DENTAL IMPLANT, WHAT ARE THE COSTS?
While a basic dental implant is typically $1,250 to $3,000, depending on your circumstances additional costs for things such as in the case of a posterior mandible, bone regeneration, sinus elevation, and wide diameter or narrow diameter implants can quickly escalate depending on the procedure for the upper or lower jaw. – DENTAL IMPLANT, WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE? Dental implants are usually completed in two phases: * Phase #1 is the actual dental implant placement, a process generally performed in the office with local anesthesia or light sedation to help make the patient more comfortable. * Phase #2 involves creating and attaching the new tooth or teeth to the anchored dental implant(s) in your jaw. – DENTAL IMPLANT, HOW LONG DO THEY LAST? The overall success rates in natural bone is 95%, though this falls to between 85 and 90% in grafted bone. If a patient smokes it has been shown that they are statistically two and a half times more likely to have an implant fail than a nonsmoker. GRA
