Case Description
I am looking for some dental implant work. I am missing the tooth number 6 I believe. I am looking to do this within my budget, which is basically medicare and social security. My crown broke about 2 years ago and I had a bridge. I have since lost my bridge and now have a gap. I'd like to have this fixed to regain my self confidence and be able to smile at my children and grandchildren again. Thank you.

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.

Cost Estimate: $ No Estimate at this time. Additional information required.
Difficult to evaluate your case without x-rays but even "cheap" implants are expensive with the addition of a crown. About $2300 per tooth. You might try the dental schools in Houston, Dallas or San Antonio for a better deal.
