Dental Implants in Kansas City

2 clinics · ranked by rating & reviews · updated 2026

A dental implant replaces a missing tooth with three parts that may be priced together or separately: the implant post, the abutment and the crown. That three-part structure is the main thing to understand when comparing quotes - an advertised implant price sometimes covers only the post, so always ask whether the abutment and crown are included. Practices listed here range from general dentists who place implants to specialists such as periodontists, oral surgeons and prosthodontists. Extra line items like 3D imaging, extractions or bone grafting can appear on a quote depending on the case, which is why written, itemized estimates are the only reliable way to compare. Confirm the all-in price at a consultation with a licensed dentist.

Typically $3,000-6,500 all-in for the implant, abutment and crown. Advertised prices sometimes cover only the implant post, and items like imaging, an extraction or bone grafting can add to a quote. Ask for a written, itemized estimate at a consultation with a licensed dentist.
How do I choose an implant dentist? +
Compare itemized quotes from two or three consultations, ask how many implant cases the practice handles per year, and check Google review counts. Whether it's a general dentist, periodontist or oral surgeon, the office should map out the full treatment plan and total cost in writing.
How long does the dental implant process take? +
Plan for multiple visits over several months - implant placement and the final crown are usually separate appointments spaced apart. The exact timeline depends on the case, so ask each practice to lay out the visit schedule alongside the quote.
