What does stay constant across all patients, though, is the quality of tooth replacement that you will receive. Dental implants and the prosthetic teeth that are affixed on top are always made of high-quality materials that will last for years to come. What\u2019s more, because dental implants\u00a0are placed surgically, you will be visiting only the most highly educated and trained professionals to have the treatment completed. All of this adds up to extreme quality\u2026 and a price that reflects the value of this investment as well.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The total cost of your dental implants will vary based on the following factors:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How many teeth you are missing<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where in the jaw the teeth are located<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What material the implant posts are made of<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether or not you need to have a bone graft or sinus lift performed before the dental implants can be placed<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Special considerations for sedation and\/or anesthesia that may need to be made<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Make Dental Implants More Affordable<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whatever the cost of a dental implant procedure, most patients are surprised to find that they eventually end up being a highly affordable option once longevity and quality are considered. Dental implants can be expected to last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance, so you will not have to worry about getting frequent and costly replacements. Plus, implants keep your jaw bone healthy to prevent the loss of additional teeth as well. <\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During a dental implant consultation, you and your implant dentist can also discuss methods for making dental implants more affordable. Financing options are available through third-party groups like CareCredit, and dental insurance may even cover a portion of a dental implant procedure. <\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only way to find out exactly what your dental implant procedure will cost is to visit with your implant dentist. But whatever it is, remember that dental implants are well worth the investment for a beautiful and long-lasting smile! <\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meet the Practice<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Steve Koo and Dr. Tom Weil offer excellence in implant dentistry through their dental implant practice.
