Does an office near you publish a fee for a dental bone graft?
Piedmont Dental does not publish a fee for a dental bone graft. The front desk can tell you whether the office does it and quote a fee. Until an office publishes one with this site, the national range above is the best guide, and any office should give you its fee before treatment starts.
Does insurance change the cost of a dental bone graft?
Every figure on this page is the cost without insurance. A dental plan usually pays part of a dental bone graft; how much depends on the plan, the yearly maximum and any waiting period, so ask the office to check your benefits before treatment starts.
What these numbers do and do not includeEach fee is for one procedure on one tooth, not the whole visit. An exam comes first, and whatever the tooth needs after that, a filling, an extraction, a crown, is its own line. The fee can also move with what the dentist finds once they are looking at the tooth: a cavity that looked small on the x-ray can need a bigger filling, and an extraction that looked simple can turn surgical. Treat this as a starting point. The exact number for your visit is confirmed before any treatment starts.
Can you pay for a dental bone graft over time?
Many offices take payment plans or financing such as CareCredit, a medical credit card; terms vary, so read them before you sign. Piedmont Dental lists cash, check, all major credit cards and CareCredit on its payment options page, and says it has no in-house membership plan. Ask the office for one written price for a dental bone graft before you choose how to pay.

Common questions about dental bone graft cost
Is a dental bone graft worth it?
When an implant is planned and the bone is too thin, a graft is often what makes the implant possible. Ask your dentist whether you need one and what it adds to the plan.
Will insurance pay for a bone graft?
Some plans pay part, especially with an extraction. Many limit implant-related work. Ask the office to check your benefits.
How painful is a tooth bone graft?
The area is numbed, so most people feel pressure. Soreness and swelling for a few days after are common.
