How much does replacing a tooth with an implant cost?

How much does an implant cost at Fábrica do Sorriso?

At Fábrica do Sorriso, the final price is established after your initial consultation. The team assesses your teeth, gums and available bone, identifies any necessary examinations, and recommends a treatment plan tailored to you.

The implant, connecting abutment and crown are different components. At your appointment, we explain which are part of your plan, what is included in the quoted price and whether additional examinations or procedures are needed. Confirm the conditions with your chosen clinic before starting treatment.

What does the price of a dental implant include?

To help you understand the full quote, our team explains the treatment components and identifies those needed in your case:

At Fábrica do Sorriso, we work with Straumann and MegaGen. The team explains the proposed system and itemises the implant, prosthetic components, crown or denture, and any examinations or grafts needed. Confirm which follow-up care is included; the brand alone does not guarantee the outcome.

• —Assessment appointment and diagnostic examinations — a clinical examination and X-ray to study the available bone and plan the position of the implant.
• —The implant itself — the artificial root in titanium or zirconia placed in the bone.
• —The abutment — the connecting piece between the implant and the crown.
• —The crown — the visible tooth, custom-made in colour and shape.
• —Additional procedures, when needed — bone graft, sinus lift or extraction of the compromised tooth.
• —Follow-up appointments during healing and after the crown is fitted.

Which factors make the price vary?

In practice, five factors weigh most on the final cost:

• Number of teeth to replace

  a single implant, an implant-supported bridge or a full-arch rehabilitation are treatments on very different scales.

• Implant system

  we work with Straumann and MegaGen. The proposed system and prosthetic components are selected and quoted according to your assessment.

• Type of restoration

  a crown, bridge or implant-supported denture involves different components and stages, itemised in your treatment plan.

• Bone quality and quantity

  where there is bone loss, a graft may be needed, which adds a stage and a cost to the plan.

• Case complexity

  teeth to extract, infections to treat first, or proximity to anatomical structures that requires additional planning.

How can you compare your implant quote?

Compare written plans for the same complete solution, including the final tooth and the planned follow-up. Check the components and treatment stages included in each proposal.

At Fábrica do Sorriso, ask the team to explain the proposed implant, abutment, crown, examinations, additional procedures and follow-up. The aim is to understand the costs of your plan before deciding.

How can the treatment be made more affordable?

There are three routes we use every day with our patients:

• Paying in instalments

  through Cofidis Pay, the cost of the treatment can be split into monthly payments, agreed before you start.

• Health insurance and health subsystems

  we have agreements with several insurers and subsystems; depending on your plan, part of the treatment may be covered. Bring your insurance details to the appointment and we will check the conditions.

• A phased plan

  when the treatment involves several teeth, the plan can be staged over time, treating what is most urgent first.

• Explore insurance, agreements and financing

How does implant treatment work at Fábrica do Sorriso?

Treatment follows stages agreed after assessment. Healing may take several months, and your schedule is discussed with you.

A fixed temporary prosthesis on the day of surgery is an option in selected cases, depending on assessment and implant stability. It is not the final prosthesis and is not suitable for every patient.

• Planning

  a clinical examination, bone assessment with the recommended imaging, including 3D CBCT when needed, and presentation of your plan and quote.

• Surgery

  placement of the implant under local anaesthesia. The team explains care after surgery, discomfort management and when to contact the clinic.

• Healing

  follow-up while the implant integrates with the bone before proceeding to the prosthetic stage.

• Crown or denture

  fitting the final restoration planned for your case, followed by maintenance and review appointments.

Why do clinics charge such different prices for implants?

The differences mainly reflect the brand and quality of the implants, what is included in the price (just the implant vs. the full treatment), the experience of the team and the post-treatment follow-up. Always compare complete, written quotes — not advertised prices — and confirm what happens if something needs to be redone.
