Dental Implants: Aren’t They Too Expensive?

Have you seen that some of your friends have chosen dental implants for themselves after experiencing tooth loss? Are you curious about how they afforded them and why so many people choose them over other possibilities, since you’ve always been under the impression that they are too expensive? We encourage you to think about costs in multiple ways (and to speak with us soon) before you assume this is a fact!

Consider Expenses For Other Things

Think about what you may do if you choose something other than dental implants. You may decide on a dental bridge, a partial denture, or a full denture, depending upon your extent and type of tooth loss. As years go by, you will need to replace these prosthetics multiple times. This is not the case with implants, which can last for the rest of your life. It may be worth speaking with us about the particulars regarding cost, as over the long haul, implants can prove to be a more conservative financial decision than you realize!

Consider The Physical Cost

Remember that if you choose to avoid replacing your teeth, you can end up dealing with some side effects that will be personally costly to you! For instance, if you are in need of replacement for five teeth but you choose to ignore this need, you may end up with jaw deterioration throughout that area. This can leave you with an altered appearance, less robust oral health, and may complicate matters in the future, should you choose to place dental implants (you may require bone grafting, which will mean addition care and additional costs).
