To achieve these benefits, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dixhillsdentist.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> require a multi-step process that plans over the course of several months. They also have a higher upfront cost than other tooth replacement options, like dentures. Continue reading to learn about the different factors that contribute to the cost of dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Type of Dental Implant<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several ways that dental implants can be placed. In many cases, a dental implant is placed, and then the incision is stitched over. After a few months, a second surgery takes place to install the abutment. This is typically done if bone grafting is needed to ensure the stability of the dental implant. In other scenarios, a longer dental implant can be placed in a single surgery. This all depends on your unique case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Number of Dental Implants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The more dental implants that you need, the more that your procedure will cost. This is one of the many reasons why people who are missing multiple teeth may choose fewer dental implants or another tooth replacement option entirely. Discuss your options with your dentist during your consultation so a plan can be customized for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Procedures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to have preliminary procedures before you get dental implant, this will incur its own cost. For instance, some patients need a tooth extraction, bone grafting, a sinus lift, or another procedure to prepare their mouth to support dental implants. Having a strong, healthy jawbone and other surrounding structures are needed to support healthy dental implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Location of the Tooth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally speaking, it costs much more to replace a front tooth because it requires additional care to match the exact angle of the jawbone. Depending on the location of your missing teeth, additional techniques may be needed to ensure that your implant is placed in just the right spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Oral Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are dealing with dental issues, including gum disease, tooth decay, or another issue, these ailments need to be addressed and eliminated ahead of time. Additional precautions may also need to be taken to cater to these issues. This can add to the overall cost of your treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you are considering the cost of your dental implant, remember to take all of the factors above into consideration. By choosing dental implants, you will be showing off a complete smile in just a matter of time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Dix Hills Family Dentistry, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dixhillsdentist.com\/meet-dr-raj-gaur.html\">Dr. Raj Gaur<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dixhillsdentist.com\/meet-dr-shubha-soni-gaur.html\">Dr. Shubha Soni-Gaur<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dixhillsdentist.com\/meet-dr-peter-lo.html\">Dr. Peter Lo<\/a> work together to treat patients in the Dix Hills community.
