Yes, dental implants carry a higher cost than other tooth-loss solutions. However, any additional expense is offset by their durability and natural function and feel. Plus, many dental practices, like ours, are happy to work with you on a budget-friendly financial solution!
We accept most insurances, are in-network with Delta Dental, and work with third-party insurance provider Connection Dental. We also accept cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express, and offer zero-percent financing through CareCredit!
Oral Health Benefits of Dental Implants
Dental implants are vital to long-term oral and overall health. Unlike primarily cosmetic options like dentures or bridges, implants are anchored directly into the jawbone and act as natural feeling and functioning tooth roots. This provides a stable foundation for a long-term tooth replacement solution like a porcelain crown.
Also, implants provide stimulation to fend off the loss of jawbone density that often follows tooth loss. In doing this, they help keep adjacent teeth from shifting out of alignment.
Moreover, implants facilitate proper oral hygiene. Their placement doesn’t require the alteration of neighboring teeth, as is necessary with some bridges. And they are easier to clean than removable dentures. This helps reduce your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
Implants also contribute to long-term overall health by promoting a healthy bite. A complete set of functional teeth allows a person to chew their food thoroughly, which helps with digestion and nutrient absorption.
If all that’s not enough, with proper placement and care, a dental implant can last well over a decade without re-treatment!
