A cheap implant is not a mistake in itself. The mistake is a quote that leaves things out. At Smile Dental Kondapur a single implant starts from ₹25,000, and a complete tooth with its crown costs ₹35,000 to ₹88,000, depending on the implant system and crown you choose.
The price gap between quotes mostly comes from three things: the implant brand, the crown material and whether a bone graft is needed. This guide shows the price of each system we use, what a very low quote usually leaves out, what replacing a failed implant involves, and six questions to ask any clinic before you book.
The implant system is the biggest single reason two quotes differ. These are the systems we use at both clinics, with the price of the implant alone:
| Implant system | Implant price |
|---|---|
| ADIN / Bioline / ARKA | ₹25,000 |
| Neodent / Neo Biotech | ₹40,000 |
| Neodent ACQUA / OSSTEM | ₹45,000 |
| Bredent / Bio-Horizon | ₹55,000 |
| Nobel Biocare Parallel / Replace | ₹55,000 to ₹60,000 |
| Nobel Biocare Active | ₹70,000 |
The crown on top is separate: a metal-ceramic (MLS / DMLS) crown costs ₹10,000 to ₹12,000 and a zirconia crown ₹18,000. Most patients land at ₹55,000 to ₹70,000 for the whole tooth. If the bone is thin, a graft adds ₹10,000 to ₹50,000.
Every system on this list works well when it suits the bone and the tooth. A higher price usually buys a longer research record and a wider choice of parts, not a different result for a simple case. The doctor tells you which systems suit your bone, and when the ₹25,000 option does the job, that is the one we suggest first.
Ask three things: the brand name, who supplies it in India, and whether parts for it will still be easy to get in 10 years. Many implant systems are sold in India, and a brand you have not heard of is not a bad brand. What matters later is the parts: when the crown wears out years from now, the new one has to fit that exact implant. A well supported system makes that a simple visit.
Usually because the quote covers the implant post only, and the rest is billed later. A complete implant tooth has three parts: the titanium post in the bone, the abutment that connects it, and the crown you see. Add the X-rays, the surgery visit and the reviews while it heals, and a single implant with its crown starts at about ₹35,000 at most good clinics.
When an advertised price sits far below that, check what is missing:
If all of these are covered and the price is still low, it may simply be a good price. The point is to compare complete quotes, not headline numbers.
The old implant is taken out, the cause is found and fixed, and a new implant goes in, either on the same day or after the site heals. Implant failure is not common, and most failed sites can take a new implant.
The steps usually look like this:
The price depends on the cause and how much bone is left, so we do not quote a figure before seeing it. The parts are priced as usual: a new implant from ₹25,000, a crown ₹10,000 to ₹18,000, and a graft ₹10,000 to ₹50,000 only if needed. Your exact total is in the written plan after the ₹500 consultation. If the implant was placed at another clinic, bring its brand name or implant card if you have one; it helps with the parts.
Besides the brand, the crown and a graft, the price changes with the number of teeth and the position in the mouth.
Several teeth in a row can often be replaced with two implants holding a bridge, which costs less than one implant per tooth. A whole jaw is a different treatment: All-on-4 dental implants cost ₹2,50,000 to ₹4,00,000 per arch. Front teeth often suit a zirconia crown for the look; back teeth do well with metal-ceramic. If bone grafting is needed, the plan says so, with its price, before anything starts.
For every option and a worked example, see the full dental implant cost guide for Kondapur, or read about dental implants in Kondapur and Vizag.
A bridge is cheaper upfront; an implant usually lasts longer and leaves the teeth next to the gap untouched.
| Single implant with crown | 3-unit bridge | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | ₹35,000 to ₹88,000 | ₹12,000 to ₹35,000 |
| Neighbouring teeth | Not touched | Shaped to hold the bridge |
| Time | About 4 to 6 months, 3 to 4 visits | About 2 visits |
| Lasts | Post can last decades; crown 10 to 15 years | About 10 to 15 years |
If the teeth on either side already have large fillings or crowns, a bridge makes good use of them. If they are healthy, an implant keeps them that way. We show both, with their prices, in your written plan.
These apply to any clinic, including ours. A good clinic answers all six without hesitation.
1. Which implant system will you use? Ask for the brand name and look it up.
2. Does the price include the abutment, the crown and the surgery? Compare complete quotes, not post-only prices.
3. How will you check my bone before placement? X-rays or a 3D scan should come before the implant, not after.
4. Who places the implant, and what training do they have? At Smile Dental it is Dr. Rajesh Kumar Y, Fellow of Implantology (Germany) and an MDS orthodontist and facial orthopedist.
5. What happens if the implant does not take? Ask what is covered and what you would pay.
6. Can I have the plan in writing? A written plan with each item priced lets you compare clinics fairly.
The first visit costs ₹500 and includes an iTero 3D scan of your teeth, an examination of the gap and the gums, and X-rays if needed (₹200 to ₹500). The doctor explains whether an implant, a bridge or a denture suits you, including when waiting is the better call.
You take home a written plan with the implant systems that suit you, the crown, any graft, each with its price, and the timeline (usually 3 to 4 visits over 4 to 6 months). There is no pressure to decide on the day. Smile Dental has been caring for patients since 1997 and is ISO 9001 certified.

At Smile Dental Kondapur the implant starts from ₹25,000, and a complete tooth with its crown costs ₹35,000 to ₹88,000. Most patients pay ₹55,000 to ₹70,000. A bone graft, if needed, adds ₹10,000 to ₹50,000. The same prices apply in Vizag.
A lower price can be perfectly safe when the brand is known, the bone is checked before placement and the quote includes the crown and reviews. Our entry implant systems (ADIN, Bioline, ARKA) cost ₹25,000 and are often the first option we suggest.
Brands differ in their research record, the range of parts and the supplier's price. At Smile Dental they run from ₹25,000 (ADIN, Bioline, ARKA) to ₹70,000 (Nobel Biocare Active). For most single teeth the doctor can suggest a system at the lower end.
It depends on why it failed and how much bone is left, so the exact figure is in your written plan after the ₹500 consultation. The parts are priced as usual: a new implant from ₹25,000, a crown ₹10,000 to ₹18,000, and a bone graft ₹10,000 to ₹50,000 only if needed.
Usually, yes. Once the old implant is out and the cause is treated, a new one can often be placed, sometimes on the same day and sometimes after a graft heals for a few months.
No. The implant starts from ₹25,000 and the crown is added: ₹10,000 to ₹12,000 for metal-ceramic or ₹18,000 for zirconia. Your written plan lists both, so the total is clear before you start.
The area is numbed, so most people feel pressure rather than pain while the implant goes in. Some soreness and swelling for a few days afterwards is normal and eases steadily.
The implant post can last for decades with good cleaning and regular checkups. The crown on top usually needs replacing after 10 to 15 years of normal wear.
Root canal treatment at Smile Dental Clinic in Kondapur costs ₹7,500 for most teeth with X-rays, ₹5,000 to ₹12,000 by tooth. Core build-up ₹2,000 to ₹3,000; crown ₹5,000 to ₹20,000 by material.
