Dental Implants Are an Investment in Your Future
While dental implants are considered the ideal option to replace missing teeth, many patients worry about the overall cost of the procedure. Every patient has different needs when it comes to replacing their lost teeth and these needs can alter the overall cost of dental implants. At Advanced Dentistry, we encourage all our patients to look at dental implants as an investment in their oral and overall health, as well as in their quality of life. Implants provide many benefits that other tooth replacement options cannot offer, such as durability, preventing bone deterioration and the ability to last the rest of your life with proper care.
Are You Currently Wearing Dentures?
With dental implants we can even replace a full arch of missing teeth as an alternative to regular dentures. While traditional dentures may seem like a more affordable option upfront, full-arch dental implants, like implant supported dentures are a better investment over the course of your lifetime. Dentures are effective at restoring function to the mouth, but they do not prevent bone deterioration and often need to be replaced several times as the jaw changes shape due to the bone deterioration. In many cases, full-arch dental implants cost less over the course of a lifetime than it would to continually replace old dentures.
What Determines The Cost of Implants?
Every dental implant case is different for each patient. Whether it be the appearance of the tooth being replaced, how many teeth need to be replaced or even the health of the oral structure, many factors are considered when creating your treatment plan. We begin the evaluation process with a cone beam CT scan using our state-of-the-art Gendex GXDP-700™ machine.This gives us a detailed, 3D view of your oral structure so we can accurately plan the position and placement of your dental implants.
Factors we consider when determining your dental implant cost include:
- Number of teeth to be replaced
- Tooth extractions needed
- Number of implants placed
- Bone grafting or sinus lift needed
- Treatment of gum disease
- Severity of the case
