Dental Implant Cost by Province in Canada (2026)
A complete single dental implant in Canada costs $3,000–$6,100 CAD depending on the province. Manitoba is the least expensive ($3,000–$4,500 estimate); Newfoundland and Labrador is the most expensive ($3,600–$6,100 estimate). Ontario has the only fully published official price: $4,165 minimum (ODA 2026). Most other provinces are modelled estimates — clearly flagged in our open dataset.

Why most provinces are estimates
Ontario's Ontario Dental Association (ODA) publishes a detailed Suggested Fee Guide each year, including per-code fees for implant fixtures (code 7610), abutments (code 7640) and implant-retained crowns (code 27211). This allows a precise minimum calculation: $1,375 + $575 + $1,099 + $1,116 lab = $4,165.
For all other provinces:
- Manitoba: The MDA Suggested Fee Guide 2026 is not publicly available. Figures are modelled from adjacent provincial guides and clinic pricing data, and are flagged as estimates.
- Saskatchewan: The CDSS Abbreviated Fee Guide does not publish implant-specific codes. Modelled estimate.
- Quebec: The ACDQ Guide des tarifs (2025) is partially accessible but does not include individual implant component codes. Modelled estimate.
- British Columbia: The BCDA Suggested Fee Guide 2026 is publicly available but does not include implant fixtures specifically. Modelled from BC clinic pricing and neighbouring data.
- Atlantic provinces (NS, NB, PE, NL): Guides are publicly accessible for most routine procedures but implant pricing is not standardized in these guides. Modelled estimates.
- Alberta: ADA guide is publicly available for core procedures; implant component codes are available but require membership access for current amounts. Modelled from available data.

What the price includes (and what it doesn't)
The per-province figures on this page cover a standard complete single implant:
- Titanium fixture (surgically placed in jawbone)
- Abutment connector
- Ceramic crown (including lab fee)
Not included in these figures:
- Bone graft ($500–$3,000+ per site, market estimate 2026) — needed if bone volume is insufficient
- Sinus lift ($1,500–$3,500+, market estimate 2026)
- CBCT scan ($300–$600, market estimate 2026)
- Specialist fee differential if oral surgeon or periodontist performs surgery
- Consultation or diagnostic fees
CDCP: The Canadian Dental Care Plan does not cover dental implants at any income level. This is an absolute exclusion.
Province-by-province notes
Manitoba ($3,000–$4,500): Consistently cited in Canadian comparison sources as one of the lowest-cost provinces for implants. The MDA guide is not public, so the range is modelled. Winnipeg practices tend to have lower overhead than Toronto or Vancouver.
Ontario ($4,165–$5,000): The only province with a fully published official code-level price. The ODA 2026 guide sets the floor at $4,165; most Toronto and suburban practices bill $4,500–$5,000 for a complete implant.
British Columbia ($3,000–$5,500): A wide range reflects significant Vancouver urban/rural variation. Some Lower Mainland practices compete aggressively on implant pricing; specialist clinics in Vancouver run toward the high end.
Quebec ($3,400–$5,400): The ACDQ guide is partially accessible. Montreal clinics offering implant packages often advertise toward the lower end of this range. French-language practices outside Montreal may be lower still.
Newfoundland and Labrador ($3,600–$6,100): The highest estimated range in our dataset. Fewer specialist practices, higher transportation and overhead costs in St. John's and rural areas, and a smaller competitive market contribute to the elevated range.
