Why doesn't the clinic provide prices without an evaluation?

The clinic does not give prices without an assessment because the value of a treatment depends on what your mouth needs, and that can only be seen with an examination and images. During the virtual consultation, you'll receive an estimated price. During the in-person evaluation, which includes a CT scan and 3D imaging, you'll receive an exact price.

Every day, the clinic receives messages asking about the cost of dental implants or smile makeovers. It's an understandable question: you want to know if the treatment fits your budget before planning a trip. Here's how the price is calculated and what you'll receive at each step.

Why does each case have a different price?

Two people may request an implant and require very different treatments. These are the factors that most significantly influence the price:

• How many teeth need to be treated? Replacing a single tooth costs differently than rehabilitating an entire dental arch.
• The condition of the bone and gums. If there is insufficient bone, a bone graft or sinus lift may be necessary before the implant. If the gums are inflamed, they are treated first.
• The appropriate treatment. A gap can be filled with a single implant or a bridge. A smile can be enhanced with porcelain or resin veneers. Each option has its own value.
• The materials. A zirconium, lithium disilicate, or metal-ceramic crown has different costs.
• The implant brand. The clinic works with Straumann, Neodent and Bicon, and each system has its own value.

A figure given without seeing your case could be far from what you really need. The clinic prefers to give you a more accurate estimate.

What do you receive in the virtual consultation?

The first step is a virtual consultation if you live outside of Barranquilla. It's conducted via Google Meet, costs USD 70, and can be done in Spanish or English.

In the consultation:

• The dentist listens to what bothers you and what you want to change.
• Review your photographs and x-rays.
• It explains the alternatives that apply to your case.
• It gives you an estimated budget.

To make the most of it, have photos of your smile and teeth ready (the clinic prepared a Guide to taking photos with your cell phone), any recent x-rays or CT scans you have, a list of your medications, and anything other dentists have suggested to you.

You can schedule it on the website of virtual consultation.

What do you receive in the in-person assessment?

When you arrive at the clinic, the first step is the diagnosis. At the clinic's radiology center, a CT scan is taken, and a 3D intraoral scanner creates a digital model of your mouth. The specialist reviews these images, examines you, and works with you to develop a treatment plan. Once you have this plan, you receive an exact quote.

Why does the exact budget depend on the images?

The photographs show the surface. The CT scan shows what's invisible: how much bone there is, where the nerve passes through, where the maxillary sinus is located, and the condition of the roots. This information confirms whether the estimated treatment is still appropriate or if something else, such as a bone graft, is needed. The 3D scanner is used to plan the position of the implants or the design of the veneers with precise measurements.

If the images confirm what was seen in the virtual consultation, the exact price will be close to the estimate. If they show something different, the specialist will explain it to you before starting, and you can make your decision based on that information.

How much does treatment cost compared to the US?

The clinic does not publish prices, for the reasons explained above. If you want a reference for the US market, a study published by Dental Economics in February 2026 The study found a median of $4,000 for a complete implant (implant, abutment, and crown), based on a survey of 278 practices in six metropolitan areas.

That figure is a reference point and may vary depending on your city and your specific case. Once you have the clinic's quote, compare it to the one in your city on the same basis: implant brand, what's included, and how many stages it involves. Add travel expenses.
