Elite Oral Surgery and Dental Implants is in Bonney Lake — eight minutes from Sumner via SR-410. Board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, single-doctor practice, full-arch dental implants at $15,000 per arch all-inclusive. The kind of practice Sumner residents have driven to Tacoma or Auburn to find — now genuinely local.
Schedule a Consultation →Sumner and Bonney Lake share commercial corridors, school district boundaries, and the daily rhythm of East Pierce County life. The drive is one most Sumner residents already make routinely.
Schedule ConsultationSumner residents have historically driven to Tacoma, Auburn, or beyond for specialty oral surgical care — particularly for full-arch dental implants and complex cases. Elite Oral Surgery in Bonney Lake changes that equation: an option closer than any of those previous destinations, with structural advantages that distinguish it from the multi-surgeon group practices and chain implant centers Sumner residents have driven to.
The practice is single-doctor (Dr. Volland personally performs every consultation, surgery, and follow-up), publishes flat $15,000 all-inclusive pricing for full-arch implants, and offers the full surgical scope including remote anchorage protocols for severe maxillary atrophy. For Sumner residents, that combination is now eight minutes away — closer than Auburn, much closer than Tacoma, and structurally different from what's available at any of those farther destinations.
Structural advantages that distinguish Elite from the practices Sumner residents have historically traveled to for oral surgical care.
$15,000 per arch — surgery, IV sedation, same-day printed PMMA provisional, prototype try-in, and the final zirconia bridge included. Posted publicly. Tacoma- and Auburn-area OMS practices typically don't publish full-arch pricing, with patient-reported quotes commonly running $25,000-$45,000 per arch. The price differential alone often justifies switching to Elite, before considering the shorter drive.
Most multi-surgeon group practices Sumner residents have driven to operate with rotating providers — a different doctor for consultation, surgery, and follow-up. Elite is a single-doctor practice. Dr. Volland personally performs every consultation, surgery, prototype try-in, final delivery, and follow-up visit. For full-arch cases that span 12 weeks of treatment, that continuity is a structural advantage, not a marketing claim.
Patients with severe maxillary atrophy who've been told they need extensive grafting — or that they're not candidates for full-arch implants at all — are often candidates with remote anchorage protocols. Zygomatic implants and the PATZI sequence aren't standard at most Pacific Northwest OMS practices; they're standard here. Sumner patients seeking second opinions on candidacy frequently find Elite is the practice that offers a different answer.
Eight minutes via SR-410. For most Sumner neighborhoods, no other oral and maxillofacial surgery practice is closer. The structural advantages above don't come with a geographic tradeoff — Elite is both the more specialized option and the closer option, which is unusual in the Pacific Northwest specialty care market.
The route is straightforward: SR-410 East directly from Sumner to Bonney Lake. From most Sumner neighborhoods, the drive is 8-12 minutes depending on starting point and time of day. The corridor is highway, not local roads — predictable and consistent.
Sumner residents already drive this corridor routinely — for shopping in Bonney Lake's commercial district, for trips to the Plateau, for Mt. Rainier and Crystal Mountain access. The drive to Elite Oral Surgery uses the same familiar route as those everyday trips.
For surgery days under IV sedation, you'll need a driver to bring you home — IV sedation universally requires a driver regardless of distance. Most Sumner patients arrange a family member or friend; the geographic proximity makes that arrangement straightforward.
Every procedure offered at Elite is available to Sumner-area patients — from routine wisdom teeth removal to the most complex full-arch implant cases.

Learn More →Sumner and Bonney Lake share the SR-410 corridor — the same route Sumner residents drive daily for commuting, errands, and trips toward Mt. Rainier. Elite Oral Surgery sits about 10 minutes east of Sumner along this same corridor, putting the full scope of OMS specialty care within an unusually short and familiar drive for Sumner patients.
For Sumner-area patients facing full-arch tooth loss, full-arch dental implants at Elite represent a meaningfully different option than the Tacoma chain implant centers and South Sound multi-provider practices Sumner residents have historically driven to. Elite's primary clinical focus is full-arch reconstruction, with All-on-4, All-on-6, and zygomatic protocols available based on each patient's specific anatomy. The all-inclusive price is $15,000 per arch — typically $5,000-$35,000 less than what Sumner patients are quoted at chain centers and Tacoma multi-provider practices. For a procedure of this magnitude with a multi-month treatment timeline, the 10-minute drive on the corridor Sumner patients already use daily is substantively different from a 25-minute drive to Tacoma.
The most common full-arch protocol Sumner patients research is All-on-4 dental implants — four implants per arch supporting a complete fixed bridge, with 25+ years of long-term outcome data and 95%+ implant survival at 10 years. For most Sumner patients with adequate bone, All-on-4 is the appropriate starting recommendation; alternatives are evaluated based on 3D imaging at consultation.
All-on-6 dental implants use six implants per arch when biomechanics warrant additional support — strong bite forces, history of bruxism, or specific anatomical considerations. Elite prices All-on-4 and All-on-6 identically at $15,000 per arch. Sumner patients who've researched options at chain centers or Tacoma practices typically encounter $4,000-$8,000 markups for All-on-6 framed as a "premium upgrade" — the absence of that markup at Elite reflects the independent ownership structure rather than a quality difference.
Sumner patients with severe maxillary bone loss who've been told they "aren't candidates" for full-arch implants without months of grafting may be candidates for zygomatic implants. The protocol anchors longer implants in the cheekbone (zygoma) rather than the resorbed upper jaw, eliminating the 6-9 month grafting timeline that would otherwise be required. Zygomatic protocols aren't standard at most regional OMS practices — making Elite a meaningful second-opinion option for Sumner patients who've been turned away at other practices.
"Full mouth dental implants" is the term most patients use when first researching the procedure — it overlaps with All-on-4, All-on-X, and full-arch implants. The clinical evaluation is the same regardless of which terminology you used to find the practice. For Sumner patients arriving at consultation having researched extensively under "full mouth" terminology, the consultation typically converges on the same protocol selection (All-on-4, All-on-6, or zygomatic) based on 3D imaging.
For Sumner patients missing one or several teeth, single dental implants are the modern alternative to bridges and removable partials. The implant integrates with the jawbone and supports a crown that functions and looks like a natural tooth — without the disadvantages of bridges (compromising adjacent healthy teeth) or partials (removability, retention issues). For patients referred by a Sumner-area general dentist, Elite handles the surgical placement; the restoration crown is typically completed by your referring dentist over the following weeks. The proximity makes coordination straightforward — same-day post-surgical communication between Elite and Sumner-area restorative practices is routine.
For Sumner-area teenagers and young adults — Sumner High School families, Bonney Lake High families in the Sumner-Bonney Lake school district, or those in the Pierce College area — wisdom teeth removal at Elite is performed in a controlled surgical environment with in-house IV sedation administered by a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon. Most cases involve removal of all four third molars in a single 60-minute session under IV sedation. Most patients return to school or normal activities within 5-7 days. The 10-minute drive home for Sumner families avoids the half-day commitment that comes with driving from further north or west. Referral from your general dentist is requested.
For Sumner patients facing oral surgery who prefer or require IV sedation, Elite provides in-house IV sedation administered by Dr. Volland under Washington State General Anesthesia Permit. The sedation training comes from Dr. Volland's Naval residency at Naval Medical Center Portsmouth. You'll need a sober adult driver to take you home — IV sedation universally requires this regardless of distance, even for the 10-minute drive on SR-410.
For Sumner-area general dentists encountering complex extractions — broken teeth at the gumline, fractured roots, ankylosed teeth, or anxious patients requiring sedation — referral to Elite for surgical extractions provides a controlled surgical environment with appropriate instrumentation, IV sedation availability, and the surgical training to manage complications. Sumner-area general dentists who've historically referred to OMS practices in Tacoma or Auburn now have a closer referral resource — particularly meaningful for anxious patients facing the prospect of a longer drive.
For Sumner patients whose bone volume isn't adequate for immediate implant placement, bone grafting rebuilds the foundation. The most common application is socket preservation immediately after extraction — preserving bone volume around the extraction site to maintain neighboring teeth stability and (when relevant) preserve options for future implant placement. Sinus lifts rebuild bone height in the upper-back areas where the maxillary sinus has expanded into space previously occupied by tooth roots. Both procedures are commonly performed at Elite as part of broader treatment plans.
For Sumner patients comparing Elite to other Pacific Northwest providers, our Comparing Full Arch Options page provides a six-question evaluation framework that applies to any practice you're considering.
Structurally, yes. Elite is single-doctor (most Tacoma- and Auburn-area OMS practices are multi-surgeon groups), publishes a flat $15,000 per arch all-inclusive full-arch price (most don't publish), offers in-house milling for same-day provisional teeth (most rely entirely on external labs), and provides the full OMS scope including zygomatic implants and remote anchorage protocols (which many practices refer out).
Clinical competence is comparable across board-certified OMS practices in the South Sound region. The differences with Elite are about practice model and pricing structure, not differences in clinical quality. For most Sumner residents — particularly for full-arch implant cases — the structural advantages combined with the shorter drive make Elite the more practical choice.
For full-arch implant cases, Elite publishes $15,000 per arch all-inclusive — including the final zirconia bridge. Tacoma- and Auburn-area OMS practices typically don't publish full-arch pricing publicly; quotes are provided after paid consultation, and patient-reported pricing in those areas commonly runs $25,000-$45,000 per arch with zirconia frequently positioned as a premium upgrade.
For other procedures (wisdom teeth, single implants, extractions), pricing is more comparable across competent practices — though Elite's all-inclusive structure and in-network status with most major dental carriers tends to result in lower predictable out-of-pocket costs.
Yes — at every visit. This is the structural difference between Elite and most multi-surgeon practices: there is one surgeon at Elite, and that surgeon performs your consultation, your surgery, every prototype try-in (for full-arch cases), the final delivery, and every follow-up. No partner. No rotating provider.
Yes. We accept referrals from any general dentist, regardless of geographic location. Most Sumner-area general dentists already refer some cases to oral surgeons in the broader region; adding Elite simply gives them another specialty referral option that's now closer than the alternatives. For wisdom teeth, single implants, surgical extractions, and other procedures, a referral from your general dentist is requested. For full-arch implant consultations, no referral is required and consultations are complimentary.
Elite Oral Surgery is in-network with most major dental insurance carriers. We verify your specific dental insurance benefits before treatment and provide a written estimate of patient responsibility. For full-arch cases, dental insurance typically provides limited coverage, but medical insurance may cover meaningful portions of treatment when the case qualifies as medically necessary — see our insurance page for verification options. HSA and FSA funds are eligible for all our procedures.
For true emergencies (significant facial trauma, severe acute infection, uncontrolled bleeding), the nearest emergency departments include MultiCare Good Samaritan in Puyallup and St. Anthony Hospital in Gig Harbor. For urgent but non-emergency situations, our office line provides same-day or next-day guidance, and we make every effort to evaluate established patients who develop post-operative concerns. The eight-minute drive applies to follow-ups; emergency care uses local resources, just as it would regardless of where your surgical practice is located.
Elite Oral Surgery and Dental Implants opens in February 2027 in Bonney Lake. The facility is in the buildout phase as of the date you're reading this page. Consultations can be scheduled in advance of opening; surgical scheduling for patients beginning treatment in early 2027 is starting to fill in.
If you're researching options for full-arch implants or planning surgical care, we recommend scheduling a consultation now even if your treatment timeline extends a few months. The Founders pricing for the first 40 surgical patients fills based on consultation date, not solely on procedure date.
For full-arch implants, the consultation is complimentary — including 3D imaging and a written treatment plan with itemized pricing. For other procedures, a paid consultation and referral from your general dentist are requested. In either case, you'll meet with Dr. Volland personally and find out what kind of practice has been the next town over all along.
