Improve your life with dental implants
We encourage all patients to consider dental implants to be an investment in their smile. Since they are a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, they improve the quality of the smile and also prevent many problems associated with tooth loss, such as excessive bone loss, jaw problems, and other oral health issues. Dr. Wheeler has completed advanced dental implant training and is a member of the International Implant Association. You can rest assured that you will be getting your new teeth from an experienced and talented professional.
Factors that determine dental implant cost
Many patients are curious about the cost of dental implants. The final cost is dependent on several factors, including the amount of bone available to support the implant. If you have significant bone loss or do not have enough bone in the upper jaw, Dr. Wheeler may perform a bone graft or sinus lift to ensure optimal implant placement. Some of the factors that determine dental implant cost include:
- Number of teeth being placed
- Bone grafting procedure prior to placement
- Sinus lift prior to placement
- Tooth extractions needed
- Ridge augmentation
- Ridge preservation
- Severity of the case
