How Much Do Dental Implants Cost in Burbank, CA?
By Dr. Mahvash Emami, DDS · 5 min read · Updated August 7, 2026
The direct answer: a single dental implant in Burbank typically costs $3,500 to $6,000 when every stage is included — and the spread has less to do with implant quality than with how many separate offices and fees sit between you and a finished tooth.
What the price actually covers
A finished implant is four things: the consultation and 3D imaging, the titanium post placed in the bone, the abutment connecting post to tooth, and the crown on top. An advertised price covering only the post is technically honest and practically misleading — it's roughly a third of what you'll pay by the end.
Why Burbank runs high
Burbank spans a wide range — value clinics advertising aggressive introductory pricing alongside boutique cosmetic practices. The advertised low numbers are frequently post-only quotes, while the premium practices bundle everything but price accordingly. Patients comparing the two rarely realize they're comparing different products.
The three questions that make quotes comparable
- Does this include imaging, the abutment, and the crown? If not, ask for the all-in figure.
- Who places the implant, and who restores it? Two doctors means two fee schedules, two schedules to coordinate, and two people who can each point at the other if something goes wrong.
- Will you put the complete number in writing before I commit? Any good office says yes without hesitating.
The Sunland comparison
About 20 minutes via the 210 or Sunland Blvd from Burbank, Sunland Dental Care charges $2,000 for a complete single implant — consultation, 3D imaging, guided placement, and the final crown, one fixed price in writing. It's possible because Dr. Mahvash Emami, DDS performs every stage herself in one office rather than routing you through a referral chain, and because 40 years and thousands of implants make the process efficient.
That's not an argument that cheaper is automatically better — read how implant pricing works generally and judge any quote, including ours, by what it includes and who performs it. See also our page for Burbank patients and full pricing.
Related questions
- How much is a single dental implant in Burbank?
- Quotes in the Burbank area commonly land between $3,500 and $6,000 for a single implant once the surgical placement, abutment, and crown are all counted. Sunland Dental Care, About 20 minutes via the 210 or Sunland Blvd away, offers a complete single implant — consultation, 3D imaging, guided surgery, and crown — for $2,000 fixed.
- Why do implant quotes vary so much?
- Because they often measure different things. Some quote only the titanium post; some include the crown; some add imaging and the abutment later. Until you know what a number includes and who performs each stage, two quotes aren't comparable.
- Is it worth traveling outside Burbank for a dental implant?
- For a routine cleaning, no. For an implant — a multi-stage treatment costing thousands — a twenty-minute drive that consolidates surgery and restoration under one dentist at a published price is worth an afternoon for most patients.
