Without proper consultation with your dentist, it is actually very difficult to determine the cost of dental implants. It can vary considerably, depending on the quality of the materials used in the implant and prosthetic tooth, as well as the time and skill required for the procedure itself. It also depends on the number of missing teeth that need to be replaced and the number of implant posts that are necessary to secure your dental restorations. Depending on the scope of your procedure, the cost of your treatment may very well be less or more than the average price.
Since dental implants are anchored into the jawbone, your gums and teeth have to be in good health and that you have sufficient bone in the jaw to support implant posts. For some patients, bone grafting or other procedures may be required before the placement of dental implants. If you require any additional treatments in preparation for your dental implant surgery, these procedures will affect the overall cost as well. There could be other associated costs with the dental implant procedure as well, such as tooth extraction, sedation or x-rays.
The best way to establish the cost of dental implants for you is to contact us and set up a consultation with Dr. Diana or Nick Atanasiu at their Renfrew dental office.
For a lot of patients, dental implants could a relatively expensive procedure, but there are definitely a lot of benefits. Missing teeth create a gap that can affect how you look and how you chew. Besides the aesthetic value, in the long-term, your remaining teeth may shift and move as the forces on the remaining teeth are increased. This can lead to even more tooth loss in the future. Dental Implants definitely provide a safe and reliable foundation for fixed or replacement teeth. They improve your smile and self confidence as well make it easier for you to chew food properly. They look and function just like regular teeth therefore in many cases they are definitely investing in, despite the costs associated with them.
Dental Implantation can be done anytime after adolescence or when bone growth is fully complete. Certain medical conditions such as gum or periodontal disease may require additional treatment before the implant procedure can be performed.
To determine if implants are right for you, your dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth and gums and evaluate bone density and quantity. This may involve X-rays and CT scans to ensure there is sufficient bone structure for placing the implant, and to determine exactly where the implant should be placed.
Based on the condition of your oral tissues, oral hygiene and personal habits, and commitment to follow aftercare instructions, your dentist will advise you of the most appropriate Dental Implant treatment plan. Some patients with insufficient bone or gum tissue require bone or soft tissue grafts or the use of smaller implants.
