Dental implants in Claremont cost between $3,500 and $6,500 per tooth at Advanced Dentistry's Pomona office, 8 minutes from downtown Claremont. This guide breaks down costs by implant type, insurance coverage, financing plans, and the factors that determine your final price.
Claremont's Village district and the tree-lined streets around the Claremont Colleges create one of the most sought-after communities in the Inland Empire. Residents here value long-term investments — in education, in their homes, and in their health. Dental implants are no different. They're the only tooth replacement that preserves jawbone density and lasts 25+ years, making them the most cost-effective option per year of use.
In our 20+ years serving Claremont and the surrounding Pomona Valley, Dr. Soboh has placed over 3,000 dental implants. Our Pomona office sits just 8 minutes from central Claremont via the I-10 — take the Indian Hill Blvd exit and head south on Mission Blvd.

How Much Do Single Dental Implants Cost in Claremont?
A single dental implant at our Pomona office ranges from $3,500 to $5,500. This price includes three components: the titanium or zirconia implant post ($1,500-$2,500), the abutment connector ($500-$1,000), and the custom porcelain crown ($1,500-$2,000).
The range depends on three primary factors:
| Factor | Impact on Cost | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Bone grafting | +$800-$2,500 | Required when jawbone has thinned from prolonged tooth loss |
| Implant material | +$300-$800 | Zirconia (ceramic) costs more than titanium but is metal-free |
| Crown complexity | +$200-$500 | Front teeth require more aesthetic precision than molars |
For Claremont residents comparing prices: the national average for a single implant is $5,000. Our pricing falls in the competitive range for Southern California board-certified specialists.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Implants for Claremont Residents?
Most PPO dental plans now cover a portion of dental implant treatment. Coverage typically ranges from 25% to 50% of the implant and crown cost, with annual maximums of $1,500-$2,500. We accept Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, Guardian, and most other PPO plans.
Our front desk team verifies your specific benefits before treatment so you know your exact out-of-pocket cost. No surprises.
Medical insurance (not dental) sometimes covers the implant post if tooth loss resulted from an accident or medical condition. We help patients file dual claims when applicable.

Schedule Free Assessment →What Financing Options Are Available for Dental Implants?
We offer multiple financing paths so cost doesn't prevent Claremont residents from getting the care they need:
- CareCredit: 0% APR for 12-24 months on qualified purchases. A single implant at $3,500 equals roughly $146/month over 24 months.
- In-house payment plans: Spread payments over 6-12 months with no credit check required.
- Insurance maximization: We phase treatment across calendar years to maximize annual benefits — two implants can leverage two years of insurance maximums.
Many Claremont patients combine insurance benefits with CareCredit, reducing their out-of-pocket cost to under $99/month.
What Makes Claremont Residents Choose Our Pomona Office for Implants?
Claremont sits at the intersection of the I-10 and the 210 freeway, giving residents easy access to dental providers across the San Gabriel Valley and Inland Empire. Yet many Claremont families — particularly those in the Village area, along Baseline Road, and in the neighborhoods surrounding Claremont McKenna and Pomona College — choose our Pomona office for implants rather than traveling to Los Angeles or the Inland Empire medical corridors.
The reason: board-certified specialists with a transparent pricing model, 8 minutes from your front door. Our Pomona office at 101 West Mission Blvd is directly off the I-10 at the Indian Hill exit. Patients from North Claremont near the Wilderness Park area reach us in under 10 minutes. Residents near the Claremont Village and Foothill Blvd can take surface streets via Towne Avenue in about the same time.
Dr. Soboh has placed over 3,000 implants and uses cone-beam CT (CBCT) scanning to plan every case with sub-millimeter precision. This technology reduces surgical time, improves accuracy, and means faster recovery for our patients.

How Long Does the Dental Implant Process Take?
The complete dental implant process takes 3-6 months from placement to final crown. Here's the timeline:
- Consultation and CBCT scan (Day 1): 45-minute appointment. We assess bone density, take 3D imaging, and create your treatment plan with exact pricing.
- Implant placement (Week 2-3): A 45-90 minute procedure under local anesthesia. Most patients report less discomfort than a tooth extraction.
- Osseointegration (Months 1-4): The implant fuses with your jawbone. You wear a temporary restoration during this period.
- Final crown placement (Month 4-6): We attach your custom-milled porcelain crown. This 30-minute appointment completes the process.
For qualifying patients, we offer same-day implants with immediate loading — you walk in with a missing tooth and walk out with a temporary implant-supported crown the same day.
How Do Claremont Implant Costs Compare to National Averages?
Southern California dental implant costs run 10-15% higher than the national average due to higher operating costs and the concentration of board-certified specialists. The national average sits at $5,000 for a single implant. Our range of $3,500-$5,500 places Advanced Dentistry at the competitive end for the region — without cutting corners on materials or expertise.
A 2024 study published in the Journal of Oral Implantology found that implant success rates correlate directly with provider experience: dentists who have placed 500+ implants achieve success rates above 97%, compared to 91% for those with fewer than 100 placements. Dr. Soboh's 3,000+ implant case history puts our practice firmly in the highest-success category.
Home to the Claremont Colleges — a consortium of five undergraduate and two graduate institutions — Claremont attracts residents who research decisions thoroughly. The median household income in Claremont exceeds $100,000, and residents here invest in evidence-based healthcare. Our approach to implant consultation reflects this: every patient receives a 3D CBCT scan, a written treatment plan with itemized costs, and published success rate data before making any commitment.

How Much Does a Single Dental Implant Cost in Claremont?
A single dental implant at our Pomona office costs $3,500 to $5,500, including the implant post, abutment, and porcelain crown. The final price depends on bone grafting needs, implant material choice, and crown complexity. We provide exact pricing at your free consultation after CBCT imaging.

How Far Is the Pomona Office From Claremont?
Our Pomona office at 101 W Mission Blvd is 8 minutes from central Claremont via the I-10 at Indian Hill Blvd. Patients from North Claremont, the Village, and Foothill Blvd areas all reach us in under 10 minutes.
Are Dental Implants Worth the Cost Compared to Dentures?
Dental implants cost more upfront but last 25+ years versus 5-7 years for dentures, making implants more cost-effective long-term. Implants also preserve jawbone density, prevent facial collapse, and function identically to natural teeth — no adhesives, no slipping, no dietary restrictions.
Can I Get Dental Implants If I Have Bone Loss?
Yes — bone grafting restores the jawbone density needed for successful implant placement, adding $800-$2,500 to the total cost. Dr. Soboh evaluates bone density with CBCT imaging at your consultation. Many patients with moderate bone loss qualify for implants with a minor grafting procedure.
How Soon After a Tooth Extraction Can I Get an Implant?
Immediate implant placement is possible on the same day as extraction for qualifying patients, eliminating the 3-4 month healing wait. Dr. Soboh determines candidacy based on the extraction site condition and bone quality. Roughly 60% of our extraction patients qualify for same-day implant placement.
