These durable replacements are the only ones that are placed directly in your jaw, and tend to cost more upfront than alternative solutions, such as denture or bridges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s natural to wonder how much your treatment might cost, but the answer can vary depending on your unique circumstances. Continue reading to learn more about 3 things that can potentially affect the price of your procedure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #1: Preliminary Treatments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These prosthetics are placed directly in your jaw and eventually fuse with the bone through a process of osseointegration. However, they might fail if your jawbone is too frail to support them or if you don\u2019t have sufficiently healthy gum tissues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a result, some patients require additional services, such as gum disease therapy or a bone graft procedure, to improve their dental condition enough to continue with their elective service. If you\u2019re unsure whether you\u2019ll need additional procedures, your dentist can discuss these details with you once they\u2019ve examined your mouth and can determine whether you\u2019re a good candidate to proceed. &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #2: How Many You Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dental implants can be a versatile way to replace some or all of your missing teeth. For example, if you\u2019ve only lost one, then a single post placed in your jaw can anchor a dental crown to close the gap in your grin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But if you have experienced more significant tooth loss, two to eight implants can be strategically positioned to support larger restorations, such as special bridges or dentures, that remain in your mouth more permanently. If you require multiples, you\u2019ll have to cover the cost of the additional materials and time needed to place them. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #3: How They\u2019re Made<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like most dental restorations, implants can be made from different materials, which can potentially affect your final invoice. For instance, they can be created from durable but lightweight titanium or biocompatible ceramic, like zirconia, which has its own associated costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might feel tempted to choose the least expensive options, but remember, the quality of your treatment is often reflected in its price. It\u2019s often worth investing in well-made replacement teeth that last longer, so you can continue to make the most of their many unique advantages over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re unsure how much you might have to pay for dental implants, you can learn more by scheduling an appointment with your dentist!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At Holt Family Dentistry, patients of all ages benefit from two dentists who are passionate about helping them build beautiful, healthy smiles.
