Dental Implants Cost - Buyer Experiences and Price Information

Shingle springs medical clinic and dental school opened to public sliding scale also takes most insurance and Medicaid they do implants r very kind and knowledgeable

tooth broke off had base removed then post and implant. just bought a 2003 Subaru outback 68K for $3800 which is the better deal??? DENTISTRY HAS GOTTEN OUT OF HAND

Ok, 2008: 500 for an mri, 2000 anesthesia, 30000 for: extractions, 13 implants, (7 upper, 6 lower), and upper and lower temporary implant mounted dentures. cost 32500-1500 insurance is 31000. 160 every 3 month cleaning thereafter. 2014: permanent upper 16500-800 insurance is 15700. 2015: permanent lower probably another 15700. So far 49000 minus 2300 dental insurance reimbursement is 46700 and with 2015: 16500-800 is 15700 so the total will be 62400 after insurance. Loan interest from GE Capital (CareCredit, now Synchrony) is 14.9% so its been about 450 a month since 2008 with cleaning.

Dsabled vet who is on alot of psin meds plus a diabetic who teeth have rotten out or just fell out. I have 2 dental insurance snd still can't get any help. I don't Smile, I have no friends I don't socialize. I think I look hideous so I stay home doing nothing everyday. I have been quoted $3k to $5k and ghsts just the extraction and implant. Hell they want $140 per tooth just to extract and I have 8, insurance will only pay for 50 percent. Fixed income and no help. THE VA Hospital Won't even help. Called dental school which is associated with Emory and the want $500 just to determine how much more they will need. As If I have 500 to give away.

I LOVE MY DENTURES,not implants !!!! Food tastes the same, little to no flopping and a nice tight fit. I occasionally get something crunchy under the bottom plate like tiny pieces of taco shell, bacon or corn meal type on the bottom of pizza crust but other than that I love them and I am now on my 2nd set in 20 yrs. only because I grind my teeth and it made my side a little crooked.

THIS GOES TO THE DINGBAT THAT THINKS THE DENTAL STUDENT GETS THE MONEY. NO they do not. The school gets it to help fund the school, to turn out professional dentists. You fill out a form that may ask some questions of your financial background and they will then charge you a very small percentage based upon your financial capabilities. It is supervised by the teachers which are established Doctors of Dentistry. Get your facts straight. Unless you like sticking both feet in your mouth, and sound not too smart.

After a "treatment plan" to the tune of $12,330 for implants and crowns for the 3 teeth---I called the University of Kansas Dental School and found that my co$t there was less than HALF of that quoted by my dentist. They also have a credit-card application and if accepted-there is NO interest charged while paying it off. Keep looking and good luck!!!

I take medications for pain and they are ruining my teeth. Yesterday my bottom right front tooth just broke and fell out. I called my dentist and of course my insurance doesn't cover it. I spent over $3,000 on my teeth in the past 4 years. I am on disability and 55 years old and right now I just do not want to walk around without a front tooth! I am embarrassed to open my mouth! Is there anybody out there who could help me out? Please?

I read one persons posting. He mentioned"Posted: July 15th, 2013 05:07AM. He mentioned "
My bone grafts came from cadavars not from my body which they say hurts like hell! I had this done 5 days ago 07-09-2013 and I had no swelling and only minor pain." What type of bone grafts that came from cadavars".
Can I use my other tooth and place in a different area of my mouth instead of others?
Can regenerative medicine can be used to grow tooth?

I priced denture implants in the US.and the price to remove 8 lower teeth,implant 6 pins on the bottom, and 6 on top, with impant dentures top and bottom. cost $55,000.00 the same thing in mexico, $8,000.00. I researched three different people who went to mexico, and got glowing reports.dentists here say that they are not goog dentists. well you be the judge $deduct $8000 from $55,000 which one can you afford ? I'm retired, which one do you think I'm going to do, I have no insurance that will pay for this.

I had to have all my upper teeth pulled due to massive infection and near death. Presently using a temporary plastic upper denture that flops around while eating anything. Permanent plate is to be coming the end of August 2014. I only have CareCredit with a $3,000.00 limit. I really hoped and wished for implants but I'm retired on a fixed income. Implants are NOT affordable to everyone as I always see advertised. I know there are grants but my dentist obviously opted to not go that route with me. I still dare not bite on or chew anything hard. Limited to soft foods only!

Roger,
I would love to know what office/doctor you used, and more info regarding your ceramics. Length of time you've had them, basic pros/cons, any breakdown of your costs for comparison. Thanks!

age 69, petite & small-boned female. I bit into my fave 1/2 pound burger at Burgerville, only to chomp a small stone which broke my upper canine at the gumline,& created a vertical crack in an upper molar. Both teeth 'terminal'. Since the insurance co for the restaurant refused to step up, and Bville did not respond, the 8 to 15K to repair the broken teeth is mine to pay. My CONCLUSION: AT ALMOST 70, with shrinking bones, failing root-canals, the normal age-related loosening of teeth, I can play the "must keep my teeth game", or have all my teeth taken out. I am researching now as to Swiss Denture. Does anyone have any experience with their work?

For those of you that can't afford to pay for a good dentist, you should find a dental school near you. You can get very smart college kids work on your teeth under the direct supervision of theyr teacher. They need to practice on real people before they get licensed

I had the All-On-4 implant procedure with fixed bridge done in April 2014 at a very good implant center in Indianapolis. I have 4 implants placed on the upper arch. I have a fixed, non-removable bridge screwed to the implants. This is NOT a removable overdenture., that you take out every night. It is removable only by a dentist once a year for maintenance. The teeth on the bridge are made of Zirconia, not the cheap acrylic teeth that some places try to sell you, and which wear down and require replacing in 5-7 years. The teeth and implants have a lifetime warranty. The price includes everything, including all follow-up visits. My local oral surgeon quoted $50,000 for the same procedure!! I did TONS of research and shopped around, and found an incredible price in the Midwest.
