A lot of the time, the implant is placed, and then the incision is stitched over. After a few months, a second surgery takes place to install the abutment. This is typically done if bone grafting is needed to ensure the stability of the implant. In other situations, a longer implant is placed in a single surgery. Ultimately, it all depends on your unique case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Number of Implants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The more implants you have placed, the more your procedure will cost. This is one of many reasons why people who are missing multiple teeth may opt for fewer dental implants or an alternate tooth replacement option, such as dentures or dental bridges. Discuss your different options with your dentist to create a plan that meets your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Additional Oral Surgeries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you need to have additional surgeries before having dental implants placed, you\u2019ll ultimately be paying more to restore the health and appearance of your smile. For instance, some patients need to have an extraction, while others may need a sinus lift or bone graft before the placement procedure takes place. These treatments will all add up to the overall cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Location of Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It generally costs more to replace a front tooth because it requires additional attention to detail to match the exact angle of your jawbone. Depending on the location of your missing teeth, additional techniques may be needed to ensure that your implant is placed precisely in the perfect spot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Overall Oral Health<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are dealing with a dental problem already, like gum disease, this will need to be treated ahead of time. There also may need to be additional precautions taken to cater to these issues. They can add up to your overall cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these factors are there to ensure that you have the most successful dental implant placement possible. By investing in dental implants, you are investing in the future of your smile!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Fort Dental, we have a team of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortdentaltx.com\/meet-the-doctors.html\">three skilled dentists<\/a> proud to serve the Fort Worth area.
