Dental implants are one of three forms of tooth replacement, the others being dentures and fixed
bridgework. While dental implants cost are a consideration for patients, dental implants are often chosen because implants function much more like natural teeth.
Where bridgework uses adjacent teeth and
dentures rest on the gums for support, implants are
secured to the jaw and are the strongest and most stable means of replacing
missing teeth. An added benefit of implants is they provide a foundation for stabilizing jaw mass when bone loss has
occurred. Dental implants are the preferred method of tooth replacement for patients seeking the closest thing to natural teeth,
enjoying superior form and function. In concert with your dentist,
the decision as to what form of treatment is most suitable is
based on your individual circumstances and diagnosis.
 When dental implants are selected by the patient numerous benefits accrue to
the individual. First and foremost, dental implants are a long lasting, low maintenance form of tooth replacement.
Where dentures and bridgework require varying
degrees of care, dental implants function exactly like natural teeth.
Affixed to the jaw by a titanium post(s), implants are the most secure and stable form of tooth replacement.
The bone fuses with the titanium post through a process known as osseointegration creating
the strongest possible foundation for a replacement tooth or teeth.
Fusion of the bone to the implant’s post avoids future
bone loss and deterioration. Bone loss cannot be avoided
when dentures or fixed bridgework are used. Once
the dental implant is fused to the jawbone a crown is created,
fitted and permanently cemented in place.
Crowns will improve appearance and ensure the proper bite,
often superior to the patient’s natural teeth. Dental implants require no special care or maintenance.
Dental implants can be used to replace a single tooth or multiple
teeth. Dr. Caputo offers three forms of radiography, including I-CAT,
i.e. open CT scans. Not common in an office setting, the I-CAT open CT
is the ideal tool when preparing for dental implants.
State of the art, I-CAT, open CT scanning and 3-D software
are used to diagnose complex situations and plan advanced forms of
treatment. The I-CAT open CT has proven invaluable in countless implant procedures.
It should be noted dental implants can also be
used to secure partials or dentures.
If the patient is missing several teeth, particularly molars, it may be
preferable to place one or more implants to secure a full or partial denture.
This gives the partial more stability and resulting in a stronger
and more natural bite. Before undertaking a course of
treatment it is recommended patients undergo an initial examination and review with Dr.
Caputo a "Personal Care Plan". This process is an opportunity to gather information, make known your preferences and
oral health priorities. Dr. Caputo’s aim is always the same, to provide the most appropriate avenue of care while treating the underlying condition. For Dr.
Caputo’s part - timing, number of visits, and costs are always included in the conversation. 3 Interested in a Consultation? 96 for a Comprehensive Examination and Consultation.
When an adult has a tooth missing, the rest of your teeth and
jaw suffer because there is something out of place.
Now, with a large gap between teeth things tend to
shift over time. Firstly, it affects the way your jaw closes, called the bite relationship.
Secondly and more importantly, the remaining teeth slowly slide,
drift, and shift into new positions that are not comfortable or functional.
Another important problem to address is the deterioration of the jaw bone when there is no tooth in place to stimulate the bone.
Over longer periods of time without replacing the missing teeth, your overall face structure changes and makes
you look older than you really are.
It often makes you look as if your face is shrunken in. As
you will soon discover, replacing missing teeth is one of the best
ways to keep your whole mouth healthy and maintain your facial structure.
Always replace teeth as soon as they are lost. This will ensure
that you won't have any of the problems that are listed above and will keep you happy and healthy for the years ahead.
How much do Dental
Implants Cost? Most Dental Implant practices do you a great favor and make the first consultation free.
That is a given. When you're not sure about your exact needs, it's
so important to be free from having to pay a consulting fee.
There may be some really stingy dental practices out there that will charge a fee, but most won't.
Next, to accurately determine if you qualify, that is - if you have enough existing bone in your
jaw, you are required to have a mouth examination and an x-ray.
3000 just for one tooth. I know, it's pretty expensive. Due to the fact that dental
implants are such an expensive cosmetic surgery, implant dental offices most often provide financing options or easier way to pay
for your dental implants over time. Some work with insurance companies and others have
their own credit program that functions pretty much like a credit card.
In the end, you'll need to consult your dental office
to see what financing options they provide but most of the time, there are
great options available.
As mentioned before, there is a waiting period wherein you're jawbone accepts the titanium implant and the
two fuse together. After this waiting time, you're able
to have your crown or bridge added on top of the dental implant.
3000 for every tooth. If there's one thing
that I've taken away from all the information provided here is that Implant Dentistry is not cheap.
But I've seen a handful of people get them and the result is
so close to the real thing that it makes sense that they would pay so much for it.
Consider the fact that you get a new tooth that looks and functions just like the one
you had before. That's a miracle and something that is priceless in some people's eyes.
How much does all-on-4 dental implant cost?
13,500 per arch for teeth-in-a-day with all-on-4 dental implants.
This treatment cost are for patients who have failing teeth,
bad teeth, broken caps and bridges, missing teeth
and don't want dentures. We have been on an epic ride ever since we have pioneered several ALL-ON-4 techniques for better
care. 8,000 per arch when all the treatment is
completed in our office. Our fees are much lower when compared to a two-location approach,
where both doctors from two locations would charge separate fees, significantly increasing the total cost of treatment.
In general, all-on-4 dental implants treatment (also known as AO4) and most of the lab work is
performed in-house for a full mouth of teeth-in-a-day.
Nevertheless, in many cases when extensive lab work is required, the
set of teeth is delivered in 24 hours. We are looking forward to listening
to your unique dental situation and help you get your smile back so you can eat and speak with a
high degree of confidence. Dr. Max Arocha enjoys very much helping patients get their smile back with all-on-4 dental
implants. He spends several hours every week replying to
emails, aswering phone calls, reviewing x-rays
received in the mail, performing free exams and
countless complementary consultation services. Additional all-on-4 cost depends on several factors including the system and type of
teeth the patients may want as a full mouth permanent dental implant-supported fixed bridge for
teeth-in-a-day replacement.
These full mouth fixed bridges can be made out of zirconia or
a combination of acrylic teeth over a titanium framework (known as hybrid permanent bridges).
A zirconia permanent implant-supported fixed bridge is occasionally recommended for strength and durability.
A combination of using permanent acrylic teeth over a titanium
framework (often called a hybrid permanent bridge also known as a full mouth restoration with implants) is preferred for control, durability and repairability.
Keep in mind that there may also be some additional procedures required prior to the placement of teeth-in-a-day with all-on-4 to ensure
its long-term success rate. Additional procedures may be required including controling any broken caps,
failing bridge work and gum infection prior to surgery.
In general, teeth-in-a-day over 4 dental implants often results in lower cost, making it more affordable, because it allows for
fewer dental implants being placed versus traditional dental
implant for full mouth reconstruction. Teeth-in-a-day
treatment option is a cost-effective procedure for those people suffering from failing teeth,
bad teeth and broken caps and bridges. Even people who have no teeth and are wearing
loose-fitting dentures are great candidates.
