No dentist or oral surgeon has signed off on this guide. If one does, their name, credentials and review date will appear in this slot. We do not list reviewers who have not read the piece.

How this site is written

How we write this: from published patient information and treatment documentation, not from examining anyone. We publish no risk percentages or recovery statistics we cannot point to a source for, and where a figure is genuinely unknown the page shows a dash instead.

For both upper and lower fixed implant teeth, published U.S. pricing suggests a rough planning range of $28,000–$72,000, with some cases costing more. That figure doubles ClearChoice’s advertised $14,000–$36,000 per arch; it is not a two-arch quote, a national average or a guaranteed uninsured price.

Actual published two-arch examples include a $29,998 cash package for fixed resin-acrylic teeth at Deep River Family Dental and a $55,000 starting package for fixed zirconia teeth at Duo Dental Group.

Removable implant dentures can cost less. One dental provider’s 2026 guide estimates $12,000–$36,000 for both arches, though the actual cost depends on the treatment and what the quote includes. These are the provider’s ballpark estimates, not its own fees. Vaksman Dental Group’s cost guide

Without insurance, compare the total self-pay price through the final teeth, not just the implant surgery fee or advertised monthly payment.

Prices checked October 31, 2026. All amounts below are U.S. dollars.

First, check whether “full mouth” means both jaws

An arch is one row of teeth—upper or lower. A $20,000-per-arch advertisement is not a $20,000 price for both jaws.

Full-mouth replacement also does not necessarily mean an implant for every tooth. Several implants can support a complete row of replacement teeth:

  • Removable, or snap-in, implant dentures attach to implants but come out at home for cleaning.
  • Fixed full-arch teeth stay attached; a dentist can remove them for maintenance. All-on-4 is one fixed approach using four implants per arch.

These distinctions are explained in Cleveland Clinic’s implant-supported denture guide. For treatment and healing details, see our full-mouth implant options guide.

What published prices cover

These are examples of providers’ advertised packages, not a ranking, recommendation or nationwide fee schedule.

Treatment for both arches Published price Important scope details
Removable snap-in dentures at Deep River Family Dental, Connecticut $27,999 cash Eight implants, connecting components, snaps and dentures; extractions excluded
Fixed resin-acrylic teeth at the same practice $29,998 cash Extractions, implants, bone grafting and fixed hybrid resin-acrylic teeth included
Fixed zirconia teeth at Duo Dental Group Starting at $55,000 Evaluation, 3D scan, extractions if needed, four implants per arch, temporary bridges and final zirconia teeth; IV sedation excluded

ClearChoice’s pricing footnotes reference internal data and available discounts; some promotions require proof of insurance. An uninsured patient should ask which price applies and whether additional dentistry is needed. ClearChoice cost guide and pricing terms

Check whether final teeth cost extra

A lower price may cover surgery and temporary teeth, with the final bridge purchased later.

For example, Duo advertises a starting $20,000 single-arch package with a long-term temporary resin bridge, then lists $10,000–$12,000 for the final zirconia bridge. Adding those figures gives $30,000–$32,000 for one arch before excluded IV sedation, not $20,000 for completed treatment. Because the package is a starting price, the total could be higher. Duo’s staged pricing

Before comparing totals, have each office mark these items as included, separately priced or not needed:

  • Examination, imaging and treatment planning
  • Extractions, bone grafting or sinus work
  • Implant placement and connecting components
  • Local anesthesia, sedation and any separate anesthesia-provider fees
  • Temporary teeth, final teeth and the final material
  • Follow-up visits, adjustments and treatment if the plan changes

Preparatory procedures can increase the cost, and ongoing care creates expenses after treatment. ClearChoice’s full-mouth cost explanation identifies both. Ask separately about future cleanings, repairs and replacement teeth; do not assume a warranty covers every complication.

Separate treatment cost from borrowing cost

Request both a cash total and a financed total. Deep River explicitly warns that financing may involve additional fees beyond its advertised cash prices. Cash-price terms

For any payment plan, compare the down payment, payment count, annual percentage rate (APR), fees and total repayment. “No interest if paid in full” is not necessarily the same as an unconditional 0% loan: ClearChoice’s CareCredit disclosure says interest is charged from the purchase date if the promotional balance is not fully paid by the deadline. Minimum payments may not clear it in time. Financing disclosure

At consultation, ask: “What is my total self-pay cost for both arches through the final teeth, what is excluded, and what could increase it?” A qualified dentist or oral surgeon must first establish which teeth need replacement and which implant options are clinically suitable. Then you can compare written quotes on the same treatment scope.
