Question: I want to get dental implants, but every time I go to a dentist I get frustrated with the lack of details regarding the time and price of the procedure. I am missing my front right tooth(if you are facing me) and the two immediate teeth to the right of it. They always say im a good candidate but never give me a price. I will not hold you to any figures but can you give me a ball park figure of the cost of surgery.
Dr. Samuels: If you are missing 3 upper teeth in a row, you will probably require 2 implants. The average cost of surgery is about $4000 and the average cost to replace the teeth (3 unit implant bridge) is about $4500. Keep in mind that each case is unique and depending on many factors these costs could be higher or lower.
