National cost

Range	Amount

Typical	$860
High	$1,616

What is included

A narrow-diameter implant, most often used to stabilise a lower denture.

What is not

The denture or crown it supports.

The billing codes

D6013 surgical placement of mini implant.

Why the number varies

Priced per implant. Cheaper per unit than a standard implant, and used for different indications rather than as a substitute, so a lower unit price does not mean a lower total: denture stabilisation usually needs several.

Cutting the bill

A dental savings plan is not insurance, and for implants that can matter

Most dental insurance carries an annual maximum that a single implant can use up on its own, and many plans exclude implants outright. A dental savings plan works differently: it is a membership that gets you a discounted fee at participating dentists, with no annual cap and no waiting period. You pay the whole discounted price yourself.

It is a discount membership, not coverage. There is no insurer paying a share.
The discount applies only at dentists who participate, so check that yours does before you buy a plan.
The saving depends on the plan and the procedure, so confirm the fee for your specific treatment code before committing.

Getting a real number

Get quotes from more than one implant dentist

Nothing on this page is a quote. Implant pricing varies by practice, and the only figure that matters to you is the one on a written treatment plan after an examination. Getting more than one is the single most effective thing you can do about the cost.

Ask for the treatment plan in writing, with the CDT code against every line.
Check whether the quote covers the post, the abutment and the crown, or only some of them.
Ask what is not included: extraction, grafting, imaging, and sedation are often billed separately.

Costs in your state

No state index is published yet. A state gets a page once at least 3 individually sourced figures back it, and none has reached that bar, so the figure above is national. See the methodology for how states get built.

Frequently asked questions

Are mini implants a cheaper version of a normal implant?

They are a different device with different indications, most commonly denture stabilisation, not simply a discount option. Whether one is appropriate is a clinical question for your dentist.
