Financing Information

 

The Cost of Not Getting Dental Implants

Despite the initial costs, generally speaking you get ‘more bang for the buck,’ so to speak, with dental implants than you do with other restorative dentistry treatments. Implants, for instance, can last a lifetime, while removable partial dentures and dental bridges need to be replaced every 7–9 years. In other words, with dental implants, you’re much less likely to suffer from the recurring costs of the alternatives. Other areas where you save costs include:

  • Reduced risk of dental infection, saving you money by helping you avoid composite dental fillings, dental bonding, root canal therapy, and gum tissue grafting.

  • Whereas removable dentures can accelerate bone loss, dental implants help reverse and prevent it, saving you from the cost of future bone grafting for implants.

Dental implants are considered the ‘gold standard’ of modern restorative dentistry care because it can accomplish things that other treatments can’t. By helping to safeguard your smile from future tooth decay, gum disease, and bone loss, you help avoid spending money treating these dental problems. Over the long-run, it could very well turn out that the cost of dental implants was much less than that of removable dentures or dental bridges, even if the initial costs are higher.

Dental Insurance and Dental Implants

Only your insurer can tell you with any certainty whether it is willing to cover your dental implant treatment. Each insurer is different — some will not cover dental implants at all and others will cover only part of the treatment. Some insurers will only cover the costs of dental implants if the replaced tooth was lost after the beginning of the policy. For the best answer, it’s best to call your insurer and ask.

At the Charlotte Dental Implant Center, we can help. Our staff is more than happy to help you figure out what your insurance policy covers and we can also help to file your claim. Just bring your insurance card with you next time you visit our Charlotte, NC, office.
