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.

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.
