Cheap dental implants in Hazel Crest, IL

Dental implants come in three main types: single, multiple and full mouth. Single implants are used to replace a single missing tooth; multiple implants support crowns or bridges for several teeth, while full-mouth replacements use up to eight individual implants for a complete set of false teeth.

Dental implants are costly due to several factors, including the specialized training and expertise required of dental professionals performing the procedure, the high-quality materials used such as titanium for the implant and ceramic for the crown, the advanced technology employed for precise placement, and the lengthy treatment process that often involves multiple appointments and stages. Additionally, dental insurance plans may not cover the full cost, further contributing to the expense.

We understand that dental implants can be a significant investment. To make them more affordable, we offer customized financing options, including low monthly payment plans, financing, and discounts for qualified patients. In addition, we accept various insurance plans and work closely with providers to maximize your benefits.

Dental implants do not hurt during the procedure as you are given a local anesthetic to numb the area where the implant will be placed. Afterwards, you may experience some minor discomfort from swelling and slight bruising which can be alleviated with over-the-counter pain medication. Generally, very little or no pain is experienced with dental implant surgery.

Alternative treatments to dental implants include fixed bridges that put surrounding teeth in jeopardy, removable dentures which are unstable and difficult to speak or eat with, partial crowns on existing teeth in order to support replacement tooth/teeth, resin-bonded bridging for select cases when there is minimal abutment tooth decay.
