How Implant Pricing Works
Dental implant treatment is often completed and priced in two phases:
Phase 1: Implant Placement
The dental implant is surgically placed into the jawbone and allowed to heal.
Phase 2: Final Restoration
After healing, the abutment and final crown or bridge are placed.
Additional procedures such as extractions, bone grafting, or sinus lifts may be recommended depending on your treatment plan.
What Can Affect the Cost?
Additional treatment may be recommended for some patients, including:
✓ Tooth extractions
✓ Bone grafting
✓ Sinus lifts
✓ Temporary restorations
✓ IV sedation or general anesthesia (when requested or clinically appropriate)

How Dental Implants Work
A Strong, Natural-Looking Solution for Missing Teeth
Dental implants are designed to replace a missing tooth from the root up. The implant is placed in the jawbone to support a custom-made dental restoration designed to look, feel, and function much like a natural tooth.
1. Implant Placement
Foundation
A titanium or zirconia implant is placed into the jawbone at the planned position of the missing tooth. The implant serves as the foundation for the final restoration.
2. Healing
Osseointegration
Over the next 4 to 6 months, the implant integrates with the surrounding jawbone through a process called osseointegration. This period creates a stable foundation for the restoration.
3. Abutment
Connection
Once healing is complete, an abutment is connected to the implant. This small component connects the implant to the final restoration.
4. Final Crown
Restoration
A custom crown is attached to the abutment and designed to complement your smile while restoring comfortable chewing and function.
For full-arch implant treatment, multiple implants can support a fixed dental prosthesis rather than individual crowns. Your treatment plan will depend on the number of missing teeth, bone support, and restorative needs.
Your Dental Implant Timeline
A Typical Two-Trip Dental Implant Process
For many international patients, dental implant treatment is completed over two trips to Cali, allowing the implant time to integrate with the jawbone between visits. Your exact treatment timeline will depend on your individual treatment plan.
Trip 1
Consultation and clinical evaluation
Extractions (if needed)
Bone grafting (if needed)
Implant placement
↓
Healing at Home
4-6 Months
Implant healing and osseointegration

Trip 2
Final evaluation
Abutment placement, when applicable
Final crown or implant-supported restoration
Bite check and final adjustments
Most patients spend about 4-7 days in Cali per trip.
You'll return home while your implant heals and integrates with the jawbone, typically over the next 4–6 months. Once healing is complete, you'll return to Cali for your final restoration.

Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Who May Be a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants can replace a single tooth, several teeth, or a full arch. Even patients who have been missing teeth for years or have experienced bone loss may still have implant treatment options.
Your dentist will evaluate your oral health, bone structure, medical history, and treatment goals to determine which approach may be appropriate for you.
You May Be a Good Candidate If You...
✓ Are missing one or more teeth
✓ Want a long-lasting replacement
✓ Have healthy gums or are willing to treat gum disease
✓ Have enough jawbone, or may benefit from bone grafting
✓ Are in good general health
✓ Are committed to good oral hygiene
What If You've Been Missing Teeth for Years?
Bone loss after tooth loss doesn't automatically mean dental implants aren't possible. Depending on your case, procedures such as bone grafting or a sinus lift may help prepare the area for implant placement.
When Implant Treatment May Need to Be Delayed
Dental implants are an option for many patients, but certain conditions may need to be addressed before implant treatment can begin.
✓ Active, untreated gum disease
✓ Severe bone loss that requires additional treatment first
✓ Certain uncontrolled medical conditions that affect healing
✓ Heavy smoking that may interfere with healing
✓ Poor oral hygiene that could compromise long-term implant success
What about smoking?
Smoking doesn't automatically rule out dental implants, but it can interfere with healing and increase the risk of implant complications. Our Cali dental team generally recommends stopping smoking before implant placement and during the healing period. Your dentist will provide guidance based on your individual case.

Dental Implants in Cali FAQs
-
Dental implant costs in Cali depend on the type of implant, restoration, and any additional procedures required. A titanium dental implant is $720 for the implant placement, while the final porcelain crown and abutment is $665. Full-arch implant treatment starts at $6,900 per arch for an All-on-4 restoration with a fixed acrylic bridge. Your final treatment plan and price are determined after your case is reviewed.
-
Single implant treatment is completed in phases. For a titanium implant, implant placement is $720 and a porcelain crown with abutment is $665. A zirconia implant is $810, with a zirconia crown and abutment priced at $755. Additional procedures such as bone grafting or a sinus lift are not included and are recommended only when clinically necessary.
-
Full-arch prices are per arch and include both implant placement and the final fixed bridge. All-on-4 with an acrylic bridge is $6,900 per arch, while All-on-6 with an acrylic bridge is $9,500 per arch. Porcelain options are also available. The appropriate number of implants and restoration type depend on your anatomy and treatment needs.
-
The prices shown on this page are per arch. For example, treating only the upper arch is one full-arch treatment. Patients who need both the upper and lower arches restored require treatment planning and pricing for both arches.
-
Dental implant treatment generally requires two trips to Colombia. During the first trip, the implants are placed. After a healing period that is commonly several months, you return for the second phase, when the final implant-supported teeth are completed. Your dentist will determine the appropriate timeline based on healing and your individual case.
-
For implant cases completed in two phases, international patients should generally plan approximately 4 to 7 days in Cali for each treatment trip. More complex cases may require a different schedule. We recommend confirming your treatment plan and appointment schedule before booking flights.
-
Possibly. Bone loss does not automatically mean you cannot receive dental implants. Your dentist will need appropriate imaging to evaluate the amount and quality of available bone. Some patients may require bone grafting, a sinus lift, or a modified implant treatment plan before or during implant placement.
-
A 3D CT scan is often used for implant planning because it allows the dentist to evaluate bone dimensions and important anatomical structures. If you already have recent dental imaging, you can submit it with your online consultation. Your dentist can determine whether additional imaging is necessary.
-
Titanium is widely used for dental implants because of its strength, long clinical history, and ability to integrate with bone. Zirconia is a metal-free alternative that may be considered in selected cases. The best material depends on your anatomy, restoration, medical history, and treatment goals rather than material preference alone.
-
The terms refer to the number of implants used to support a full-arch fixed restoration. More implants are not automatically better for every patient. The appropriate configuration depends on factors such as available bone, implant position, bite forces, and the dentist's treatment plan.
-
Temporary teeth may be possible depending on the treatment plan, implant stability, and clinical circumstances. They are not included in the full-arch prices listed on this page. Your dentist can explain the temporary restoration options available for your specific case before treatment begins.
-
Dental implants are designed as a long-term tooth-replacement option, but their lifespan varies. Oral hygiene, smoking, gum health, bite forces, medical conditions, regular dental care, and the health of the bone surrounding the implants can all affect long-term success. The restoration attached to an implant may also require maintenance or replacement over time.
-
Contact Dental Tourism Colombia as soon as possible so we can understand what is happening and coordinate with the treating dental team. Photos, X-rays, or an evaluation from a local dentist may be requested depending on the issue.

-
The first step is a free online consultation. You will provide dental photos and can upload any recent X-rays, CT scans, or existing treatment plans you have. A dentist can then review your case and provide personalized treatment recommendations. Some implant cases require additional imaging before a final treatment plan can be confirmed.
-
We recommend completing your online consultation and receiving an initial treatment plan before booking your trip. This helps determine what treatment may be needed, how long you should stay in Cali, and whether additional procedures or diagnostic imaging could affect your schedule.
