Affordable Dental Implants

Contents

You thought everything was fine. No one appeared to notice that you were missing a few teeth, and then someone crossed the line. You were given granny slippers and a crocheted blanket for Christmas, the suggestion being that it was time to curl up on the sofa with your cat and a glass of warm milk.

Losing your teeth has started to make you look old. You hardly talk to anyone anymore anyway, so why not settle in for an early nap? Nonsense!

You don’t have to settle when affordable dental implants are just a phone call away.

Perhaps family members will be more direct and tactful about it, but someone needs to tell you that affordable dental implants can be life-changing. Finding affordable dental implants starts with an internet search and the willingness to travel a bit. Chances are you will have to go to a major city to find a dentist who makes it his business to offer affordable dental services to people who need them. It may seem like a false economy if you have to pay for train tickets or gas, but simply note the difference in cost and it soon becomes clear: traveling is well worth the effort to have your smile again.

Dental Implants – Why So Expensive?

The reason dental implants are so expensive is that lots of people get involved in making them, inserting them, and finishing them. Add this to the cost of materials plus the dentist’s helicopter fees, and soon you will have to sell your car to be able to eat steak again.

One of the biggest myths about dental implants is that they are expensive. But expensive compared to what?

We’re proud to be a part of these advancements because it enables us to offer you a healthier smile for less. What’s more, is that we offer your full procedure at one fixed cost that will not change. Would you purchase a car without knowing the full amount upfront? Why should your smile be any different?

The Cost Of Not Acting

Your oral condition has serious implications for your overall health. With advances in technology, there has never been a better time to get dental implants. It’s a natural inclination to wonder about the cost of dental implants. But have you considered the cost of not acting? The longer you wait to treat your missing or failing teeth, the worse they become. And the more you wait, the more it will potentially cost to restore your smile and your oral health.

Dentists can cut costs by doing what every consumer does to save money: buying in bulk. Since there is no such thing as a poor dentist, it is clear that these procedures take place often enough for a professional to buy materials in advance. Moreover, if he is trained, he can perform more of the work himself rather than sending you to a different person to tackle each portion of the process. All of this could save you money, even after you ask for a strong sedative to get you through the process.

Most of these dental practices advertise services over the internet. Internet advertising helps to keep costs down and reach more people while broadening their client base at the same time. More customers and lower media costs add up to savings we can pass on to customers. Make sure to request a cost analysis for the dental implants when you see one of our dentists.

Finding Affordable Dental Implants – Just In Time

Consider taking advantage of these services before anyone has to prompt you. Surprise them with a new smile. The benefits start with self-esteem, which is critical to living a full life. Not everyone who loses teeth will be elderly. Many young people suffer from dental conditions or injuries which lead to tooth loss. When you cannot smile or speak freely, this cuts you off from people and hampers your chances of success, especially if you want to work in a customer service capacity.

Worse still, your jaw needs teeth in it to stay healthy. Without anything to support, your jaw starts to waste away like a muscle that never gets used. Your mouth will change shape so that, even if you want to get dentures eventually, they will not fit. Act quickly to prevent this from happening and give us a call today.

The benefit of choosing affordable dental implants over dentures is that they will help you to keep bone mass, whereas dentures do not. You have just as good a chance of losing bone if you wear dentures as you do without teeth.

Even dentures can be placed in your mouth semi-permanently. Your dentist will fix them to a number of posts so that you take hip hop lessons without losing them. While the screaming of your fellow dancers or the audience as they go flying could be exciting, the rule of ‘finders keepers’ could spell your downfall for finding affordable dental implants.

Why Get Dental Implants

If you need to replace missing teeth, you probably already know that there are many different treatment options available. But finding the right solution can be challenging at best. The most important reason to replace your missing teeth is that your life isn’t the same without them. Dental implants are the only treatment that permanently solves missing or failing teeth. Life isn’t waiting. Neither should you.

everyday-obstacleDental implants have been called the most significant dental innovation of our generation for good reason. The medical-grade titanium from which they’re made actually fuses to living bone, resulting in teeth that feel completely natural. Moreover, implants actually help preserve your jawbone, which can become vulnerable to shrinkage over time once teeth are lost unlike dentures or alternative products. This means you can get back to smiling and being yourself again.

Jawbone Deterioration

When you lose a tooth, whether from disease or extraction, the lack of stimulation that tooth provides causes the supporting bone in the jaw to dissolve – a process called resorption.

jawbone-deterioration

The longer the tooth is missing, the more bone loss can occur. One of the most remarkable things about dental implants is that they prevent deterioration.

Premature Aging

When you lose a tooth, the bone that used to surround it melts away over time. The longer the tooth is missing, the greater the loss. As bone loses width and height, gum tissue also gradually decreases, causing the distance from the nose to chin to shrink with it and prematurely aging the face.

Not only have dental implants become the best treatment option for missing teeth, but now they are more affordable than ever. Just a few years ago, the cost of a full dental restoration with implants could easily have exceeded $80,000 and involved multiple trips to many different specialists.

At our ‘under 1 roof’ centers, permanent implant procedures are done by a resident team of experts for a fraction of that price. Total costs vary depending on the level of treatment needed by each patient – such as the location of missing teeth and the amount of bone loss.

All-inclusive costs for a single implant case in our centers typically range between $1500 – $1900, with one-day procedures to restore full arches averaging $3498 – $18,000 per arch depending on the complexity of your case.

Dental Implants 101: The Crown, the Abutment, and the Post

The crown is the part of the tooth that you can see. It’s usually made of porcelain and is also fully customizable so you can design your perfect new smile. It’s also strong enough to allow you to bite into a steak or an ear of corn.

The abutment is what holds the post and crown together. The connection created by the abutment reinforces the post and crown, making them even stronger and permanent (but removable by a doctor). The best part is that these begin supporting your new teeth shortly after your surgery.

The post is a medical-grade titanium screw that serves as an artificial root for your new teeth. The advantages of medical-grade titanium are that it doesn’t corrode and it has properties that help it fuse permanently with human bones. As an added bonus, modern dental implants now only require four to six posts to restore an entire arch.

Teeth In A Day

Our Teeth in a Day procedure is designed to permanently replace all of your teeth on a single arch, using 4-6 total implants for replacement of both the upper and lower arch. Why four to six implants? While it might be conceivable to use more or fewer, our clinicians have found this to be the optimal number.

Try thinking of a roadway bridge: The engineer who designs it doesn’t put a support column under every inch, only enough columns to successfully carry the weight of the bridge, plus any other forces exerted on it. In a similar way, this is the same way your new smile will be architected.

Multiple Implant Treatment

Multiple implant treatment is an ideal option for candidates who are in the beginning stages of failing teeth. Even with good dental care, many older patients face the loss of multiple teeth as they age. Having many missing teeth is not only a problem for how you look and feel, but can also be detrimental to your health. Replacing these teeth is critical to maintaining the rest of your oral health.

It is important to note that while it may appear that there are only a few missing teeth, depending on the condition of your jawbone, the Teeth in a Day treatment may be necessary. This is because bone deterioration can happen under the gum, and may not even be noticeable.

Single Implant Treatment

If you have lost a single tooth due to an accident or from periodontal disease, that one tooth can be easily replaced using a dental implant. To replace a single tooth, a dental implant is inserted into the site where the tooth is missing. The implant serves as a replacement for the root of the missing tooth.

A small post called an abutment is then connected to the implant, and a replacement tooth is cemented on top of the abutment. Your new tooth will look and function just like your other natural teeth.

FAQs: More About Dental Implants

What are dental implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts that are surgically implanted into one’s jawbone. They function similarly to the roots of your tooth structure, securing and stabilizing a single crown, a bridge, a full arch denture, or a higher-end reconstruction.

How can denture wearers benefit from implants?

Dentures can come unglued and float around on your gums. Denture wearers frequently encounter difficulties while eating, speaking, and having conversations with others, and they discover that their dentures are less secure and predictable than their natural teeth. Denture implants can help patients who are experiencing these difficulties eat and speak more authoritatively. This is especially beneficial for the lower denture, which is less secure.

Because implants replace tooth roots in the jaw bone, the bone remains more healthy and full over time, and the facial structure remains more intact. This halts the process of premature aging, which occurs even when dentures are worn.

How do implants protect against bone loss?

When you lose a tooth, you begin to lose bone. Your jaw bone can recede nearly a quarter inch in the first year after losing a tooth. Without the support of your teeth and facial bones, your face will start to look older than it is. Tooth replacement with dental implants helps to prevent bone loss, allowing you to look younger.

Will my dental implants resemble my actual teeth or smile?

The majority of patients find that implants are the best possible solution for replacing missing teeth. Affordable Dental Implants practices provide a variety of options for creating a new, natural-looking smile that restores much of your chewing ability and helps to prevent further bone loss. Your dentist can assist you in determining which solutions are best for you.

Is it possible to get a single tooth implant?

Yes, Affordable Dental Implants provides a variety of implant solutions, ranging from single tooth implants to the All-In-One Solution, an implant-supported fixed denture that is the most similar to your natural teeth.

Is it expensive to get implants?

Implants are an investment in the future health of your jaw bone and facial structure, as well as in your eating, smiling, interacting, and living. Implants are more expensive than dentures alone, but the advantages can be life-changing. Affordable Dental Implants provides implants at prices that are frequently significantly lower than those of other providers.

Are dental implants approved by the FDA?

Yes, the US Food and Drug Administration approved implants for the first time in 1982. Dentists have been providing them to patients for decades. The Fda has approved product authorization for long-term treatment based on rigorous clinical testing.

Is it possible for me to get dental implants? What about same-day surgery?

Your health status, bone mass, and other variables all play a role in determining whether dental implants are right for you. Your dentist will consult with you to determine the best tooth replacement options for you.
