Case Description
Due to considerable dental problems over the years and possibly a systemic problem with immune system, I opted to have the few teeth I had left extracted on the top and am left with a denture. I really dislike wearing a denture and continue to have difficulty with proper fit and eating. I have been considering having multiple dental implants with an attached denture, but the estimate provided by a local oral surgeon was far beyond my current financial situation. I would like to explore alternatives and cost estimates with other dental practitioners who work with implants. I had a very successful dental implant about five years ago, but it had to be removed after the extractions were done due to severe infection. I really loved the implant and the way it seemed like a real tooth. I am already missing three lower right molars and the wisdom tooth, so I would like to explore alternatives in that area as well.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.
