Dental Implants for Beaverton Patients — Three Doctors, One Building, 12 Minutes East of Cedar Hills

Most Beaverton patients I see for an implant consult ask the same logistics question first: “How many offices is this going to involve?” The honest answer in Beaverton proper is usually three — your general dentist for planning, an oral surgeon (often near Murray Blvd or Sunset Hwy) for placement, and back to the general dentist months later for the crown. We built the workflow differently here on Shaleen Street, 12 minutes east of Cedar Hills via Hwy 26: three doctors place implants here — Dr. Ostovar (FAGD, 19 years on this corner), Dr. Gvozden (Tufts surgical training, 30+ years), and Dr. Youngblood (OHSU DMD). Surgical and restorative work runs on the same chart, in the same building, with no records-fax delays.

The drive from Beaverton sounds longer than it is. From Cedar Hills Crossing or the Beaverton Transit Center, it’s a straight shot east on Hwy 26 to the Cornell Road exit, then 5 minutes north. From Nike WHQ via Murray Blvd, 12-15 minutes off-peak. Most Beaverton patients tell us the time saved by consolidating to one office wipes out the extra 8 minutes vs a Murray Blvd general dentist.

Why Beaverton Patients Choose East Wind for Implants

The Three-Doctor Implant Team — Surgical + Restorative in One Building

Most Beaverton general dental practices on Murray Blvd, Cedar Hills Blvd, or near the Beaverton Town Square split implant cases between offices. Planning happens at the general dentist; surgery gets referred to an oral surgeon (often a 15-20 minute drive from Beaverton toward Portland or Tigard); the crown comes back months later. We do it differently:

• Dr. Jovan Gvozden — Surgical phase for the heavier cases. Tufts University surgical training, 30+ years experience. Handles ridge augmentation, socket preservation grafts, sinus lifts, and the implant placement itself using Carestream CBCT-guided drill protocols.
• Dr. Merat Ostovar, DMD, FAGD — Places implants and handles the restorative phase. Designs the abutment, picks the crown material (BruxZir zirconia for posterior, IPS e.max layered porcelain for the highly-aesthetic anterior zone), takes the iTero digital impression, and seats the final crown. Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry — held by under 7% of general dentists.
• Dr. Derek Youngblood, DMD — OHSU graduate. Places implants alongside his general and restorative caseload, adding appointment availability for straightforward single-tooth cases.

The handoff between phases is internal. The surgeon who placed the implant sits 15 feet from the dentist designing the crown that loads it. The mechanical coordination matters more than people realize.

In-House 3D CBCT Imaging

Every implant case at our office begins with a 3D Cone Beam CT scan — not a simple 2D panoramic X-ray. The International Congress of Oral Implantologists considers CBCT-guided planning the standard of care for predictable implant placement, since it maps jawbone density in three dimensions and reveals nerve pathways and sinus position before surgery begins. The result: safer surgery, better implant positioning, and more predictable outcomes.

Implants Start at $1,799

Dental implant placement at East Wind starts at $1,799 for the implant body. Full treatment costs depend on your specific situation:

Types of Dental Implants We Place

Single-Tooth Implant

Missing one tooth? A single implant replaces it without grinding down neighboring teeth (as a bridge requires). A titanium post integrates with your jawbone, then a custom porcelain crown is placed on top — matching the shape, shade, and size of your natural teeth.

Single-Tooth Implant Details →

Multiple-Tooth Implant Bridge

Missing two to four adjacent teeth? Two implants support a bridge of three or four teeth — so you do not need an individual implant for every missing tooth.

Multiple-Tooth Implants →

All-on-4 Full-Arch Implants

Missing all or most teeth in an arch? Four to six strategically placed implants support a full set of fixed, non-removable teeth. Many patients receive temporary teeth the same day as surgery.

All-on-4 Implants →

Implant-Supported Dentures

Want better denture stability at a lower cost than All-on-4? Two to four implants anchor a removable denture — no adhesive, no slipping, but removable for cleaning.

The Implant Process for Beaverton Patients

Step 1: Free Consultation with 3D Imaging

Dr. Ostovar examines your teeth, takes a 3D CBCT scan of your jaw, reviews your medical history, and presents a personalized treatment plan with cost estimate and insurance breakdown. This appointment takes 60–90 minutes. No charge.

Step 2: Preparatory Procedures (If Needed)

Some patients need bone grafting to rebuild jawbone volume or a sinus lift for upper back teeth. Dr. Ostovar performs these procedures in-house. Healing time: 3–4 months before implant placement.

Step 3: Implant Placement Surgery

Performed under local anesthesia with sedation options available (nitrous oxide, oral sedation, or IV sedation). The procedure takes 30–60 minutes per implant. Most patients describe the discomfort as less than expected — similar to a tooth extraction.

Step 4: Healing (3–6 Months)

Your jawbone fuses with the titanium implant through osseointegration. We monitor your progress at regular check-in appointments.

Step 5: Permanent Crown Placement

Dr. Ostovar places your custom porcelain crown — often using our CEREC same-day system to complete the restoration in a single appointment.

Which Beaverton dentists place dental implants?

Most general dentists with offices on Murray Blvd, Cedar Hills Blvd, or in the Nike WHQ corridor refer surgical implant placement out to a Beaverton or Portland oral surgeon — meaning two offices, two bills, and 4-6 months of coordination. East Wind Dental Care, 12 minutes east of Cedar Hills via Hwy 26, places implants in-house: Dr. Jovan Gvozden (Tufts surgical training) does the surgical phase, Dr. Merat Ostovar (FAGD) does the restorative crown work.

How much does a dental implant cost in Beaverton, OR?

Single tooth implants in the Beaverton area run $3,500-$5,500 in 2026 — that’s the post + abutment + final crown bundled. The titanium implant body alone starts at $1,799. All-on-4 full-arch ranges $20,000-$35,000 per arch. Bone graft (when CBCT shows insufficient ridge) adds $500-$2,500. Beaverton Nike and Intel employees often have Delta Dental or Cigna plans that cover 50% of placement plus 50% of the crown after the annual deductible.

Are All-on-4 implants done in Beaverton or referred to Hillsboro?

Most Beaverton general dental offices don’t do All-on-4 in-house — it’s a 2-3 hour surgical procedure that needs IV sedation, CBCT planning, and an oral surgeon comfortable with full-arch immediate-load protocols. East Wind in Hillsboro (12 minutes east of Cedar Hills via Hwy 26) handles All-on-4 entirely in-house with Dr. Gvozden placing the four-to-six implants and Dr. Ostovar designing the temporary fixed bridge that goes on the same day.

Can a Beaverton dentist do CT scans for implant planning in-office?

Some Beaverton dental offices have a Carestream or i-CAT CBCT machine; many don’t and refer the scan out to a separate imaging center, adding a week and ~$300-$500 to the planning phase. Our Hillsboro office (12 min east of Cedar Hills) does the CBCT in-house during the free consultation. The 3D scan reveals bone density, sinus position, and inferior alveolar nerve pathways before any drilling decision gets made.

Do Beaverton implant providers offer financing?

Most Beaverton dental offices accept CareCredit (0% for 6-24 months depending on promo), Sunbit (soft credit check), and some accept Cherry Health. East Wind offers all three plus our VIP Membership for uninsured patients (15% off all fees). For larger cases like All-on-4, we sometimes split the treatment plan into surgical + restorative phases that get financed separately to keep monthly payments manageable.

Is sedation included in the Beaverton implant procedure cost?

No — sedation is almost always quoted separately by Beaverton-area implant providers. Same at our Hillsboro office: nitrous oxide adds ~$75-$150, oral conscious sedation (Halcion) adds ~$250-$400, IV sedation runs ~$500-$800 depending on length. Most single-tooth placements take 30-60 minutes and patients do fine on local plus nitrous. For All-on-4 we recommend IV. Separating sedation lets patients who don’t need it skip the cost rather than have it baked into a higher implant fee.
