What Factors Determine The Cost of Dental Implants?
Posted on 5/23/2022 by Gwinnett Dental Implant & Periodontal Center
When going for dental implant surgery, one of the things you want to know is the cost. Many people tend to avoid getting dental implants because they fear that the cost will be too high. It is important that you get the facts correct when it comes to dental implant placement costs.
Factors affecting Dental Implant Costs
Your total cost for receiving dental implants is assessed based on your specific case. The dental reconstruction cost is assessed on a tooth-by-tooth and full-mouth basis. Receiving implants requires multiple stages of treatment spread over weeks or even months. If you have bone loss due to past gum disease, you expect the treatment to last longer and so is the cost. You will need to get bone grafting as part of the implant placement procedure. The grafting is done to increase bone mass, allowing proper anchoring of the dental implants and reducing the chances of failure.
The final cost is also determined by the number of implants to be placed as well as the type of restoration. For full-arch implant placement, you may only require four implants for the All-on-4 procedure as opposed to fitting one implant for every tooth.
Remember that the dental implant costs include the restorations, number of implants, sedation options, any extraction, grafting, and other associated treatments needed. A dentist will break down the details of the fees and appointments so that you understand the cost implications. Often, there will not be any unwanted surprises that catch you off guard.
