Oral surgery and dental implants near Covington, WA.
Elite Oral Surgery is about 20 to 25 minutes from Covington in Bonney Lake: closer than most Kent or Renton specialty appointments. A board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, a single-doctor practice, and full-arch dental implants at $15,000 per arch, all-inclusive.

Four reasons the drive is worth twenty minutes.
Covington residents are already driving out of town for oral surgery, which makes the question not whether to travel but where. The practices in Kent, Renton, and Auburn are capable; this is not a competence claim. The differences with Elite are structural: how the practice is owned, who performs the surgery, whether the price is published, and how far the clinical scope extends for complex cases.
Published, all-inclusive full-arch pricing
One flat price per arch: surgery, IV sedation, the same-day printed PMMA provisional, the prototype try-in, and the final zirconia bridge, posted publicly with no upcharge for materials some practices treat as premium. King County OMS practices typically do not publish full-arch pricing, and patient-reported quotes in the Kent and Auburn corridor commonly run $25,000 to $45,000 per arch.
The surgeon at consultation is the surgeon at every visit
Most oral surgery practices within reach of Covington are multi-surgeon groups where consultation, surgery, and follow-up may involve different providers. Elite is single-doctor. Dr. Volland performs your consultation, surgery, every try-in, the delivery, and every follow-up, which across twelve weeks of full-arch treatment is a materially different experience.
Including remote anchorage and the full OMS scope
Patients with severe maxillary atrophy told they need extensive grafting, or that they are not candidates at all, are often candidates with remote anchorage protocols. Zygomatic implants and the PATZI sequence are not standard at most practices near Covington; here they are, alongside the full traditional oral and maxillofacial scope.
Same-day provisional teeth from an in-house lab
Surgery day includes a printed PMMA provisional bridge designed and produced in our own lab, so you leave with teeth that look natural and let you eat soft food that night. Keeping the lab in-house means tighter quality control and, for a patient driving in from Covington, far faster turnaround on adjustments.
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 Covington 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
Four implants per arch supporting a complete fixed bridge, with 25+ years of outcome data showing 95%+ implant survival at 10 years. For most patients with adequate bone, All-on-4 is the appropriate starting recommendation, with alternatives evaluated from 3D imaging at consultation.
Six implants per arch instead of four, selected for strong bite forces, a history of bruxism, or anatomy where additional support is biomechanically warranted. Priced identically to All-on-4 here, so the recommendation is purely clinical; regional multi-provider practices typically charge $4,000 to $8,000 more.
For severe maxillary atrophy, usually after years of denture wear, longer implants are anchored in the cheekbone rather than the resorbed upper jaw, which removes the 6 to 9 month sinus-lift and grafting timeline. These protocols require specific training and are not standard at most Pacific Northwest practices, making Elite a genuine second-opinion option for Covington patients turned away elsewhere.
The term many patients use when they first start researching. It overlaps with All-on-4, All-on-X, and full-arch implants; the underlying procedure is the same, described with different vocabulary, and the evaluation, recommendation, and $15,000 per arch price are identical either way.
The modern alternative to a bridge or a removable partial, without compromising the adjacent healthy teeth. For patients referred by a Covington or Maple Valley general dentist, Elite handles the surgical placement and your own dentist typically completes the restoration crown over the following weeks.
Teeth broken at the gumline, fractured or ankylosed roots, dilacerated roots, 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 IV sedation available.
The procedures that make implants possible after bone loss. Socket preservation immediately after an extraction protects bone volume for a future implant; a sinus lift rebuilds height in the upper-back jaw. Pricing and healing timelines are 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 from Covington.
Consultation & 3D imaging
Meet Dr. Volland, get a CBCT scan, and leave with a written treatment plan and itemized pricing. About 20 to 25 minutes from Covington via WA-18 and Auburn Way South, most of it highway.
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 home to Covington is the same familiar route through Auburn.
Prototype try-in
A try-in to refine bite, esthetics, and speech before the final bridge is milled. A short, non-surgical visit that fits easily into a morning or an afternoon.
Final zirconia bridge
Your final zirconia bridge is delivered once osseointegration is confirmed: the finished result, on a predictable timeline, twenty minutes from home.
Twenty minutes via WA-18 and Auburn.
From most Covington neighborhoods you are at the office in 20 to 25 minutes. The route drops down WA-18 into Auburn and crosses to WA-410, so it is mostly highway with a short surface stretch. If you have driven to the Outlet Collection or the Muckleshoot area, you have already made most of this drive.
WA-18 W → Auburn Way S → WA-410 E
From central Covington, WA-18 West to Auburn Way South, then across to WA-410 East into Bonney Lake. The most common route from anywhere along Covington Way and 272nd, and the fastest off-peak.
WA-18 W → WA-167 S → WA-410 E
WA-18 West to WA-167 South, then WA-410 East. Slightly longer but entirely highway, and usually the better choice if Auburn Way is congested around school or commute hours.

Questions patients actually ask.
The practical questions Covington residents ask before scheduling a first consultation.
Covington has no oral surgery practice of its own, so residents travel either way and the drive times are comparable. Patients choose Elite for published full-arch pricing, one surgeon across the entire course of treatment, and remote anchorage protocols that not every regional practice offers.
Elite publishes $15,000 per arch, all-inclusive, with the final zirconia bridge included. King County practices generally do not publish full-arch pricing, and patient-reported quotes across the Kent, Auburn, and Renton corridor run $25,000 to $45,000 per arch. For wisdom teeth, single implants, and extractions, pricing is broadly comparable.
Yes, at every visit. Elite is a single-doctor practice, so Dr. Volland performs your consultation, surgery, every prototype try-in, the final delivery, and each follow-up. There is no partner and no rotating provider, which matters most across the twelve weeks of a full-arch plan.
Yes. Referrals are accepted from any general dentist regardless of location. Your dentist sends imaging and clinical notes, and our office contacts you to schedule. Full-arch consultations require no referral and are complimentary; for wisdom teeth, single implants, and extractions, a referral is requested.
Elite is in-network with most major dental carriers and verifies your benefits in writing before treatment. Most dental plans cap major procedures at $1,000 to $3,000 per lifetime, while medical insurance may cover more when a case is medically necessary. HSA and FSA funds apply, and five financing partners are available.
For true emergencies such as significant facial trauma, severe infection, or uncontrolled bleeding, an emergency department is the right resource. For Covington residents, MultiCare Covington Medical Center and MultiCare Auburn Medical Center are closest. For urgent non-emergencies, our office line provides same-day or next-day guidance.
About 20 to 25 minutes off-peak, roughly 16 miles. The usual route is WA-18 west to Auburn Way South, then WA-410 east into Bonney Lake. If Auburn Way is congested, WA-18 west to WA-167 south to WA-410 east runs 22 to 27 minutes. Free on-site parking is available.
Twenty minutes, and you will see the difference.
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 will meet Dr. Volland personally and find out whether what we offer is what you have been looking for.
