Since the beginning of 2026, the cost of dental services in Kazakhstan has continued to rise, and dental implants have become a serious financial burden for many people, Orda.kz reports, citing Finprom analysts.
The analysts studied market data and found that prices for prosthetics and dental implants vary significantly depending on the region, the clinic and the materials used. At the same time, the market in Almaty and Astana was found to be more transparent because of stronger competition, while in a number of regions clinics provided price lists only on individual request.
The analysts added that dental implantation requires significant spending and time, and that the final cost of treatment can reach several million tenge.
The spread in prices for the same services across different clinics depends on many factors — the doctor’s qualifications, the choice of prosthetic and implantation methods, and the cost of imported materials and their country of origin.
Among prosthetic services, metal-ceramic crowns remained the most affordable, costing from 46,000 to 180,000 tenge. Prices for zirconia crowns started at 95,000 tenge and went up to 220,000 tenge. The most expensive procedure, the analysts said, was implantation using the All-on-4 method. Restoring one jaw this way cost from 790,000 to 2.5 million tenge, while treatment for two jaws ranged from 1.6 million to 5 million tenge.
In January-March 2026, dental implant prices rose by 10.3% year on year. In the Almaty region, the increase reached 28.3%, while in the Aktobe region it remained minimal. Other dental services also became more expensive: treatment of caries rose by 17.7%, tooth extraction by 14.7%, and prosthetics by 13%.
The analysts also recorded a rise in household spending on dentistry. In 2025, the volume of paid dental services reached 224.7 billion tenge, which was 27.2% more than a year earlier.
