Cheap dental implants in Highland Park, IL

Dental implants come in three types: single, multiple and full mouth. Single is used to replace one tooth; multiple replace several teeth or have their gaps filled; and a full mouth replacement requires replacing all existing teeth with one arch of implants.

Dental implants carry a high price tag due to several factors, including the advanced technology and materials used, the expertise of dental professionals, and the multi-stage process involved. High-quality titanium or ceramic implants are costly, and the specialized training required for dentists performing the procedure adds to the expense. Additionally, the multi-stage process, often involving bone grafts and healing periods, results in higher overall treatment costs.

We understand that dental implants can be a significant investment, which is why we're committed to making them more affordable. By offering flexible financing options, including payment plans and extended terms, we help patients fit implants into their budgets. Additionally, we accept most insurance plans and provide transparent pricing, ensuring you know upfront what your costs will be.

Dental implant procedures do not hurt during the procedure, as both local anesthesia and/or sedation are available to numb any pain. On rare occasions, discomfort may be experienced afterwards due to swelling of the gums or in areas where tension is needed for proper healing. To ensure comfort throughout your dental implant experience, your dentist will discuss anesthetics and other medications with you beforehand.

Alternatives to dental implants include bridges, dentures, and fillings. Bridges are synthetic teeth that connect two existing teeth while holding a space made by the missing tooth. Dentures are removable and prosthetic replacements for lost or missing teeth. Fillings fill in the gap within a decaying or chipped tooth with composite material such as resin or ceramic to help restore functionality of that particular tooth.
