for healing (usually 3–6 months). However, they are often considered the most stable and long-lasting tooth replacement option.
With proper care, the titanium implant screw can last a lifetime. The prosthetic crown or bridge typically lasts 10-15 years before it may need replacement due to normal wear and tear.
Yes, our initial assessment is free of charge and includes a 3D CBCT scan (valued at $300 RRP). This allows us to provide you with an accurate, fixed-price quote.
Yes, we use several systems. MIS is our high-quality standard brand, while Astra Tech and Straumann are premium systems preferred for specific clinical situations.
The bundle includes the initial consultation, 3D CBCT scan, surgical placement of the implant, all healing reviews, and the final zirconia or ceramic crown.
Yes, we offer flexible payment options to help spread the cost. Since treatment takes place over several months, the costs are naturally split across your appointments. You can learn more about interest-free and early super release options on our dental implant payment plans page.
Yes, many patients access their superannuation early for essential dental treatment. We can provide the necessary documentation and guide you through the process.
Good candidates have healthy gums and sufficient jawbone to support the implant. We assess your medical history and bone volume during your free consultation.
If bone volume is low, we can often perform a bone graft or sinus lift to create a stable foundation for the implant. This is all planned and performed in-house.
The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, so you shouldn't feel pain during surgery. Most patients report only minor discomfort during the first few days of healing.
A standard case involves about 7-9 short visits over 4-6 months, including consultation, surgery, healing reviews, and final crown appointments.
Premium brands like Astra Tech have decades of clinical research and may offer better long-term bone maintenance in specific scenarios.
