How much does an implant cost?

One non-covered implant costs MegaGen KRW 790,000, Dentis KRW 890,000, or Osstem BA KRW 990,000 (fixture, custom abutment, and crown included). Bone grafting and sinus lift are charged separately, and we give an estimate after CT. You can see the amount for each item in our Non-covered Treatment Fees guide.

Is bone grafting always needed for an implant?

No. If a position leaves 2 mm of bone on the cheek side and 1.5 mm on the tongue side, the implant is placed without grafting; grafting is done only when no such position can be found even after shifting the placement.

How long does implant treatment take?

After placement, the lower jaw takes about 3 months and the upper jaw 4 to 6 months; a full arch takes about 4 months in the lower jaw and 4 to 8 months in the upper jaw. With a sinus lift it takes 4 to 5 months when conditions are good from the first surgery, 6 to 7 months when staged adaptation is needed, and about 7 to 8 months in total when the lift is done first. Waiting time after an extraction is separate.

Is implant surgery very painful?

Anesthesia is given in four steps: a rinse, a topical ointment, an automated anesthesia device, and pressure anesthesia when the palate needs to be numbed. Swelling is greatest on days 2 to 3 and usually subsides within a week.

How does National Health Insurance cover implants for patients aged 65 or older?

Patients aged 65 or older with some natural teeth remaining are covered for two implants in a lifetime with a standard 30% co-payment. Coverage of two implants for fully edentulous patients is scheduled to begin in January 2027.

IMPLANT

Dental Implants

On day one, two Integrated Dentistry specialists use a 3D CT to first look for sites where an implant can be placed without bone grafting.

Overview

On day one, we measure four numbers on the 3D CT

At Yeonhap Dental Clinic, two Integrated Dentistry specialists provide care, and your treating dentist follows you through consultation, surgery and the prosthesis. On the first day, a 3D CT is used to measure the bone on the cheek side and tongue side, and the distance to the maxillary sinus (the air space above the upper molars) and the nerve canal. The price of one implant is the sum of the fixture, the connecting post (abutment) and the crown; bone grafting and sinus lifts are charged separately when needed. Choose your situation from the 18 guides below.

Cheek-side bone 2 mm
Tongue-side bone 1.5 mm
7 mm to the sinus
5 mm above the nerve canal (criterion for considering a 4 mm short implant)

These four numbers are Yeonhap Dental Clinic's criteria for reviewing a treatment plan; the final method is decided by the condition of your mouth.

Yeonhap Care

What Is Special About Yeonhap Dental Clinic

Care by two Integrated Dentistry specialists
Two specialists analyze the 3D scanner and 3D CT data, place the implant at a position that protects the biologic width, and design the crown with a shape the toothbrush can reach at the gum margin (prosthesis emergence angle within 30 degrees) to reduce the risk of peri-implantitis.
Bone grafting only when the criteria are not met
We look for a position, within the range of the prosthesis, that leaves 2 mm of bone on the cheek side and 1.5 mm on the tongue and palate side, and graft bone if there is none. For upper molars, we consider a sinus lift when remaining bone is under 7 mm.
Health conditions and medications checked in advance
Osteoporosis drugs, anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs, and diabetes medication are never stopped on your own; the timing is decided with the prescribing doctor. For diabetes, treatment proceeds within the range where blood sugar is controlled.

01 · Site

Front-tooth implant

Three conditions for a length that matches the neighboring teeth

For a front tooth to emerge at the same length as its neighbors, the position, angle and bone must all be right. Yeonhap Dental Clinic places the implant inside the line connecting the edges of the neighboring teeth. If the gum condition and initial stability meet the criteria for immediate placement, we place it on the day of extraction and fill the cheek-side gap with bone graft material to 2 mm. With sufficient initial stability, we sometimes connect a temporary tooth adjusted so that chewing force does not load it directly on the same day.

Molar implant

Criteria for width, length and number

As a baseline, Yeonhap Dental Clinic uses a diameter of 4.0–4.5 mm for premolars and 4.5–5.0 mm for molars, with a length of at least 7 mm. For upper molars, we consider a sinus lift when remaining bone is under 7 mm; for lower molars, we check that 2 mm can be secured above the nerve canal. If that is not possible, we consider a short implant 5 mm or more in diameter and 4–6 mm in length. We place an implant even when only the last tooth, the 7th, is missing.

Implant with bone graft

Whether grafting is needed depends on 2 mm of cheek-side bone

If a position that leaves 2 mm of cheek-side bone and 1.5 mm on the tongue side can be found, no bone graft is done. In the group with less than 2 mm of cheek-side bone at placement, marginal bone loss one year after the prosthesis was connected was 0.36 mm, about 12 times the 0.03 mm in the group with 2 mm or more[31]. When needed, Yeonhap Dental Clinic does four steps on the same day as placement: making holes in the bone surface, graft material, a membrane and fixation. We do not do a staged surgery in which only the graft is done first, so the timeline is not lengthened because of it; the cost is charged separately.

04 · Jawbone

Implant with sinus lift

7 mm of remaining bone is the criterion

When remaining bone is under 7 mm, Yeonhap Dental Clinic considers a hydraulic sinus lift first. For a thin membrane or a lesion, we consider the lateral approach from the start. If a sign of perforation is unclear or confirmed, we switch to the lateral approach that day and place the implant at the same time depending on initial stability. From the first surgery to the final prosthesis takes about 4–5 months or 6–7 months depending on the condition, and 7–8 months in total if the sinus lift is done first.

05 · Jawbone

Immediate implant after extraction

Four conditions for placing on the day of extraction

Immediate placement means putting the implant in on the day the tooth is pulled, to shorten the wait after extraction. Yeonhap Dental Clinic checks for removal of infection, fixation in 2–3 mm of bone below the socket, the distance to the sinus and nerve canal, and gum recession at the front teeth. If the conditions are not met, we wait at least 2 months for front teeth and 3 months for molars before placing.

06 · Jawbone

Complex implant cases

Planning bone, gum, lesions and bite together

Complex cases are treatments that plan the bone, gums, sinus lesions and bite together. Yeonhap Dental Clinic considers simultaneous bone grafting when cheek-side bone is under 2 mm, and a sinus lift when remaining bone in the upper molars is under 7 mm. For lower molars where 2 mm above the nerve canal cannot be kept with a standard length, we consider a 4–6 mm short implant, but we do not place one where the remaining height is under 5 mm. We also decide the order of gum reinforcement, lesion treatment and bite restoration.

Whole-mouth implants (full arch)

How many implants restore a whole jaw?

Whole-mouth implants restore the teeth and bite of one whole jaw together. Yeonhap Dental Clinic divides 12 artificial teeth, up to the 6th tooth, into three segments and supports them on at least 6 implants in the lower jaw and at least 7 in the upper jaw. If the bone in the lower molar area is under 5 mm or the upper front area is lacking, we consider All-on-X, and we also compare an implant-supported denture depending on cost, maintenance and your preference. The 7th tooth is added after a trial period if needed.

Full-arch implants (All-on-X)

How is it different from whole-mouth implants?

Yeonhap Dental Clinic's All-on-X fixes 12 artificial teeth as a single piece on 4 implants at the front of the lower jaw or 6 implants at positions 4, 5 and 6 on both sides of the upper jaw. If the bone allows, we first look at the three-segment fixed type, and choose based on placement limits, cost, maintenance and your preference. When the 4 lower-jaw or 6 upper-jaw implants meet a diameter of at least 4 mm, a length of at least 8.5 mm and an initial stability of at least 30 Ncm, and the connection design fits, a temporary tooth is attached within the same day to 1 week. Upper jaws that involve a sinus lift are excluded.

Implant-supported denture

Who can manage with two, and who cannot

Yeonhap Dental Clinic's implant denture (IARPD) is a method in which a partial denture is attached to a bridge on top of the implants. The design for a completely edentulous jaw is 2 canine implants in the lower jaw and 4 in the upper jaw, and the lower jaw takes about 5 months. For patients aged 65 or older who are partially edentulous, National Health Insurance coverage applies separately to the implants and the partial denture depending on the conditions. There is no snap-on retention part to replace, but relining the inside of the denture, adjusting the clasps and checking the screws are still needed.

Implant revision surgery

Three problems that call for revision surgery

Revision surgery is judged by dividing it into peri-implantitis, fracture or loosening, and aesthetic or position problems at the front teeth. Yeonhap Dental Clinic first checks whether the implant body can be kept, and for peri-implantitis we check bone loss, changes in the stability value (ISQ) and the response to treatment together. For a loose screw or a detached prosthesis, we consider re-tightening or re-cementing; where an implant has been removed, we allow 2–3 months of healing, confirm the cause, and place again.

Surgical planning for less discomfort

Four-step palate anesthesia · 200 rpm low-speed drill

Yeonhap Dental Clinic uses a rinse, ointment and an automated anesthesia device as the baseline, and when palate anesthesia is needed, adds pressure for a four-step process. A low-speed drill at around 200 rpm is cooled with water, and the implant is placed with a flapless or minimal-incision approach depending on the bone and gum condition. Discomfort may last until around days 2–3 after surgery, so we check recovery at 1 week and 1 month.

Implant side-effect risks and placement criteria

We prepare for each of six side effects

We explain the main side effects in six groups; their causes differ, so we prepare for each differently. The most common, peri-implantitis, is reported in about 22% of patients[25], and Yeonhap Dental Clinic reduces the risk by leaving 2 mm of cheek-side bone and designing a crown shape the toothbrush can reach (prosthesis emergence angle within 30 degrees)[30]. For altered sensation we keep 2 mm above the nerve canal, for sinusitis we treat it before surgery, and for front-tooth gum recession we reduce the risk through placement position and gap bone grafting.

If you have a systemic condition or take medication

It is not that you can't — there is just one more step in the order

Diabetes, antithrombotic drugs and osteoporosis drugs are not reasons you cannot have an implant; they are items for deciding the order at the first consultation. Yeonhap Dental Clinic checks the drug name, how it is administered, how long you have taken it and the extent of surgery, then decides with your prescribing doctor only on the medications that need adjusting. How to take your medicine on the day of surgery is explained according to the type of drug and your meal plan, and the principle is that no patient stops any drug on their own.

Depth, angle and prosthesis shape set at surgery

4 mm depth baseline · placement direction by site · a cleanable prosthesis

The difference shows up not on the day of placement but in the gum several years later. Yeonhap Dental Clinic uses about 4 mm from the gum surface to the platform as the baseline, sets the placement direction for each site, and makes the prosthesis with an emergence angle within 30 degrees and without a convex shape[30]. We refer to the association between shapes over 30 degrees or convex and peri-implantitis.

Lifespan and aftercare

About 96% 10-year survival, daily care and 6-month checkups

A 10-year survival of about 96% (93% when adjusted for dropouts) is the share not removed, and does not mean there was no inflammation or prosthesis repair[21]. Peri-implantitis was reported in about 22% of patients[25] and was lower in the regularly maintained group[28]. At Yeonhap Dental Clinic, you clean the prosthesis margin daily with a toothbrush and interdental brush, and we check every 6 months. Smokers have about twice the risk of failure[29], so we recommend quitting smoking for the first month after surgery.

16 · Timeline

Implant timeline

How long it takes depends on the site

From placement to the final prosthesis, we expect about 3 months in the lower jaw and 4–6 months in the upper jaw. If an implant cannot be placed on the day of extraction, a wait of at least 2 months for front teeth and 3 months for molars is added. For a sinus lift, it takes about 4–5 months from the first surgery if the condition is good, 6–7 months if staged adaptation is needed, and 7–8 months in total if the lift is done first and the implant placed later. Yeonhap Dental Clinic explains the expected schedule at the first consultation.

Implant cost

What determines it?

One non-covered implant costs MegaGen KRW 790,000, Dentis KRW 890,000, or Osstem BA KRW 990,000, including the fixture, a custom abutment, and the crown. Bone grafting and sinus lift are charged separately only when needed, and Yeonhap Dental Clinic gives an itemized estimate after a CT scan.

NHI-covered implants (age 65+)

Where do you use the two covered implants?

Currently, patients aged 65 or older who are partially edentulous are covered for 2 implants per lifetime, with a patient copayment of 30% under National Health Insurance, 10% for Medical Aid Type 1 and 20% for Type 2. Bone grafting and sinus lifts are not covered. Expansion of the 2-implant coverage to completely edentulous patients is scheduled for January 2027. Yeonhap Dental Clinic decides the sites after looking at your remaining teeth, bite and partial denture plan.

When Implants Are Recommended

Implant treatment may be considered in the following situations.

When a tooth must be extracted due to severe decay or gum disease
When a tooth is suddenly lost from trauma or an accident
When existing dentures no longer fit well, causing difficulty chewing or discomfort
When natural teeth are lost due to aging and chewing function needs to be restored

Custom Abutment

Stock vs Custom Abutment

Stock and custom abutments differ in form and fabrication. The choice is made after considering gum contour, bite, and the prosthetic plan.

Stock Abutment
A standardized component whose use is reviewed with the oral condition and prosthetic plan in mind.
Custom Abutment
A fabrication approach planned around tooth and gum contours and bite; its use is decided from diagnostic findings and the prosthetic plan.
