The cost of dental implants in Essendon
No two implant treatments are exactly alike. At FirstBite Dental, we look at your overall oral health, the number of missing teeth, bone support, and any additional treatment needed to determine the cost of dental implants.
How Do We Determine The Cost of Our Dental Implants?
We start every dental implant case with detailed planning. Our team carries out a full clinical assessment, reviews 3D scans, and takes the time to understand your goals before treatment begins.
Since no two cases are the same, dental implant costs in Essendon can vary. Once we’ve reviewed all diagnostic information, you’ll receive a clear, personalised written quote at your final consultation. Any prices listed on this page are provided as a general guide only.
We only use genuine parts from trusted implant systems and work with Australian dental labs for all treatments.
How Much Does a Single Dental Implant Cost?
If you’re missing one tooth, a single dental implant is often the most practical long-term option.
Your treatment begins with an initial consultation, where we take a 3D X-ray to check the condition of your jawbone and surrounding structures. From there, we talk through suitable options and outline what the process would look like for you.
- Initial consultation fee: $280
- Estimated cost of a single dental implant with crown: $4,400
Treatment usually takes place over two to three stages and is completed within three to six months, depending on healing time.
If the missing tooth is visible when you smile, we can discuss temporary tooth options while the implant integrates with the bone. In some cases, limited bone or nearby structures such as the sinus may influence planning. These factors are reviewed and explained during your consultation.
We use digital planning and CAD-CAM surgical guides to support accurate implant placement.
How Much Do Multiple Implants Cost?
When several teeth are missing in the same area, multiple implants can be used to support a fixed bridge rather than replacing each tooth individually.
This approach restores both appearance and function while reducing the total number of implants required. Digital planning and surgical guides help position the implants accurately and safely.
The assessment process is similar to single implants. Dental implant costs for multiple teeth vary based on the number of implants, the type of bridge used, and whether additional procedures are required. All of this is discussed upfront.
Cost to Replace a Full Set of Teeth With Implants
Implants can be used to replace up to 12-14 teeth with the use of Implant Supported Dentures. Other common names for these include All on 4 or All on 6, which indicates the number of implants being used.

Additional Procedures That May Affect Dental Implant Costs
Some patients need supporting treatment before or during implant placement. These procedures are not always required, but when they are, they are discussed clearly as part of your treatment plan.
These may include:
- Bone grafting
- Sinus lifts
- CAD-CAM milled surgical guides
Surgical guides are created using 3D scans and dental impressions to help place implants in the planned position during surgery.
Why Dental Implant Costs Can Vary
A few common factors influence dental implant costs in Essendon, including:
- How many implants are needed
- Bone quality and jaw shape
- Whether grafting or sinus treatment is required
- The type of crown, bridge, or denture used
- Healing time between stages
This is why online pricing can only ever be an estimate without a proper assessment.
Health Funds and Payment Information
Dental implants are considered a major dental procedure. Depending on your level of cover and waiting periods, some private health funds may contribute towards parts of the treatment, such as the crown or surgical components.
After your consultation, we can provide item numbers so you can check potential rebates with your health fund..
FAQs: Dental Implant Costs in Essendon
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, they can last decades. You may need to replace the crown eventually, but the implant itself is designed to be permanent.
Are cheaper implants worth it?
Cheaper options can mean lower-grade materials or overseas components. When it’s something going into your body, quality matters.
Do implants feel like real teeth?
Yes. Once healed, they feel stable and natural—no clicking, slipping, or taking them out at night.
Can I space out the payments?
Yes. Since treatment takes place over a few months, you’re not paying everything upfront. We’ll go over timing and costs at your consultation.
Thinking About Dental Implants Overseas?
If you’re considering treatment overseas, we recommend reading our article on dental tourism before deciding. Follow-up care and long-term support are important parts of implant treatment.
