Dental implants in Florida: cash price vs what Medicaid pays
Florida combines an emergency-only adult Medicaid classification with a published 173-code fee schedule (effective 2026-01-01) that carries no line for D6010, D6056, D6058 or D6190, so no official implant reimbursement figure exists for this state. Its dentist Medicaid-acceptance rate (25.6%) is the second-lowest among the 16 large states we track, and 30 of its 67 counties (45%) carry a dental-desert flag. Cash prices span $3,500 in Jacksonville to $4,500 in Naples on a $4,515 average.
Florida's official Medicaid dental fee schedule (173 codes, effective 2026-01-01) has no line for D6010, D6056, D6058 or D6190: the program does not price implant placement, the abutment or the implant crown at all.
Adult Medicaid dental in Florida (emergency-only adult dental benefit): For 2024, adult dental coverage under Medicaid in Florida is largely restricted to emergency services for pain relief and infection control only.
Tracked city averages, single implant: Jacksonville $3,500 / St. Petersburg $3,600 / Tampa $3,700 / Orlando $3,800 / Miami $4,000 / Fort Lauderdale $4,200 / Naples $4,500.
