The cost of bone grafting for dental implants is a common concern for those planning to get implants but require bone grafting due to insufficient jawbone density. Follow this article to prepare financially for your treatment.
1. Factors Affecting the Cost of Bone Grafting
The cost of bone grafting for dental implants varies depending on several factors:
Doctor’s Expertise
Experienced and highly skilled doctors can provide more accurate diagnoses, determining the precise areas needing bone grafting, selecting suitable bone materials, and performing procedures swiftly and accurately to avoid damage to surrounding areas. This expertise often results in higher costs for bone grafting.
Extent of Bone Loss
The degree of bone resorption affects the amount of bone material required, leading to variations in grafting costs.
Bone Material
The cost of bone grafting changes depending on the type of material used, such as synthetic bone or autologous bone.

3. When to pay for bone grafting?
Payment timing for bone grafting depends on two scenarios:
Scenario 1
If bone grafting and implant placement are performed in the same session, the cost of both procedures will be due immediately after the treatment.
Scenario 2
If bone grafting is performed first and implant placement is done 4–6 months later, you will only need to pay for the bone grafting initially. At Elite Dental, patients pay for each completed stage of treatment, avoiding upfront payment for the entire treatment plan.
4. Is bone grafting available with an installment plan?
To ease financial pressure, Elite Dental offers installment plans for dental implant treatments, including bone grafting, with the following details:
- Minimum installment amount: 20,000,000 VND.
- Customers must either already hold or agree to open a credit card with Standard Chartered, HSBC, or Shinhan Bank.
- Installment periods:
- Standard Chartered: 3/6/9 months.
- HSBC: 3/6 months.
- Shinhan Bank: 6 months
5. Does insurance cover bone grafting for implants?
Bone grafting and implant placement are considered elective dental services, so health insurance does not cover them.
6. How to avoid bone grafting costs for implants?
Elite Dental recommends the following to minimize the need for bone grafting:
(1) Get Dental Implants as Soon as Possible
This prevents jawbone resorption. Once the implant is placed, it acts as a stable tooth root, stimulating bone growth and halting further resorption. Timely implants also help prevent complications such as facial aging, hollow cheeks, and wrinkling.
(2) Maintain Good Oral Hygiene
Proper oral care after tooth loss—brushing, using dental floss, mouthwash, and water flossers—prevents dental issues like periodontal disease, which could affect the jawbone.
(3) Consult a Dentist Immediately After Tooth Loss
Visit a dentist promptly after losing a tooth to receive advice on restoration options and prevent bone resorption.
At Elite Dental, we are committed to thorough examinations and honest consultations to provide effective treatment with minimal costs.
With over 11 years of experience, Elite Dental is proud to have a team of skilled doctors who have attended numerous international training programs on bone grafting. Our team is adept at handling bone grafting cases ranging from simple to complex, laying the groundwork for successful implant placements.
We also utilize advanced equipment such as:
- CBCT imaging machines for accurate assessment of jawbone density.
- PRP centrifuge technology to accelerate healing and enhance bone volume during grafting.
Mr. Đ. shared his story:
“I lost two front teeth and used a dental bridge to cover the gap. Over time, the bridge broke, damaging the adjacent teeth and causing severe bone loss. I needed bone grafting before getting implants. To my surprise, the procedure at Elite was smooth and not as painful as I had imagined. The doctors here were meticulous and compassionate.”
Elite Dental advises patients to consider dental implants as soon as possible after tooth loss, especially for aesthetic areas like front teeth. Early implants prevent bone loss, eliminate the need for grafting costs, and avoid further complications.
