A genuinely local surgeon, and a genuinely different practice.
Most "local" claims on dental websites are a stretch. The Auburn connection here is real: Dr. Volland grew up here, left for dental school and the Navy, and came home to practice. Beyond the personal roots, the differences at Elite are structural: practice model, pricing, and scope.
A surgeon who actually knows Auburn
Thomas Jefferson High School, class of 2010, then Pacific Lutheran in Tacoma before dental school and the Navy. For Auburn-area patients, "local" here means something specific: your surgeon grew up in the same community you live in.
Published, all-inclusive full-arch pricing
One flat price per arch, surgery, IV sedation, same-day provisional, and the final zirconia bridge included, posted publicly. Most full-arch programs in the region do not publish pricing at all, and quotes generally follow a paid consultation.
The same surgeon at every visit
Many regional groups rotate providers, so the surgeon you meet may not be the one who operates. Elite is single-doctor: Dr. Volland performs your consultation, surgery, try-in, delivery, and every follow-up himself.
The full scope, including remote anchorage
Wisdom teeth, extractions, grafting, and sedation, plus zygomatic implants for severe upper-jaw bone loss that most regional practices refer out. A meaningful second-opinion option for patients told they "aren't candidates."
A complete set of teeth, planned around your anatomy.
Full-arch reconstruction replaces a full row of failing or missing teeth with a fixed, implant-supported bridge. Every implant is mapped from 3D imaging before the day of surgery.
The full surgical scope, available to Auburn patients.
From routine wisdom teeth to complex full-arch reconstruction, planned and performed by a board-certified specialist, close to home.
Wisdom Teeth Removal
Full-Arch Dental Implants
Single Dental Implants
IV Sedation & Anesthesia
The most-studied full-arch option, with 25+ years of data and 95%+ implant survival at 10 years. For most Auburn patients with adequate bone, All-on-4 is the appropriate starting recommendation, with alternatives evaluated from 3D imaging at consultation. Elite's published $15,000 per arch, all-inclusive, is typically well below quotes patients receive elsewhere in the region.
Six implants per arch instead of four, selected when biomechanics warrant additional support rather than as a premium tier. At Elite it is priced identically to All-on-4, so the recommendation is purely clinical. Many programs charge a premium for the additional implants; that markup does not exist here.
For patients with severe maxillary bone loss told they “aren’t candidates” without months of grafting. Longer implants anchored in the cheekbone rather than the resorbed upper jaw eliminate the grafting timeline. Zygomatic protocols require specific training and aren’t standard at most King or Pierce County OMS practices, making Elite a meaningful second opinion for Auburn patients seeking a different answer.
The term most Auburn-area patients use first, particularly older patients. It overlaps with All-on-4, All-on-X, and full-arch implants; the underlying procedure is identical, and the clinical evaluation is the same regardless of which term you researched.
The modern alternative to bridges and removable partials for one or several missing teeth. Auburn-area general dentists routinely refer single-implant placement to oral surgeons; Elite handles the surgical placement, with the restoration crown completed by your referring dentist. For patients without an established restorative dentist, we maintain working relationships with several South Sound restorative practices.
Broken teeth at the gumline, fractured or dilacerated roots, ankylosed teeth, teeth close to the inferior alveolar nerve, and anxious patients who need sedation, the cases general dentists refer out. Handled in a controlled surgical environment with proper instrumentation and IV sedation available. For Auburn-area dentists without an established OMS relationship, Elite welcomes referrals with prompt clinical communication.
The foundation procedures that make implants possible after bone loss. Socket preservation right after an extraction protects bone volume for a future implant; a sinus lift rebuilds height in the upper-back jaw where the sinus has expanded. Both are commonly done as part of a broader plan, with pricing and healing timelines given to you in writing at consultation.
Four visits over about twelve weeks.
The full-arch path from first consultation to final teeth, every step performed by Dr. Volland himself, about twenty minutes south of Auburn on WA-410.
Consultation & 3D imaging
Meet Dr. Volland, get a CBCT scan, and leave with a written treatment plan and itemized pricing, about twenty minutes south on WA-410, a corridor you’ve driven since high school.
Placement & same-day teeth
Implants are placed under in-house IV sedation, and you go home the same day with a fixed provisional bridge. The drive back to Auburn is the same familiar WA-410 / WA-167 route.
Prototype try-in
A try-in to refine bite, esthetics, and speech before the final bridge is milled. A short, non-surgical visit, easiest scheduled mid-morning or early afternoon when the corridor flows well.
Final zirconia bridge
Your final zirconia bridge is delivered once osseointegration is confirmed. The finished result, on a predictable timeline, a short highway drive from Auburn.
Closer than you might think.
From most Auburn neighborhoods you are at the office in 18 to 25 minutes, mostly highway rather than local roads. Rush hour can extend the WA-167 portion, but the WA-410 corridor flows reasonably well through the day. Mid-morning and early afternoon are the easiest windows.
WA-18 → WA-167 S → WA-410 E
From downtown Auburn or Auburn Way South, a brief stretch of WA-18 East, then WA-167 South to WA-410 East into Bonney Lake. Off-peak this is the most common route.
WA-410 East (direct)
From Lea Hill, the M Street area, Lakeland Hills, and the Plateau side, direct WA-410 East access shaves several minutes. Many East Auburn residents are at the office in under 20.
WA-167 S → WA-410 E
From Auburn Riverside-area neighborhoods and the West Hill, WA-167 South to WA-410 East. Predictable outside of peak commute windows.

Questions patients actually ask.
The practical questions Auburn residents ask before scheduling a first consultation.
Yes. Thomas Jefferson High School, class of 2010, then Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma for undergrad, dental school at the University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni School in San Francisco, and a Naval residency at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth, followed by additional years on active duty before returning home. The Auburn connection is real rather than a marketing claim.
The differences are not about clinical competence. Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeons across the region provide competent care. The differences are practice model and pricing. Many regional groups are multi-surgeon, so the surgeon you meet at consultation may not be the one who operates. Elite is single-doctor. Most practices do not publish full-arch pricing. Elite publishes $15,000 per arch, all-inclusive. For routine procedures those differences may not matter much. For full-arch cases they become meaningful.
Yes. We accept referrals from any general dentist regardless of location. Your dentist sends a referral with imaging and clinical notes, and our office contacts you to schedule. For full-arch consultations, no referral is required and the consultation is complimentary. For wisdom teeth, single implants, and extractions, a referral is requested.
Coverage is determined by network participation and the procedures involved, not by how far the practice is from your home. We verify your dental benefits in writing before treatment and provide an estimate of patient responsibility. For full-arch cases, dental insurance is limited at every practice, since most plans cap major procedures well below the cost of treatment. HSA and FSA funds apply to every procedure, and five financing partners can spread payments across months.
Yes, at every visit: consultation, surgery, every prototype try-in, final delivery, and every follow-up. There is one surgeon at Elite, with no partner and no rotating provider. For complex full-arch cases especially, that continuity has clinical value, since the surgeon who placed your implants is the one evaluating your healing.
The practice is at 9907 205th Ave E in Bonney Lake, roughly 13 miles and 18 to 25 minutes from most Auburn neighborhoods. From downtown Auburn, WA-18 East to WA-167 South to WA-410 East takes 18 to 22 minutes. From Lea Hill, the M Street area, and Lakeland Hills, direct WA-410 East access is often under 20 minutes. Free on-site parking is available.
Not if you receive IV sedation. You will need a sober adult driver to bring you home, regardless of distance. This is the same requirement you would face at any Auburn-area practice. For procedures done with local anesthetic only, most patients can drive themselves.
Full-arch dental implants are $15,000 per arch, all-inclusive. That covers surgery, IV sedation, the same-day provisional bridge, the final zirconia bridge, and follow-up visits at 3, 6, and 12 months. All-on-4 and All-on-6 are priced identically, so the recommendation is based purely on your anatomy rather than on cost.
From Thomas Jefferson back to your community.
For full-arch implants, the consultation is complimentary, including 3D imaging and a written treatment plan with itemized pricing. For other procedures, a referral from your general dentist is requested. Either way, you’ll meet the surgeon who will personally perform your case, and who happens to know the Auburn area as well as you do.
