how much did you pay for one tooth implant?

I want to get a tooth implant where i have a terrible tooth that needs to get extracted. what did you pay for the “whole” process? Where did you get it done and would you recommend it? Also did you have to wait till your gum was healed with the extraction?

$ 2,600. Insurance didn’t cover any of the implant. Yes, you need to wait until the site has healed. But not too long or you may have bone loss at the extraction site. Talk to your dentist about it.

A friend of mine paid about 2500 dollars for the entire process, visit, exam, and one implant. They usually do the implant aptly with the extraction, but you have weeks of healing afterwards. It’s very costly.

i doubt you have to wait, i reckon they place it in then and here. it shouldn’t cost much but to get a excellent estimate call your local dentist for a quote.

Simple extraction, bone graft, immediate dental implant and temporary crown all $ 1200 with Dental Care India Tour. It may also be possible if you are young. The normal process of healing takes its own course and precaution is needed. The second visit is but required with healing to get the permanent crown. It may not be worth to take the vex for just one implant.

I am missing too many teeth on the decrease side ( 2 molars on the left , 2 molars+one premolar on the aptly ) can’t afford to place 5 implants , I was wondering if I place one implant on each side and then make a bridge with the implant and my excellent teeth , would it be an option ? And would it be cheaper than an implant? How much is a bridge ?

A bridge runs about 1000.00. Why not call around and question to see what the dr would suggest?

Answer by thddspc
A bridge supported on one end with an implant and the other end with a tooth is not ideal.

An implant does not go at all since it is frankly imbedded in bone. A natural tooth on the other hand has some give when you bite on it– a tooth is connected to the jawbone through a ligament that has some flex in it. So if one end of the bridge does not go while the other end does when you bite on it, the bridge might work itself loose over time.

That’s why it’s best to have a bridge supported wholly by implants or wholly by natural teeth, rather than mix the two. It can be done, but you need to know the longevity would be questionable.

Hope this helps.
