Severely decayed or chipped teeth can cause multiple problems for your oral health and overall wellbeing. Not only do they affect your smile, but can also cause issues with chewing, speaking, and your oral hygiene. If your tooth needs to be extracted because it can no longer be saved, consider dental implant treatment to restore your smile. A dental implant is a permanent replacement solution for a severely damaged tooth.
Consider arranging a dental consultation near you to discuss if you are a candidate for this innovative dental procedure and learn more about dental implant treatment and what dental implants cost.
What is a Dental Implant Treatment?
Dental implant treatment is the process of installing dental implants in a patient with chipped, missing, or broken teeth. Dental implants consist of a small titanium screw inserted into your jawbone. Once secured to your jawbone, the dental implant holds a natural-coloured artificial tooth, which replaces your chipped tooth for a radiant smile.
Total Care Dental Studio offers patients a digital dental implant treatment. This advanced option has several advantages over the traditional dental implant treatment process.
Digital dental implants use 3D computer-guided technology to implant the titanium dental implant into your gums in as little as 15 minutes. Due to the accuracy of virtual implant technology, you experience less discomfort during dental implant treatment. There’s also the benefit of reduced healing time and long-term stability once the dental crown is placed on your dental implant.
How Much Do Dental Implants Cost?
If you are considering dental implants, you may wonder, “how much do dental implants cost?” Total dental implant cost is based on how many teeth you have replaced.
Dental implants cost anywhere from hundreds to thousands of dollars depending on whether you have one or many teeth replaced. Some estimates put the dental implant cost between $3,000 to $7,000 per tooth. How much dental implants cost varies considerably based on your location and the procedure and materials your dentist uses.
When considering dental implant cost, it is helpful to understand that dental implants act as permanent teeth. If taken care of, dental implants can last over 20 years.
How to Pay for Dental Implants?
Total Care Dental Studio offers payment plans to help with dental implant cost so you can restore your smile without worrying over how much your dental implants cost upfront. We also accept private health funds such as HCF, NIB, BUPA, and CBHS and major credit card payments.
However, if these funds do not cover you, you may consider covering your dental implant cost through zipMoney, Ezi-Pay, or the National Dental Plan.
To learn more about how much dental implants cost, schedule a meeting with a dentist that offers consultations to discuss the specific costs and payment plans.
