Dental implant costs and coverage in South Surrey: what to ask
dentalimplants
Wondering how implant costs and coverage work? Here are the questions to ask about plans, direct billing and CDCP before you start.
Cost is often the biggest question before an implant. Understanding how coverage works helps you plan with confidence.
Why costs vary
Implant treatment is tailored to each person. Your plan may include a scan, placement, healing time, and a final crown, and each case differs. That is why costs are explained to you after your exam and before treatment begins.
Questions to ask your dentist
- What is included in the quoted cost, and what is separate?
- Will you submit a predetermination to my insurer?
- Is direct billing available for my plan?
- How are stages and timing spread out?
Private insurance and CDCP
Direct billing is available for most private plans, and direct billing to Sun Life through CDCP. Coverage for implants, crowns and root canals can differ, so check before you book. These resources can help:
