Making Dental Implants
More Affordable for Coquitlam Patients
High-quality implant care should be within reach for everyone. We proudly accept most major insurance plans, including the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP), to make advanced treatment more accessible to our Coquitlam community.
Many related procedures, such as extractions, bone grafting, and restorations, may be partially or fully covered under your plan. Our experienced team provides clear cost estimates before treatment begins and handles coordination directly with your insurance provider so you can focus on your smile, not the paperwork.
Here’s how we help make implant treatment easier to manage:
- Acceptance of CDCP and most major insurance plans
- Transparent cost breakdowns and pre-approvals before treatment
- Direct coordination with your provider to maximize coverage
- Guidance on financing and payment options for out-of-pocket costs
If you have questions about your coverage or eligibility, our friendly front desk team is here to help you navigate every step.
“I am always anxious to sit at the dentist’s chair, but my first visit to Vitacare Dental Centre has calmed my nerves – starting from a friendly and welcoming vibe at reception, to Ellie who took good pictures of my teeth, and ultimately with Dr. Lee who peeked at every nook and cranny of my mouth and, most especially, who patiently listened to all my concerns. I am elated that I have switched over to this dental office”

A Detailed View of Implant Treatment
Dental implants are placed directly into the jaw. Over the course of three to six months, the implants fuse with the jaw in a process called osseointegration. Once this fusion is complete, the implants have the same stability as natural tooth roots and can provide excellent support for crowns, bridges, or dentures.
What to Expect During
Your Recovery
Like any dental surgery, patients can expect to experience some discomfort and swelling after receiving dental implants. Most patients are able to alleviate these side effects with over-the-counter anti-inflammatories. You will receive detailed post-operative instructions. In general, you should plan to:
Eat Soft Foods
We recommend a soft-food diet, such as smoothies, soups, yogurt, and scrambled eggs, after surgery. This allows the treatment area to heal properly. Patients should avoid very hot food or drinks and eat meals that can be easily chewed.
Cleaning
Food particles can easily become trapped in the gums during the healing period. Patients should rinse their mouths thoroughly after every meal. Gently brush around the treatment site with a soft-bristled toothbrush at least twice a day.
Rest
Plan to rest at home for one to three days after the procedure. Patients can usually return to work after the initial rest period, but should avoid strenuous activity until cleared by the dentist. We'll monitor your progress during follow-up visits.
FAQ About Dental Implants
Q. Is dental implant placement painful?
A. No. Your dentist will thoroughly numb the area before your treatment begins. You may feel a little pressure, but you should not feel pain during dental implant placement. If at any point you feel discomfort, please let your dental team know so we can make adjustments to ensure you are completely comfortable during your procedure.
Q. I have been told I do not qualify for dental implants. Can you still help?
A. If you do not initially qualify for dental implants due to issues relating to your oral health, we can provide comprehensive dentistry at our Coquitlam office to become a candidate. During your initial consultation, your dentist will perform a complete evaluation to determine if you can become a candidate by undergoing preliminary treatments.
Q. How do I care for dental implants?
A. One of the many benefits of dental implants is that you treat them just as you would natural teeth. Be sure to brush and floss at least twice a day with a soft-bristled brush and nonabrasive toothpaste. Do not use your teeth to open packages or bite your nails.
Q. How long do dental implants last?
A. Dental implants are made of durable titanium and are designed to last a lifetime. However, your dental crown, bridge, or denture will wear over time with use and will eventually need to be replaced. With proper dental care and maintenance, your restoration can last for 15 years or more. Be sure to maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing twice a day. Don't forget regular exams and cleanings at our Coquitlam dentistry practice.
Q. How much do implants cost?
A. The cost of dental implants varies widely depending on your specific treatment plan. A patient receiving a single implant-supported crown without any preparatory procedures can expect to pay much less than a patient receiving bone grafting and an implant-supported denture. Your dentist will be able to provide a detailed treatment estimate once they have reviewed your needs during a consultation.
