Dental implant cost in Hawaii

Your dental implant cost in Hawaii can be planned one stage at a time. Service prices across the state are about 3% above the US average. Med-QUEST, the state Medicaid health plan, started covering adult dental care on January 1, 2023, if you use it. This limited plan includes preventative and restorative care, helping fix teeth and providing some dentures. Adults have no stated yearly dollar cap. Implants aren't listed as a covered service. You should ask the plan what payment it will make because its rules don't list implants. You can still receive care without a plan benefit on a self-pay basis and pay the bill yourself.

Dental school clinics are an option many people look at for lower-cost care. The University of Hawaii at Manoa Dental Hygiene Clinic is one local choice. They haven’t confirmed whether they provide implant care, so you should call them and ask first. According to the clinic, full dental service isn't available, and it only offers dental hygiene procedures. Full care isn't available at the clinic (their work is limited to hygiene), so asking what they can do makes sense. We suggest checking your dentist's license status with the Board of Dentistry before surgery. You can use the state board's online license lookup tool.
