Prices are reference ranges, not quotes. Your exact cost depends on your diagnosis, bone condition, materials, and the number of implants required. You receive a written, itemized treatment plan after your exam and 3D imaging — before you commit to anything.
Lower prices in Tijuana come from lower operating costs, not lower standards. The American Dental Association notes that cost differences between countries reflect local economics rather than automatic differences in clinical quality. What matters is the individual clinic: the dentist’s credentials, the implant brand, the laboratory, and the follow-up protocol. That is why we publish what is included in every plan and put the warranty in writing.
A written plan with real numbers beats a vague promise — every time.
OUR TREATMENTS
Which implant treatment is right for you?
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth. It supports a crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. Treatment requires 2 trips: implant placement, then the final crown after 3–6 months of healing (osseointegration). Bone grafting, membranes, and PRP are available when the jaw needs reinforcement.
All-on-4 Dental Implants
All-on-4 replaces a complete arch of teeth (10–14 teeth) using only 4 titanium implants placed in a single surgery. Most patients leave with a fixed provisional prosthesis the same day; the final prosthesis is placed 3–6 months later. Because the rear implants are angled, many patients do not need bone grafting.
All-on-6 Dental Implants
All-on-6 replaces a full arch using 6 implants instead of 4. The two additional implants distribute biting forces over more surface area, adding stability for patients with moderate bone density or stronger bites. Your surgeon recommends 4, 6, or 8 implants based on your 3D CT scan — not on a package price.
All-on-8 & Full Mouth Restoration
All-on-8 uses 8 implants per arch — the maximum level of support — for patients with good bone volume who want the most stable foundation possible. A full mouth restoration combines treatment on both arches (implants, crowns, or a combination) into one coordinated plan.
Not sure which one fits your case? Send us your X-rays and a specialist will evaluate them at no cost.
SAFETY & QUALITY
Is it safe to get dental implants in Tijuana?
Dental implants in Tijuana can be a safe option when the clinic meets the right conditions: a licensed specialist performs the surgery, the clinic uses FDA-cleared implant brands, sterilization follows documented protocols, and you receive a written treatment plan and warranty. Safety depends on the clinic you choose — not on the city itself.
- Verifiable licenses. Our dentists hold Mexican professional licenses (cédula profesional) you can verify, and implant surgery is performed by specialists.
- Recognized implant brands. We work with established implant systems with FDA clearance and global distribution.
- Documented sterilization. Instrument protocols are consistent with CDC guidelines for dental settings.
- Specialist-performed surgery. Your surgery is performed by a specialist, not a general dentist.
- Written warranty. Your implant warranty is delivered in writing before treatment begins.
Ask any clinic three things: who performs the surgery, which implant brand they use, and what the warranty covers in writing.
STEP BY STEP
How does the treatment process work?
Most implant treatments require 2 trips to Tijuana, separated by 3–6 months of healing. All-on-4, All-on-6, and All-on-8 patients receive a fixed provisional prosthesis on the day of surgery, so you never leave without teeth.
- Free remote evaluation. Send us your X-rays or 3D scan. A specialist reviews your case and you receive a preliminary plan and price range.
- Trip 1 — Surgery (2–4 days). Exam, 3D CT scan, extractions if needed, implant placement, and your fixed provisional teeth.
- Healing at home (3–6 months). The implants fuse with your jawbone. Our team follows up with you remotely.
- Trip 2 — Final restoration (3–5 days). Your definitive prosthesis or crowns are placed and adjusted.
- Aftercare. Written maintenance plan, warranty documentation, and direct contact with our coordinators after you return home.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about dental implants in Tijuana
How much can I save on dental implants in Tijuana?
Most patients save 50–70% compared to average U.S. prices. A single implant typically costs $900–$1,500 in Tijuana versus $3,000–$5,000 in the United States.
How many trips do I need for dental implants or All-on-4?
Two trips for most patients: one for surgery (2–4 days) and one for the final restoration (3–5 days), with 3–6 months of healing at home in between.
Will my U.S. or Canadian dental insurance reimburse me?
Many PPO plans reimburse a portion of treatment received abroad as out-of-network care. We provide itemized receipts and treatment codes so you can file your claim. Reimbursement depends on your specific plan.
Do you speak English?
Yes. Our patient coordinators are bilingual, and your treatment plan, consent forms, and aftercare instructions are provided in English.
What happens if something goes wrong after I return home?
Contact us first. Your written warranty states exactly what is covered. We coordinate your follow-up, and minor adjustments can often be handled with a local dentist under our guidance.
Can I get dental implants in one trip?
No responsible clinic places final teeth on implants without healing time. You receive fixed provisional teeth on surgery day, but the definitive prosthesis requires 3–6 months of osseointegration. Be cautious of any clinic promising otherwise.
What is included in the treatment quote?
Your written plan itemizes everything: exam, 3D CT scan, extractions, bone grafting if needed, implants, abutments, provisional and final prosthesis, and follow-up visits. No hidden fees.
What documents do I need to cross the border?
U.S. and Canadian citizens need a valid passport or passport card to re-enter the United States. Our coordinators send you updated crossing information before your trip.
