“Is there a link between diabetes and getting dental implants? It sounds quite like an association of sugar and cavities!
If you are diabetic, you know that living as a diabetic is walking a tightrope with blood sugars, diet, medications, doctor visits, and one extra gulab jamun that ruined your fasting sugar, but what if I told you balancing a beautiful smile is much simpler?
Here at Partha Dental, we have helped thousands of our patients (including diabetics) bring back their smile, with a safe and reliable procedure for dental implants.
And…, before you ask – we did say “bring your smile back” (not “no sweets forever”). That can be left to your diabetologist!
Can I Have a Dental Implant if I am a Diabetic?
Short answer – sure – Absolutely!
Long answer – yes, guess what – with a few precautions.
While diabetes generally slows healing time and increases the chance of infection – in modern dentistry the advancement of contemporary dental implant treatment procedures, better sterilization methods, and patient specific treatment plans by all means, is really possible and very effective for diabetic patients!
At Partha Dental, we have seen plenty of Type-2 diabetic patients walk into our clinic hiding their smiles and walk out flaunting their smiles like a toothpaste commercial!!
Dental Implants Diabetes Type 2 – What You Need to Know
If you have Type 2 diabetes, there is no need to panic. You are not automatically disqualified from having implants. The question that always comes to mind is: How well is your sugar under control?
Our implant specialists will look at:
- Your HbA1c levels – i.e., the “report card” of your sugar control.
- Your ability to heal.
- Your bone health.
If it’s all good, we will safely do dental implants for diabetes type 2.
Why Are Dental Implants Better Than Dentures For Diabetics
Dentures are similar to those inexpensive sandals you buy at a street vendor, they work okay for a while, then they slip, they wobble, and they don’t last. Dental implants, on the other hand, are like a nice pair of fitted sneakers–stable, built to last, and really comfortable.
For anyone with diabetes, implants also help you:
- Better chew your food (thus avoiding complaints from your digestive tract).
- Avoid gum irritations from loose dentures.
- Preserve gum health (no saggy cheeks, anymore).
It is like having a backstage pass to a better smile.
All-on-4 Dental Implants for Diabetics – A Top Discovery
If you’ve lost most or all of your teeth you do not need each individual missing tooth to be an implant. Can you imagine the pain of costs involved?! Even Ambani would say, “Arrey yaar, too much.”
Instead, what the All-on-4 dental implants for diabetics technique does, is let us put in only four implants in your jaw, and support a complete set of teeth. It’s fast, it’s efficient, and it costs less.
And the bonus, diabetics take less time to heal, and have fewer surgeries, so the All-on-4 is like the express train to a new full smile.

Now for the big question: what is the cost of dental implants if you are diabetic?
At Partha Dental, we do not believe in “Diabetic Tax” – the extra fees just because your pancreas is being cranky. The cost of implants depends on the:
- Number of implants you need.
- Whether it is a regular implant or an All-on-4 implant.
- If you need any other treatments such as bone grafting.
Type of Implant | Average Cost (per implant/tooth) | Notes |
Single Tooth Dental Implant | ₹25,000 – ₹45,000 | Best for replacing one missing tooth. |
Multiple Implants | ₹20,000 – ₹40,000 (per tooth) | Price reduces when placing more than one. |
All-on-4 Dental Implants | ₹1,20,000 – ₹2,50,000 (per jaw) | Full arch of teeth fixed on 4 implants. |
All-on-6 / All-on-8 Dental Implants | ₹2,00,000 – ₹3,50,000 (per jaw) | Extra stability for patients with lower bone density. |
Zygomatic / Pterygoid Implants | ₹2,50,000 – ₹4,00,000 (per jaw) | Advanced cases where the jawbone is weak. |
Bone Grafting (if required) | ₹15,000 – ₹40,000 | Additional if jawbone needs strengthening |
Diabetic Implant | Cost (customized package) | Similar to standard implants depends on medical condition & reports |
We also have payment plans such as EMIs because your smile should be brighter than your credit card statement.
Think of it this way: an implant is just like a fixed deposit. In this case, you will start smiling confidently the next day instead of waiting an additional 10 years for your investment to return dividends.
