What are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is one option for replacing your missing tooth. These implants are manufactured devices that are surgically placed in your upper or lower jaw, that act as anchors for replacement teeth. Implants are made of titanium as well as other materials that are compatible with our bodies.
You can get dental implants in as little as a single day. It’s a three-part process that includes:
- Implanting a screw to your jawbone
- Attaching an abutment
- Covering up said abutment
The use of a screw assist in the Osseointegration stage. It is where the treated area has new bone cells growing and it firmly holds it in place. It makes sure that enough support is given to the tooth replacement. Dental implants support crowns, bridges, and dentures.
The Benefits Of Dental Implants
One huge benefit is the tooth’s ability to blend in, even if it’s the only one being replaced. Quality materials are not compromised, even with affordable dental implants. Some people with several tooth loss suffer from a somewhat distorted appearance since the support for the cheeks and lips has given in. At Dentists of Jupiter Farms, we make sure your replacement tooth fixes that problem.
If you have been using dentures, you understand how choosy you may have to be with your food. Dental implants will have more freedom. Losing a tooth in a visible place can be discouraging, but with the help of teeth supported by implants, you can cast off any feeling of embarrassment.
A tooth loss alters your appearance due to bone loss experienced in your jaw. When we restore those features, it will give back the support for your cheeks and lips, as well as smooth out any lines and wrinkles that have been caused by it.
How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?
As with any other dental procedure, the cost of a dental implant can vary based on a number of factors. The average cost of a dental implant in Florida can range from $2,500 to $6,000 but typically starts around the $3700 price point. In some cases, dental insurance may provide full or partial benefits toward a dental implant, but the majority do not. It’s always best to check with your insurance provider before we start the procedure.
Initially, the cost of dental implants in FL may seem like a higher investment than a denture or a bridge. The upfront cost difference can make the other options seem more attractive. However, a dental implant, if taken care of properly, can last a lifetime. Since a bridge or denture may need to be replaced sooner, they can actually cost more money over time making dental implants the more affordable option in the long run.
What Our Clients Say
I had some major work that needed to be done right away. They made an appointment for me within days of my call so I didn’t have to wait long to see them. Dr. Dan and his team were very professional and polite. The work was done painlessly and quickly. I would highly recommend them and plan to continue using them in the future.
