What a Single Tooth Implant Costs, State by State
SaveOne implant is really three billed parts and several optional add-ons, which is why two quotes for 'an implant' can land thousands apart without either being unfair. This guide breaks the quote into its pieces, consolidates what every state's own guide reported, and names the add-on that explains most of the gap.

The three parts of an implant quote
The post is a titanium fixture placed in the jaw, and it must fuse to the bone — osseointegration — before it can carry a load, which is why the timeline runs months rather than weeks. The abutment is the connector. The crown is the visible tooth.
Quotes diverge on what else is included: the extraction of the failing tooth, a bone graft if there is not enough bone to hold a fixture, a sinus lift in the upper back jaw, sedation, and the CBCT scan and surgical guide used to plan the case. Ask for each as a separate line.
What a single implant costs by state
Each row is that state's own published summary. Treat the range as a band for sanity-checking a quote, not a fee schedule.
| State | What the state's own guide reported |
|---|---|
| Alabama | A single tooth implant in Alabama typically costs $3,500 to $5,500 for the surgical post, abutment, and crown together, more if a bone graft is needed first. |
| Alaska | A single-tooth dental implant in Alaska typically runs $3,000 to $6,500 for the post, abutment, and crown together, close to the national range, since no major fee survey publishes an Alaska-only figure. Remote communities often add travel to Anchorage, Fairbanks, or Juneau on top of that bill. |
| Arizona | A single-tooth dental implant in Arizona typically runs $3,000 to $6,500 for the post, abutment, and crown together, close to the national range, since no major fee survey publishes an Arizona-only figure. |

| California | A single-tooth dental implant in California typically runs $3,500 to $7,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, trending above the national midpoint because the state's cost of living, and its lease and lab costs in the largest metros, tend to carry dental fees upward with them. |

| Massachusetts | A single-tooth dental implant in Massachusetts typically costs $3,500 to $7,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, trending above the national midpoint because Boston-area rents, wages, and lab costs carry dental fees upward with them. |

| Montana | A single-tooth implant in Montana typically costs $3,000 to $6,500 for the post, abutment, and crown together, in line with the national range, since no major fee survey publishes a Montana-only figure. |
| Nebraska | A single-tooth implant in Nebraska typically costs $3,000 to $6,500 for the post, abutment, and crown together, matching the national range, since no major fee survey breaks Nebraska out on its own. |
| Nevada | A single-tooth dental implant in Nevada typically costs $3,000 to $6,500 for the post, abutment, and crown together, close to the national range, since no major fee survey publishes a Nevada-only figure. |
| New Hampshire | A single-tooth implant in New Hampshire typically costs $3,000 to $6,500 for the post, abutment, and crown together, roughly the national range, since no major fee survey breaks the state out on its own line. |
| New Jersey | A single-tooth implant in New Jersey typically costs $3,200 to $6,800 for the surgical post, the abutment, and the crown together, running toward the higher end in the New York City-adjacent counties of North Jersey and toward the lower end across South Jersey. |
| New Mexico | A single-tooth implant in New Mexico typically costs $3,200 to $6,800 for the surgical post, abutment, and crown together — close to the national range, though 32 of the state's 33 counties are federally designated dental shortage areas, so many patients travel to Albuquerque or Las Cruces for the oral surgeon or periodontist who places it. |
| New York | A single tooth implant in New York costs several thousand dollars once the implant post, abutment, and crown are billed as separate fees, and Manhattan and the other boroughs typically run well above prices in the rest of the state. |
| North Carolina | A single tooth implant in North Carolina generally costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown combined, more when a bone graft or sedation is added. |
| North Dakota | A single tooth implant in North Dakota typically costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more with a bone graft or sedation added. |
| Ohio | A single tooth implant in Ohio generally costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more if a bone graft or sedation is added. |
| Oklahoma | A single tooth implant in Oklahoma typically costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more with a bone graft or sedation added. |
| Oregon | A single tooth implant in Oregon typically costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more if a bone graft or sedation is added. |

| Utah | A single tooth implant in Utah commonly costs $3,000 to $6,000 total for the post, abutment, and crown, more if a bone graft or sedation is needed. Prices along the Wasatch Front — Salt Lake City, Provo, Ogden — tend to sit at the higher end, where more oral surgeons and periodontists compete for patients; rural counties in southern and eastern Utah are often less, partly reflecting lower overhead rather than lower-quality work. |
| Vermont | A single tooth implant in Vermont typically runs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more with a bone graft or sedation. Because Vermont has so few oral surgeons and periodontists relative to its size, most of them practice in or near Burlington and Chittenden County, and someone in the Northeast Kingdom or southern Vermont may find a shorter drive to a specialist across the New Hampshire or New York line than to one within the state. |
| Virginia | A single tooth implant in Virginia commonly runs $3,200 to $6,200 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more with a bone graft or sedation added. |
| Washington | A single tooth implant in Washington state typically costs $3,200 to $6,200 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more if a bone graft or sedation is added. |
| West Virginia | West Virginia dental offices typically quote $3,000 to $6,000 for a complete single implant, folding together the surgical post, the connecting abutment, and the crown on top, with a bone graft or sedation adding more. |
| Wisconsin | A single tooth implant in Wisconsin generally costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown combined, more if a bone graft or sedation is needed. |
| Wyoming | A single tooth implant in Wyoming generally costs $3,000 to $6,000 for the post, abutment, and crown together, more when a bone graft or sedation is added. |
Every figure above is carried across from the state guide it came from, unchanged — the $3,500 in the Alabama row is Alabama's own published figure. Where a row quotes a national range or median instead of a figure of its own, that is the state page's own wording carried across with it — no state has a state-specific survey figure invented for it here.

Why implant prices move across state lines
Implants are surgical work with high fixed costs — imaging equipment, surgical time, and a specialist's overhead — so they follow commercial rent and wage levels closely. They also follow supply: metros with several oral surgery and periodontal practices price more competitively than a county with one.
The other big mover is whether the case needs bone. A graft or a sinus lift can add materially to the quote and months to the timeline, and it is the single most common reason two quotes for 'one implant' are far apart.
Making two quotes comparable
Compare your quote to your state's band, then ask the office to confirm in writing whether the post, abutment and crown are all included and whether any graft is anticipated. If a graft is likely, ask for the quote both ways.

Say it back
How would you explain this to someone you love?
Two or three sentences, just as you’d say it. Gale reflects back what you focused on — a mirror, not a quiz.
When an Implant Site Needs Prompt Attention
- —Facial swelling that spreads, especially with fever
- —Numbness of the lip or chin that persists after surgery
- —An implant that feels loose or a site that drains pus
Spreading facial swelling with fever, or any trouble breathing or swallowing, is a medical emergency: call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
