Many dentists consider dental implants<\/a> to be the gold standard of tooth replacements because they\u2019re the only restorations that are embedded directly into your jawbone. As a result, they provide many unique advantages over alternatives like dental bridges and dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, they also tend to be more costly because they involve a surgical component. If you\u2019re worried about affording your artificial teeth, continue reading to learn more about four factors that can potentially impact their price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Consideration #1: How Many Are Needed<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental implants are a versatile solution that can be paired with different types of prosthetics to refurbish your smile after suffering tooth loss. If it\u2019s replacing a single tooth, it\u2019s usually capped with a dental crown. That said, two or more can also be placed as abutments on either side of a dental bridge or to anchor a full set of dentures. Those getting several implants can typically expect to pay more than those who only need one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consideration #2: The Material Used<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Like any other products, dental implants are made by different manufacturers who use different materials, and this can influence the pricing structure. For instance, the support pole is usually made from titanium because it\u2019s biocompatible, incredibly strong, and light weight. However, it can also be comprised of gold, steel, or other options that tend to be less expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The restoration it supports is often created from resilient ceramic, but zirconia (which costs more) is also a popular choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consideration #3: How It\u2019s Made<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dental technology and techniques are constantly evolving, which has led to updated methods for many different services. Historically, being fitted with a dental crown over your implant required that your dentist manually make impressions and take X-rays and other images of your mouth to send to a dental laboratory to create your prosthetic. Today, many providers offer same-day restorations using CEREC or other similar advanced computer programs and have virtual imaging techniques that can impact the total due.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consideration #4: Other Procedures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before you can proceed with this treatment, you must consult your dentist to ensure no preexisting issues will interfere with your results. If they find signs of cavities or gum disease, they must treat those first. Other patients need a bone graft procedure to bulk up their jawbone to a sufficient density to sustain their implants. Whatever the case, you\u2019re expected to cover each additional service required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that you know more about how different variables impact the final amount owed for your dental implants, you can make informed decisions to stick to your budget!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
