By Toothcation editorial ·

Prices as checked in October 2026. Live prices: Zirconia crown, Puerto Vallarta, All-on-4, one arch, Puerto Vallarta, Crown on implant, Puerto Vallarta.

Toothcation shows a median clinic figure of $522 for a zirconia crown, $9,587 for All-on-4 for an arch, $937 for a crown on an implant, and $521 for a porcelain veneer in Puerto Vallarta. The figures have different clinic counts, so read each median with its count below. Toothcation’s Puerto Vallarta clinic page lists clinics with published prices and the dates those prices were checked. Puerto Vallarta is a city in Jalisco, Mexico.

How to read the figures

Each clinic counts once, at the median of its own prices for a procedure. The city median is the midpoint of those clinic figures, rather than a quote for your care. Toothcation flags a price that looks unusually high or low for the procedure and leaves it out of medians and ranges without deleting it.

Every clinic price on Toothcation comes from a clinic’s own website, a dentist’s own Doctoralia profile, or a price the clinic sent Toothcation directly, with the date it was checked. Dentists set the prices on their own Doctoralia profiles. The methodology page explains how Toothcation collects, dates and flags prices and turns them into medians. Where a US comparison appears, its source and year are on the price page. Ask what a written quote includes before comparing it with a median.

Zirconia crowns

The Puerto Vallarta zirconia crown median is $522, based on 8 clinics. The displayed range is $257 to $650, and the raw minimum of $257 is a “from” price. These prices were checked October 2026. The US reference shown for this procedure is $1,400.

The Puerto Vallarta zirconia crown page gives the local median, range and clinic count. The zirconia crown price page places city medians beside the US reference range. Zirconia crowns can withstand heavier forces than other types of ceramic crowns 1. A dental crown usually takes two appointments when a dental lab makes it 1. For a description of crown materials and placement, see the dental crowns guide. Ask whether the clinic’s written quote matches the procedure named on the price page.

All-on-4 for an arch

The All-on-4 median is $9,587 across 5 clinics, with a displayed range of $7,076 to $11,000. The prices were checked October 2026. Against that median, the US reference range is $15,000 to $25,000. The range of local clinic figures is not a fixed quote.

All-on-4 replaces an entire arch of missing teeth using four dental implants and is a type of fixed implant denture 2. A fixed implant denture cannot be removed at home; a dentist can remove it for maintenance when necessary 2. Implants generally take about three to six months to integrate with the jawbone, and the patient wears a healing denture while waiting 2.

The Puerto Vallarta All-on-4 page shows its local figures, while the All-on-4 price page compares city medians with the US reference. Toothcation’s All-on-4 guide gives an overview of the treatment. Ask the clinic to name each proposed stage in its written quote.

Crowns on implants

Only 3 clinics stand behind the Puerto Vallarta crown-on-implant median of $937. The displayed range is $617 to $1,435, checked October 2026. These Puerto Vallarta figures have no US reference to place beside the median.

A dental implant replaces a missing tooth root 3. A crown can cover a dental implant 4. There has to be enough jawbone to support an implant, and a bone graft can build up areas with bone loss 3. It takes three to nine months for jawbone to fuse around an implant 3.

The Puerto Vallarta crown-on-implant page shows the local prices, median, range and clinic count. The crown-on-implant price page presents city medians beside a US reference range where enough clinics have prices. See the dental implants guide for Toothcation’s explanation of the post and crown. Ask the clinic to identify the crown and every other proposed item separately in its quote.

Porcelain veneers

The median for a porcelain veneer is $521 from 6 clinics. The displayed range is $187 to $650. Its raw minimum of $187 is a “from” price. These prices were checked October 2026, and the US reference range is $900 to $2,500.

A porcelain veneer covers the front surface of a tooth, while a crown covers the whole tooth 5. Veneer treatment is not reversible because tooth enamel is removed 6. A veneer may chip, crack, wear down or loosen over time and need re-bonding, repair or replacement 6.

The Puerto Vallarta porcelain veneer page gives the local figures. The porcelain veneer price page places city medians next to the US reference range, and the veneers guide describes the treatment. Ask for a written quote that names the proposed procedure and gives its price.
