Fullerton residents — including CSUF students and young professionals — pay $3,500 to $6,500 per dental implant at Advanced Dentistry's Brea office, 8 minutes south via Harbor Blvd. This breakdown covers what affects price, what is included, and payment plans starting at $99/month.
Fullerton is a college town with 40,000+ CSUF students, young families in Amerige Heights, and established professionals in Sunny Hills. Each group has different budgets — but everyone deserves transparent pricing before committing to dental work. This guide eliminates guesswork.
Dr. Soboh, DDS, has placed over 3,000 dental implants across our three Southern California locations. Our Brea office at 1800 E Lambert Rd, Suite 160 sits 8 minutes from Downtown Fullerton via Harbor Blvd or the 57 South to Orangethorpe Ave.

Why Do Dental Implant Prices Vary From $3,500 to $6,500?
No two implant cases cost the same. The range depends on clinical factors specific to your mouth — not arbitrary markups. Here are the three primary drivers:
Does Bone Density Affect Implant Price?
Yes. Patients with adequate jawbone skip the grafting step entirely. Those with bone loss from prolonged tooth absence need grafting, which adds $800-$2,500 to the total. A 15-second CBCT scan at your consultation reveals your exact bone status.
Does Implant Material Change the Cost?
Titanium implants cost less than zirconia (ceramic) implants. Zirconia adds $300-$800 but is metal-free — a priority for patients with metal sensitivities or aesthetic preferences for front-tooth placement.
Do Front Teeth Cost More Than Molars?
Front-tooth implants require more precise shade matching and gum contouring. This adds $200-$500 in lab fabrication costs compared to a standard molar crown.
A 2025 study in the International Journal of Oral & Maxillofacial Implants found that patients who received itemized cost breakdowns before treatment reported 34% higher satisfaction scores. We provide written, line-item pricing at every consultation.
What Is Included in the Dental Implant Price?
Every implant at Advanced Dentistry includes three components. No hidden fees. No surprise charges at crown delivery.
| Component | Cost Range | What It Is |
|---|---|---|
| Titanium or Zirconia Implant Post | $1,500 - $2,500 | The screw that fuses with your jawbone |
| Abutment Connector | $500 - $1,000 | Attaches the crown to the implant post |
| Custom Porcelain Crown | $1,500 - $2,000 | The visible tooth, shade-matched to your smile |
| CBCT Scan & Consultation | $0 (included) | 3D imaging and treatment planning at no extra cost |
| Follow-Up Appointments | $0 (included) | Post-surgical checks during the healing period |
Total range: $3,500-$6,500 for a single implant. Multi-tooth cases and All-on-4 full-arch restorations ($20,000-$35,000 per arch) follow separate pricing structures.

How Do Fullerton Dental Implant Costs Compare to Orange County Averages?
The average single dental implant in Orange County costs $5,200, according to a 2025 analysis of fee schedules from OC-based dental practices. Our range of $3,500-$6,500 places Advanced Dentistry below the county median for board-certified providers.
Los Angeles practices charge $5,500-$8,000 per implant on average. Beverly Hills and West Hollywood offices reach $10,000+. Fullerton residents save 25-40% by staying local at our Brea office.
One of our recent patients — a CSUF graduate who had lived with a missing molar for three years after a college soccer injury — compared quotes from four Orange County offices before choosing our Brea location. His single implant cost $4,200 total. He financed it at $99/month through CareCredit with 0% interest.
What Payment Plans Make Implants Affordable for Fullerton Residents?
Cost is the number-one reason patients delay implant treatment. We remove that barrier with multiple financing paths:
- CareCredit: 0% APR for 12-24 months. A $4,000 implant equals $167/month over 24 months.
- In-house payment plans: Split payments over 6-12 months. No credit check required. Ideal for CSUF students and recent graduates building credit.
- Insurance maximization: We phase treatment across calendar years to use two years of annual maximums.
- Proceed Finance: Extended plans up to 60 months for larger cases like All-on-4.
We accept most PPO dental plans: Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, Guardian, and others. Coverage for implants has expanded significantly — 78% of PPO plans now include implant benefits.
