Answer:
The dental implant surgery is not painful and it is permanent. An effective local anesthetic is used during the surgery so that you do not have any discomfort during the placement of the implants. The procedure is very fast and easy. When the anesthesia wears off, you might expect some discomfort (different from patient to patient) Here is the process that you can expect: First, the implant, which looks like a screw or cylinder, is placed into your jaw. Over the next two to six months, the implant and the bone are allowed to bond together to form an anchor for your artificial tooth. During this time, a temporary tooth replacement option can be worn over the implant site. Finally, a replacement tooth called a crown will be created for you by your dentist and attached to the abutment.You can go to work the next day, unless some particular surgical circumstance arises. While a basic implant is typically $1,250. to $3,000., depending on your circumstances additional costs for things like in the case of a posterior mandible, bone regeneration, sinus elevation, and wide diameter or narrow diameter implants quickly escalate to as much as $15,000 to $30,000. for the complete procedure for the upper or lower jaw. I charge $1850 per implant tooth in my office. Some dental school charge as little as $500 per implant tooth (Best price?) and it’s done by licensing dentists, though you have to meet their qualifications. Check the dental school nears you for more info.

Between $1,500 & about $2,000 an implant depending on where you live. I know because I need one. I do not know how long the process takes from start to finish. I am told it doesn't hurt as bad as you would think even though the implant is "screwed" into your jaw bone. Yes, it is permanent. That is why I chose that over a bridge. Good Luck to you.

Dental Implant is very safe nowadays. It is very cheap in India. There is one company that is very famous in India that arranges Eye surgery for foreigners in India. They are called the Forerunners Healthcare. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. I have also read that they arrange financing for American and Canadian patients, as obesity surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. The cost savings are incredible. As a doctor I personally believe that your surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available here is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star. My cousin got her Dental and Lasik Surgery in India through the forerunners healthcare .She is more than very happy with the results. She just paid 25% of the amount she was quoted in USA and is all praise for this forerunners healthcare company. Hope this helps http://www.forerunnershealthcare.com

Implants cost far more than they are worth. When they fail, you will here some bs about how the problem is because of your loss of bone tissue or some other excuse. Implants fail allot and don't let nobody bs you. Ask your dentist about guarantees and you will get a song and dance.

in my country it costs about 1000-1200$ but we have lower fees too it depend on the office you go and the dentist. they are usually permanent but sometimes something happens that we need to take them out.I was once at the the operation room where my teacher put 4 fixtures in less than 20 minutes and it seems that the patient was in no pain at all.

Angela DDS gave an excellent answer. Having had 5 dental implants in my lower jaw in 1989, here is some additional infor-mation-mine were $2,000 each and that was done at a teaching hospital in our state because, at the time, it was the closest to us. At that time it took us a back and forth trip over 9 mnths totalling 2,000 miles (is this TMI?)-to continue-it was done under anesthetic due to 5 of them at one time. Yes there was post-op pain-felt like mule kicked me in the face but it was so worth it! I am sure, from AngelaDDSinfo that the procedure has been refined. I was in my mid-sixties and if I could stand the pain.... Go for it but make sure you have a very experienced dentist/surgeon. Insurance, at that time, did not pay for ours so that too has changed from the sounds of it. marlyne B

About 20,000. yes, it suppose to last the rest of your life and they screw them into you gums, yes, it is painful but, it done when your are asleep. at the hospital. But it worth the money if you can afford it. and they do give you pain killers.
