Choice in the CBD

In the listings we reviewed on 12 October 2026, Sandton had the largest cluster of practices advertising dental implant treatment in the metro. For someone considering an implant, that usually means more than one option within a short distance of home or work. It does not tell you which practice suits you, and we do not rank or recommend any.

Because treatment runs over several months, the practice you choose is a practice you will visit many times. Practical things count: appointment times that fit around work, parking or Gautrain access, and how easy it is to reach the practice between visits if you have a question.

Comparing two Sandton treatment plans

If you have assessments at two practices, ask each for a written, itemised treatment plan. Two plans for the same tooth can look different for good reasons: one may include a bone graft that the other does not, one may use a 3D scan and surgical guide, and one may quote the crown separately. Line the plans up stage by stage before comparing totals.

Where plans differ on a clinical point, such as whether a graft is needed, ask each practitioner to explain their reasoning. That is a normal question, and the answer helps you decide.

  • Are imaging, the implant, the abutment and the crown all listed?
  • Is any grafting included, or quoted as a possible extra?
  • What temporary tooth is provided during healing?
  • How many appointments are planned, and over how long?

What moves the cost of a Sandton implant

The factors are the same as anywhere: the number of implants, any extractions or grafting, the imaging, the type and material of the final tooth, laboratory work, sedation, and what your medical aid funds. We do not publish prices for Sandton or anywhere else. The cost factors guide explains each one.

The next step is an assessment by a dentist

Only a dentist who examines you, with X-rays or a scan, can say whether an implant is suitable and what it would involve. Start with your own dentist. If you do not have one, read what an implant assessment covers and what to take with you.
