Smile Savers Dentistry: Dental Implants Costs - What You Need to Know

Smile Savers Dentistry understands that dental implants are a major investment for your oral health. Our practice, led by Dr. Anuja Patel, as our head dentist, is dedicated to offering transparent pricing and excellent care in order to achieve a beautiful smile that will last a lifetime. This comprehensive guide will explore the factors that affect the cost of dental implants, what you can expect during treatment, and why Smile Savers Dentistry should be your first choice.

Dental Implant Cost is Influenced by Several Factors

• Number of Implants: The number of dental implants required to restore your smile will determine the cost. Dr. Patel can create a treatment plan that is tailored to meet your needs, whether you need a single implant for a missing tooth replacement or multiple implants supporting a full-arch restoration.
• Implant Material: Dental implants are usually made of biocompatible materials like titanium or zirconia. These materials offer durability and long-term longevity. The cost of the treatment can be affected by the type of implant used. Zirconia implants are generally more expensive than titanium implants.
• Implant Placement: The location, complexity, and cost of the treatment can be affected by implant placement. Implants placed at the front of your mouth or in areas where there is limited bone density can require additional procedures, such as sinus lifts or bone grafting. These additional procedures can increase the cost of treatment.
• Restoration Type: The type and cost of the restoration that is placed over the dental implants can influence the overall treatment costs. During your initial consultation, Dr. Patel can discuss all of the options available to you, including their costs.
• Additional Procedures: In certain cases, additional procedures are necessary to improve the success of the treatment or prepare the mouth for implant placement. Additional costs will be incurred for procedures such as bone grafting or soft tissue augmentation.
• Dentist’s Experience and Expertise: The cost of dental implants can be affected by the experience and expertise provided by the implant provider. Dr. Patel is a highly-trained dentist with years of experience placing and restoring implants. This ensures optimal results and patient satisfaction.
  

Dental implants: What are they worth?

Although the initial cost of a dental implant may seem higher than other tooth replacement options such as dentures or bridges, it is important to consider their long-term value and benefits. Dental implants are a permanent way to replace missing teeth and restore oral function. They also improve the quality of your life. Dental implants can last a lifetime if they are properly maintained and cared for.

• Initial Consultation: Dr. Patel examines your mouth and discusses your treatment goals during your initial consultation. This personalized approach will ensure that your treatment plan is customized to your needs and concerns. Dr. Patel is happy to answer all your questions about the dental implant process including timelines, risks, and costs.
• Diagnostic Imaging: Dr. Patel will use advanced diagnostic imaging tools such as intraoral cameras, CT scans, or digital X-rays to plan your dental implant treatment. These tools enable him to evaluate the quantity and quality of your jawbone and identify any oral health problems. She can also determine the best placement for your implants. Dr. Patel will gather detailed information on your oral anatomy to create a treatment plan that maximizes your dental implant's success and durability.
• Preparation and Planning: Dr. Patel will prepare for the placement of your dental implants after gathering all diagnostic information. To ensure long-term success, Dr. Patel may address any oral health problems, such as tooth decay or periodontal diseases. Dr. Patel carefully plans the placement of your implant, taking into consideration factors such as bone densities, sinus locations, and adjacent teeth, to achieve optimal aesthetics, function, and appearance.
• Implant Placement Surgery: Implant placement surgery is the next step of the dental implant process. This involves the surgical placement into your jawbone. This procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia in order to maintain your comfort. Dr. Patel uses precision techniques and the latest equipment to insert the implants in the jawbone at the desired positions. After the implants have been placed, temporary healing caps and abutments can be used to support temporary restorations.
• Healing and Osseointegration. After the implant has been placed, it is necessary to heal for a certain period to allow the implant to integrate with surrounding bone tissue. The osseointegration process is crucial for the stability of your dental implant. Dr. Patel provides detailed instructions on post-operative care in order to maximize healing and minimize discomfort. Although osseointegration can take several months, it is the basis for your final restorations.
• Final Restoration Placement: After osseointegration, Dr. Patel begins the process of placing your custom-made dental implants with prosthetic teeth. It may be necessary to attach abutments between the implant and the final restoration. Dr. Patel ensures that the final restorations you receive, whether they are individual crowns or bridges supported by implants, or dentures attached to implants, meet the highest aesthetic and quality standards. Your new teeth are carefully crafted to seamlessly blend with your existing smile, restoring comfort and confidence.
• Following-up and Maintenance: Dr. Patel schedules follow-up appointments after your final restorations are placed to monitor the healing process and ensure that your dental implants will last a long time. These appointments are an opportunity for you to ask any questions and to make any adjustments necessary to your restorations to ensure comfort and functionality. Dr. Patel can also give you advice on how to maintain your oral hygiene and care for your dental implant to ensure their longevity. This will keep your smile beautiful and healthy for many years.
