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.

Hello, I would be happy to provide a consultation at no charge. The cost will vary depending on the implant manufacturer. I would need the brand, size etc. of the implants which your surgeon will be able to provide.Good luckDr Girschek781-899-3700

Thank you for the question, one comment, natural teeth and implants SHOULD NOT BE BRIDGED. This will cause failure of the implants, loss of the natural teeth, or both....With that said, from your description it sounds that you need two crowns on the natural teeth, and crowns and abutments on the implants. Your care would be best provided by a Prosthodontist -a specialist in crown, bridge and implant restorations-. The cost will be dependent on the type of the crowns and the type of the abutments used. On average crowns range between $1200-1600, and abutments range between $600-850.I would be glad to provide you with a more accurate estimate after an individualized consultation.Have a good weekend,Eyad Haidar DMD, CAGS in Prosthodontics

The cost will depend on how many implants you had placed. Custom abutments or posts will be needed for each implant placed. You will then need an 4-unit implant bridge for the 4 missing front teeth. The canines will also need single crowns.Costs can range for a number of factors. For instance, I am a Prosthodontist who specializes in crowns and implant dentistry. Not all dentist have the same level of training/expertise that I may bring. The quality of the dental technician plays a vital role as to the esthetic and functional outcome that can be achieved. I would need more specific details (how many implants placed) in order to give you a better idea as to costs.
