The Cost and Effectiveness of Dental Implants vs Removable Teeth

[fiLthy_Rx]

$6-7k per tooth for a dental implant is by far the highest pricing I've heard for that to date.

WTF that’s just robbery, should feel ashamed charging people those prices .

[stevenworld]

They shouldn't be more than a grand a tooth.

Check your local dental schools! Implants were only 1000 at the local dental school. Maybe worth checking out for those on a budget! It takes 3x as long as normal but the work is usually double checked by a teacher.

Im sorry, but this should be covered under standard health insurance. Oral issues can cause infections, and can even kill you... They affect your ability to eat, drink, live a normal life, and is one of the most common issues people can face. This is highway robbery, and dentists charging this much should be ashamed of themselves. It should be mandatory that there is programs to help people that can't afford this work. Absolutely RIDICULOUS pricing! So much for the hypocratic oath.

It cost them1/2 the price to get the materials !! Then they over price the consumers!!!

[tonyd]

and this is the problem with American dental association. Noone can afford this

[tuckemmons]

I'm sorry the price of teeth it's not fair

[kristinamercado]

Going to Cancun Mexico to get this done. Literally saving well over half than here in the US.
Plus you get a free trip lol

[Fred]

Where is this guy getting his prices 😂😂😂😂

[sassysandygirl]

This is why most people have broken and missing teeth. This is just so messed up. It shouldn't cost 6K to get a tooth. SHAME on anyone who would charge that..

[Darrengriffiths]

expensive that's how they are all the way till they get infected or wear down from implants posts abutments or all on four not to mention yearly cleaning or adjustment and post treatment etc only have manufactured 20 year warranty but not a 20 year warranty inside your mouth and the upper and lowers wear down after 5-7 years where some people I know have had normal dentures for over 25 years like my mum, idk anyone that's had implants that haven't caused them tremendous pain discomfort a shitload of money $50.000.00 and one guy I knew he's implants only lasted a few years the crown on the implant kept on breaking in the end he paid all this money only to have it removed then eventually got dentures now no pain at all and way cheaper, implants do not cost $12-$18 for snap on and excess of $45.000.00 for all on four or all on six my sister used to be a dental technician in lab and delivery and they do not cost no where near the price they are asking dentist make a lot of money and they will not help you unless you can pay it off in 6 months only other options is to get finance for something that isn't even guaranteed to last, or even for you 2 be a good candidate and if you smoke you must quit for atleast 2-4 months so they don't get infected etc but a dentist will always make things sound so great because at end of day it's a product and there a business man and want to make as much money off you ass possible they simply don't care about people individually or what a person goes through having broken missing teeth. so make it more affordable charge proper prices and understand people don't have that sort of money just lying around even insurance companies cover Jack shit you know it I know it so bloody help people nothing worse than being in pain or embarrassed to even leave the house let alone work eat talk and communicate with people...

Dentist are criminals if you ask me that “tube” of dentist paste can what repair 200 teeth? And it costs $300 I got one tooth pulled and it cost me $550 in Canada you could probably pay for everything in your dentist office in half a days work the guy took what 3 minutes to pull my tooth? So poor families have to go through absolute torture for months or years maybe their entire life because they can’t afford to fix their teeth! That’s $500 for a tooth pulled no teeth filling paste used, but a tooth can cost up to $2, 000 to $5, 000 to get fixed if you need a root canal. It should be under medical insurance. Not a different insurance called dental insurance.

Thank you!! Finally a dentist that’s being truthful about the price of dental implant, you always see two to $3000/per and that’s just not true I got nine dental implants this past year for an implant supported denture and all in $26, 000 later I have teeth that don’t fall out!!

[annayemdin]

This is even hard to talk about. I’ve been watching you so I had gastric bypass and I became very very malnourished and all my teeth came out and it’s been very embarrassing but I can’t afford anyway and I’ve been walking around with fake teeth that I made myself which don’t work, it’s been a rough year with my mom’s passing and I don’t know if you ever guys do do just help a person it’s really hard for me to even ask but yeah I’m embarrass it raining. You guys do a great job.

[NicoleBrissette]

Tell me about it 2 years I’ve been suffering having no insurance and on SSDI it is joke, I can’t gain weight because I only can have liquid no one cares 😢

[MCKVX]

Crazy pricing that's even much more expensive than the UK

[SocialMedia-lzup]

A dentist in pasedena quoted about $2k for tooth extraction, total over $20k for 2 implants, I'm going to Mexico..

[doomsdaytaco]

this comment section shows just how little the average person knows about dental prosthetics

[DragoonRyRs]

people dont realize how bone shrinks which is scary. Goodluck with 30 individual implants and 10% bone
