Dental Implants in
Bogotá, Colombia.
From $1,100.
The same Zimmer Biomet titanium implants used in US university dental programs placed in Bogotá at a fraction of the cost. Single implants, multiple implants, and complex cases with bone grafting. Every case reviewed personally by Dr. González before you travel.
WHAT IS A DENTAL IMPLANT
Not a denture. Not a bridge.
A permanent tooth root.
A dental implant is a titanium post that goes directly into the jawbone and fuses with it over time. Once integrated, it acts as a permanent root stable, fixed, and indistinguishable from a natural tooth in function. You chew with it, brush it, and forget it's there.
It's the closest thing dentistry has to replacing a tooth rather than compensating for a missing one. Bridges require grinding down adjacent healthy teeth. Dentures sit on top of the gum and move. Implants do neither.
The procedure has three components. Understanding what each one is makes it easier to read a quote and know what you're actually comparing between clinics.
The implant post
A titanium screw placed surgically into the jawbone. This is the part that fuses with the bone over 3 to 6 months. Xerenova uses Zimmer Biomet — the same brand used in US university dental programs. Verifiable at zimmerbiomet.com.
The abutment
A connector piece that attaches to the top of the implant post and holds the crown in place. Placed after the implant has fully integrated with the bone.
The crown
The visible tooth-shaped cap on top. Xerenova uses zirconia — a ceramic material that matches natural tooth color, has no metal margin at the gumline, and is fabricated with Exocad CAD/CAM for a precise digital fit.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Three situations where
an implant is the right answer.
Most patients arrive knowing they're missing a tooth. What they're not always sure of is whether an implant is the right solution for their specific situation. These are the most common cases.
One missing tooth
A single implant with a zirconia crown is the most conservative solution. It preserves the adjacent teeth — no grinding, no involvement of teeth that don't need treatment. The implant fills the gap permanently.
Several missing teeth
Multiple individual implants or an implant-supported bridge depending on where the gaps are. For patients missing most or all teeth, All-on-4 is usually the better clinical and financial path. Dr. González will tell you which applies to your case.
A tooth too damaged to save
When a tooth is cracked, decayed, or failing to the point that it can't be restored with a crown, extraction followed by an implant is often the right sequence. The implant goes in after the extraction site heals — sometimes months later.
THE PROCESS
How it works at Xerenova.
Step by step.
Every implant case at Xerenova follows the same protocol. The sequence doesn't change what changes is the timeline depending on whether bone grafting is needed first.
Remote case review
You send your panoramic X-ray, photos, and CBCT scan via WhatsApp or email. Dr. González reviews everything personally and responds within 24 hours with a written treatment plan and fixed pricing.
Before you book a flight.
Implant placement
First appointment in Bogotá. The titanium post is placed surgically into the jawbone under local anesthesia. The procedure typically takes 45 to 90 minutes. Most patients return to normal activity the following day.
Trip 1: 3 to 5 days in Bogotá.
Osseointegration
The implant fuses with the bone. This happens at home — you go back to your normal life while the implant integrates. The healing period is typically 3 to 6 months. Dr. González and the team are available via WhatsApp throughout.
Done at home. No extra trips.
Crown placement
Second trip to Bogotá. The abutment and zirconia crown are placed. The crown is fabricated with Exocad digital design — you see the result before it's placed. This appointment is typically 2 to 3 hours.
Trip 2: 2 to 3 days in Bogotá.
BONE GRAFTING
Some implant cases need bone
grafting first. Here's what that means.
When a tooth is lost, the jawbone that used to support it starts to reabsorb. This is a natural process that begins within months of extraction and continues over time. The result is that some patients who come for an implant don't have enough bone volume at the implant site to support it directly.
Bone grafting adds volume back to the jaw so the implant has something solid to fuse with. It's not a complication it's a preparation step, and it's common in patients who lost teeth several years ago.
Whether you need it is determined by the CBCT 3D scan that Dr. González requires before any treatment plan is issued. You'll know before you travel not after you land in Bogotá.
What bone grafting means for your timeline
If grafting is needed, the sequence changes slightly. The graft is placed first, usually during your first trip to Bogotá. Then a healing period of 3 to 6 months follows before the implant can be placed. This means two treatment trips instead of one — but the total cost and the final result are the same.
TECHNOLOGY
Verifiable materials.
Every implant, every crown.
The implant brand, the crown material, and the imaging technology Xerenova uses are all publicly documented. You can verify each one before you book anything.
Zimmer Biomet Implants
NYSE-listed. The same implant brand used in US university dental programs and specialist clinics. Titanium fixtures with decades of published clinical data and full manufacturer traceability.
Exocad CAD/CAM Crowns
Digital crown design software used in over 100 countries. The zirconia crown is designed digitally and milled to a precise fit. You see the result before any procedure begins — no surprises when the crown is placed.
CBCT 3D Imaging
Cone beam computed tomography — the imaging standard for implant planning. Shows bone volume, nerve position, and anatomical detail that a flat X-ray cannot. Integrated with Roxtro since 2005 — 20 years of digital diagnostic workflow.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What patients ask before
booking their implant in Bogotá.
Yes. The titanium post Xerenova places in Bogotá is manufactured by Zimmer Biomet — the same company, the same product line, the same FDA-cleared material composition as what's placed in US clinics and university dental programs. The implant doesn't change quality based on where it's placed. What varies is the cost structure around the procedure, not the fixture itself.
Two trips minimum. The first for surgical placement (3 to 5 days), then a healing period of 3 to 6 months at home, then the second trip for the crown placement (2 to 3 days). If bone grafting is needed, there's a third trip — graft first, then implant after healing, then crown. Dr. González gives you the exact sequence and timeline before you travel.
Yes. The CBCT 3D scan that Dr. González requires before any treatment plan is issued shows bone volume, bone density, and nerve position at the implant site. If grafting is needed, it will be in your treatment plan and priced before you book your flight — not discovered after you arrive in Bogotá.
The written guarantee covers the implant and the prosthetic work performed. It is signed before treatment begins — not after. The document is in English so your home dentist can review it. If something needs attention after you return, the team coordinates directly with your local provider using the clinical documentation provided at the end of your treatment.
Often yes. Implants combined with crowns, veneers, or cleanings in the same trip is common. The sequencing depends on your specific case — some treatments need to happen in a specific order. Dr. González designs the treatment sequence and gives you a day-by-day schedule so you know exactly how to plan your trip before you book your flights.
GET STARTED
What Dr. González needs
to evaluate your implant case.
Before any treatment is discussed or priced, Dr. González reviews your clinical materials personally. This is what he needs to give you a real answer.
Panoramic X-ray
A full radiograph of upper and lower teeth. Required. Your local dentist can take one for around $50 if you don't have a recent one.
Extraoral and intraoral photos
Front and side face photos plus tooth photos from the front, sides, and biting position. You can take these yourself with a phone.
Upper and lower CT scan
A CBCT 3D scan of both arches. Required for all implant cases. This is what shows bone volume and determines whether grafting is needed before treatment.
Intraoral scan (optional)
Digital scan of your teeth. Optional — if you don't have one, it can be done at the clinic in Bogotá on your first appointment.
