Cost of Dental Implants

Dental implants have revolutionized replacement dentistry, allowing people to enjoy the look and feel of natural teeth instead of missing or multiple teeth. However, many people in Long Island have been wary of opting for implants because they are concerned about the cost.

It’s true; dental implants can be expensive. However, many things go into the cost of dental implants, and they can be an excellent value over the years to come. Even more, your dentist offers plans to help make dental implants affordable and accessible.

Single Tooth Implants

You may be looking into a dental implant to replace one missing tooth. An implant provides a beautiful, natural look that makes it appear that no tooth was ever missing. You can talk, sing and eat normally. Keep in mind that each implant has a cost in itself, but the crown is another part of the implant procedure and may have a separate price. Make sure to talk to your dentist to make sure you understand the costs involved.

We want to make sure that you fully understand your dental implant procedures and we work hard to make them accessible for everyone. We’ll review your estimate before you begin so that you know what to expect.

Multiple Teeth Implants

There are different types of dental implant procedures to replace multiple teeth, whether a full-mouth implant or several teeth throughout the mouth. Your dentist will be able to provide you with a comprehensive estimate for an overall implant procedure, and prices can vary widely depending on the materials involved and the specific needs for your teeth and mouth.

Dental Implants Involve Surgery

If you’re wondering about the cost of dental implants in Long Island, it’s important to be aware that dental implants involve a surgical procedure. Multiple visits are involved, and expert oral surgeons are involved in your implants from b eginning to end.

BEFORE THE IMPLANT PROCEDURE BEGINS, YOU’LL NEED:

X-RAY OR CT SCAN

Important diagnostic tests that allow your dentist to ensure that your implant is precisely, correctly placed. Imaging is essential to successful implant placement.

1

BONE GRAFTING

Depending on the state of your jawbone, you may need a bone graft to complete your implants, itself a skilled, complex process.
(Of course, you may not need a bone graft at all.)

2

TOOTH EXTRACTION

If you have diseased, damaged teeth that need to be removed, you will need to have an extraction before your implants can be placed.

3 Dental Implant Materials

Dental implants are made from high-quality, biocompatible materials. They are designed to fuse precisely with your jaw for a permanent replacement for missing teeth. Implants may be made of zirconia or titanium, depending on your needs. Each implant is carefully fabricated to meet your needs, and each is comprised of several parts: The implant, the abutment, and the crown. Costs for each of these can vary depending on the choice of material and the specifications of your unique implant.

Dental Insurance?

You may be wondering if your dental insurance plan covers implants. Every insurance plan is different, and despite the vast quality of life improvement implants provide, some insurers consider them cosmetic. Other insurers may cover part of the cost. Contact your insurer to find out whether a portion of your implants may be covered.

  This is the best hospital I've ever been to!!! I've brought my daughter several times and they always took good care of her.  Yesterday was the first time for myself and I can honestly say they were the best team I've EVER had. The nurses are so polite and caring. The doctors on point.  I will never forget this experience. Plus the wait time was tolerable.  I was in and out of there in less than 6 hrs considering I also had a ctscan done. So yeah. Best ER !!!!

  I think this place is the best hospital for the emergency room. I been there three times and they have taken me quick every time and the nurses are all so nice. I’ve had three great experiences there. That’s better then Any other hospital on the island. Other hospitals ii have waited up to 6 hours and still never got seen. The place is great!

  They amazed me AGAIN!! I had been to Syosset Hospital for my right hip last August. I found the service to be Spectacular. Seamless from valet parking to taking my bags to the ambulette on my way to rehab.  Just finished my Left hip at Syosset. Intake, communication medical procedures and the food is off the charts!! Even The chef spent 20 minutes with me discussing the food concepts. where and why it is sourced and the anticipated boost of such quality to overall outcomes… WOW!!
Now the tricky parts: I was scheduled for an Ambulette which is not covered on my insurance (not sure why?) So hospital staff arranged the ride at about 2:40 pm and I was to call wheelchair Ambulette company at 3pm to pay $150. For service.. when I called the price became $325. I mentioned the price difference I’d been given but acquiesced to the $325 and gave my credit card expecting a ride at 5PM. Which was quickly pushed till 7pm at but nobody showed.  At 8:30 a women from the Ambulette company arrived with an “AMBuLANCE” not an Ambulette. She had a distinct attitude I imagine because she knew it was the wrong vehicle and when I questioned her the price was now $1500. Or “you’re here till Monday” she snorted. 3 extra days)
This was 100 % shakedown! The Hospital nurse overseeing the dispute interceded and stopped what was about to get loud! The nurse returned with Supervisor who with my approval dismissed the driver. The supervisor further assured me I had a place to sleep, (now at almost 10pm) and went through the process of communicating with the transport company who arranged for another ride the following day at noon.. BUT 30 minutes later he was contacted by the transport company and was informed they had a proper vehicle and if the client( me) would agree and we could get Intake approval at The Rehab center this late they (transport) would come and pick me up.
A short while later a young man name Trayvon arrived and rolled me into a nice clean Ambulette, strapped me in and delivered me directly to my room at Sterns Family Rehab In Manhasset.
Honestly, I was medicated and not up to the challenge of negotiating under duress only 24 hours post surgery but At every step of the challenging period the Syosset Hospital staff protected me, and represented me, their patient, with a quiet, beautiful professionalism that is hard to describe. Now I’m on my third day of therapy and My brother will drive me home.
When it’s done.

  With the hospital being so clean, the staff so pleasant and helpful and the excellent care I received from the nurses, anesthesiologist and my surgeon Dr. Morrison, I could not have wished for better.
