Implant Cost Factors
At Enlighten Dental, we understand the importance of personalizing treatments to the unique needs of our patients. There are a variety of factors that can affect the final cost of dental implants.
Preparatory Procedures
If you need a bone graft, gum treatment, or another preparatory treatment, your final bill will be a bit higher. However, properly preparing for implant placement can significantly reduce the chance of complications.
Number of Implants
In general, it costs less to replace a single missing tooth at Enlighten Dental than a full dental arch. The number of teeth you need to replace as well as the number of implants and abutments can affect your overall treatment cost.
Sedation
Dental sedation helps to ensure your treatments are as painless and stress-free as possible. The type of sedation you choose will impact how much your procedure costs.
Restoration Type
The size of restoration you need and the materials you select also play a role in the cost of treatment with dental implants. Our team can fully explain your options to you so you can make an informed decision about your restoration.

Implants Protect Your Jaw
Healthy natural teeth stimulate the jawbone, ensuring the area receives the nutrients needed to maintain a strong, dense bone structure.
When teeth are lost, these signals stop and the jawbone begins to shrink, or atrophy. By replacing the roots of a tooth as well as the crown, implant-supported restorations help prevent atrophy and ensure your jaw stays strong and healthy.
Titanium and Zirconia Implants We've Got an Implant to Meet Your Needs
Titanium implants have been used in dentistry for over 60 years with excellent results. However, about four percent of people tested are allergic or sensitive to titanium. At Enlighten Dental in Vancouver, we also offer zirconia implants, a metal-free, all-ceramic alternative to titanium implants. Our Zirkolith® zirconia implants are manufactured in Switzerland by Z-systems, the largest manufacturer of zirconia implants worldwide. Now teeth can be predictably replaced from root to crown with absolutely no metal.
Our Techniques & Technology
At Enlighten Dental, our doctors use selected technology and techniques to protect your overall health while treating tooth loss.
We can use platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) to accelerate healing, especially if you also require a tooth extraction. Our doctors also use ozone therapy to sterilize surgical sites and help prevent infection.
To ensure the greatest accuracy beginning with treatment planning, we use 3D computed tomography scans. This allows us to form an incredibly detailed image of your teeth, jaw, and supporting structures. We also use surgical guides for impeccable precision during implant placement. This decreases the risk of complications and minimizes recovery time.
Nervous About Implant Treatment? We Offer Sedation - Get in Touch to Learn More
Many patients report that implant surgery isn't especially painful. Local anesthesia is typically enough to ensure comfort throughout the procedure. However, if you have dental anxiety or especially sensitive teeth or gums, we can provide oral conscious sedation for extra peace of mind.
Sedation can induce a state of deep relaxation and help you feel like your treatment is flying by. To learn more about the types of sedation we offer or to inquire about adding it to your implant treatment plan, get in touch with us online or call our Vancouver office at:

Six Steps to Restoring Your Smile
Receiving dental implants is a process that can take several months, and although the process varies from patient to patient, here is what you can generally expect:
Because we can complete every phase of implants in-house, you will visit our Vancouver office for streamlined care held to the same high standard throughout your treatment.
Postoperative Symptoms Typically Last a Few Days
After implant surgery, it is normal to experience some minor bleeding, swelling, and discomfort. Your dentist will prescribe pain relievers. However, many patients manage their pain with over-the-counter medications.
To help minimize symptoms and prevent infection, you should:
- Apply ice packs
- Sleep with your head elevated
- Take all medication as instructed
- Avoid strenuous activity until cleared by your doctor
- Maintain a consistent oral health routine
- Attend follow-up appointments with our team
If you notice excessive bleeding or your symptoms worsen after the first few days, contact our office immediately.
