From the repository

Run directly with npx — no installation needed. Add the server to your MCP config file (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json or .cursor/mcp.json) with the command npx -y realdentalcosts-mcp. Restart your client after saving. The server runs entirely offline over stdio with no API key, network calls, or telemetry.

dental_cost_by_state

Get the low/average/high cash price for a dental procedure in a specific US state, compared to the national average. Example: procedure="implant", state="CA" returns California's single-implant price range plus how it compares to the 51-state (incl. DC) national average and the state's dental cost index. Market research pricing data, not medical or financial advice.

dental_cost_by_city

Get the observed average single-implant cost and clinic count for a specific US city (206 cities), with the parent state's implant price band for context. Example: city="Miami". Only the implant series is published at city level upstream (open dataset, DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20819438) — per-city veneer/braces figures were retired in the source site's 2026-07 data-integrity work. Pass "state" (2-letter code) to disambiguate same-named cities. Market research pricing data, not medical or financial advice.

out_of_pocket_estimate

Estimate what a patient actually pays for a dental procedure in a given state under a payment mode: "cash" (full list price), "insurance" (typical US PPO plan: preventive ~100%, basic ~80% up to a $1,500 annual max, major/ortho ~50% up to the same max, cosmetic/implants not covered), or "savings_plan" (dental discount plan, ~20-40% off list price). Example: procedure="crown", state="TX", mode="insurance". Market research pricing data, not medical or financial advice.

dental_national_average

Get the US national average low/avg/high cash price for a dental procedure (mean across all 51 states + DC), plus which state is cheapest and priciest on average. Example: procedure="veneer". Market research pricing data, not medical or financial advice.
