If you have missing or damaged teeth, your dentist has probably discussed replacing them with dental implants. Dental implants provide a teeth replacement solution that lasts longer, supports your jaw bone health, and improves your quality of life. Remember these key benefits when looking at the cost of dental implants in Asheville, NC.
Cost of Dental Implants
Dental implants will cost more than dentures and dental bridges. This is because they are a sophisticated solution for tooth loss. No other option will deliver false teeth that function, feel, and look like natural teeth. An implant-supported restoration will replace your teeth at the root and not just the crown portion of your tooth.
So how much will my dental implants cost? Unfortunately, that is not a simple question with a simple answer. Everyone has different needs and circumstances. Every patient will have to undergo a thorough evaluation with their dentist.
Then, the dentist will create a customized treatment plan for their needs. The treatment plan will give you an idea of the cost of treatment. Many factors can impact your final bill.
List of Factors that Will Impact Your Implant Treatment
Estimating the cost of your dental implant treatment depends on several factors. Since no two patients are alike, you can expect your bill to differ from another patient’s. Things that will affect your treatment cost include:
- Number of missing teeth
- Location of missing teeth
- Size and type of dental implants
- Will you need any teeth extracted?
- Do you require a bone graft?
- Which restoration(s) you will need
- The current state of your oral health
Cost of a Single Dental Implant
The total cost of a single dental implant will include labor, surgical needs, the dental implant fixture, the abutment, and the dental crown. The average cost is about $3,000 to $5,000. However, any of the above factors can impact this, and the cost could decrease or increase significantly.
Cost of Full-Mouth Dental Implants
Consult with a dentist or oral surgeon to get an accurate estimate for full-mouth implants. The dentist must take several things into consideration, so the cost can vary significantly. However, you should prepare to spend tens of thousands of dollars to replace both arches of teeth. On average, full-mouth dental implants can cost anywhere from $20,000 to $45,000 or more.
Will My Dental Insurance Cover Dental Implants?
Figuring out what dental insurance plans do and do not cover can be frustrating. Dental implants are an elective service that most insurance providers don’t help with. However, most dental insurance providers will offer some type of coverage for part of the treatment.
For example, your provider will likely offer some dental restoration coverage. We suggest you call your provider to discuss what they will cover and won’t cover regarding dental implant treatment.
