Dental Implant Cost

Dental implants with Dr. Michael Robertson are considered a more cost-effective tooth replacement compared to traditional treatments because they’re more durable and functional, and they don’t cause the health complications that other methods do. Although north Mississippi dental implant cost will vary among patients, here are some basic factors to keep in mind.

Number of dental implants required.

Dental implants can replace one missing tooth or many teeth. The more implants you need, the higher your north Mississippi dental implant cost is. Additional materials and time are required for multiple implants, including the added time needed to determine areas in your mouth where you have good bone density.

Bone loss

Dental implants need bone to function. The cost of dental implants depends on how much bone you have left in your jaw. Bone loss is common among patients whose teeth have been missing for a long time, and a bone graft is often necessary before getting dental implants. Bone grafting is a separate procedure that will increase the cost of dental implants.

Different treatments

There are different procedures for dental implants and the costs vary. Regular dental implants, implant- supported dentures, All-on-4 dental implants and dental bridges all come with different costs. Dr. Robertson would need to determine which procedure is best for you.

Sinus lift

A sinus lift is sometimes needed before getting dental implants. A sinus lift is a separate treatment that will increase north Mississippi dental implant cost.

Periodontal disease

Tooth loss is often caused by untreated gum disease. Dental implants work best after gum disease is treated. If you have gum disease, Dr. Robertson can cure it with a scaling and root planing procedure for early stage infection or laser gum surgery for more advanced stages. These procedures are billed separately.

Tooth extractions

Some patients have teeth that need to be removed before getting dental implants. This increases costs. If all the teeth are already missing and there’s enough bone to support dental implants, patients can have the dental implants placed right away without any added cost. But if bone is scant, a bone graft would be necessary, which adds to the total cost of dental implants.
