Dental Implant Estimate

Dental implants in Tucson, AZ: cost estimate and public records

Compiled by Kindred Works LLC editorial from federal datasets. Data retrieved October 5, 2026. 4 of 4 city-level datasets have records for Tucson.

The CMS NPI registry lists 681 active dentists with a practice address in Tucson, and 49 of them list oral and maxillofacial surgery, prosthodontics or periodontics as their primary specialty. HRSA lists 25 health center sites in the city run by 3 organizations. Our cost estimate for the Tucson, AZ area applies BEA's published price index for the metro to national cost figures, and the arithmetic is shown under the table. Among the 60 cities with pages on this site, Tucson has the 6th-highest figure for residents aged 65 and over (16.2%). Nothing on this page is a quote, a review or a recommendation of any practice.

Estimated implant costs for the Tucson, AZ area

Medical disclaimer: This site publishes prices, not treatment advice. Nothing here is dental or medical advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment plan, and no figure is a quote. Only a licensed dentist who has examined you can say which procedure you need or what it will cost.

ProcedureNational typicalOur Tucson area estimateEstimate range
Single implant$2,143$2,150$1,650 to $4,150
All-on-4 (per arch)$15,176$15,150$11,625 to $27,450
Mini implants$860$850$675 to $1,625
Bone graft$558$550$425 to $1,075
Sinus lift$2,022$2,025$1,600 to $3,825
Extraction$363$350$275 to $700

How we got these numbers. Each national figure is multiplied by 99.8 / 100, BEA's 2024 "Services: Other" regional price parity for the Tucson, AZ metro area (United States = 100), then rounded to the nearest $25. For example, $2,143 × 0.998 = $2,139, shown as $2,150. The metro's all-items parity is 96.9. The index is not dental-specific and the national inputs are aggregator estimates, so this is a planning figure, not a price any practice charges (method and limits).

CDC's estimate of past-year dental visits in Tucson (52.5%) is lower than the 58.1% it estimates for Pima County. For complete tooth loss among adults 65 and over, the city estimate is 14.4% against 14.1% for the county. Both are CDC model estimates from survey data, not patient counts.

The share of Tucson residents aged 65 and over is lower than the national share in the same survey. It bears on how implants get paid for, because Medicare.gov says that in most cases Medicare does not cover dental services or items such as dentures and implants. If you have a Medicare Advantage or other plan, check its documents for any dental benefit.
