Am I getting a good deal? I need 7 cavities filled and a tooth extraction and an implant put in?

I don't want to mention my estimate but just wondering from those of you with experience: What would be a fair price for having a partial molar extracted and having an implant put in (not a crown or bridge) and having 7 cavities filled along with a cleaning?





Thanks so much!

Reply:Teeth have 6 layers. Single-surface cavities are cheaper than filling multi-surface cavities. Amalgem (silver) fillings are generally a little cheaper than white fillings.





I had four cavities filled recently all white, one of them was 2 surface, the other three were single-surface. I paid $450. My routine check-up and cleaning was about $250, but this included my films (x-rays).
Reply:Can you get an implant in the place where the tooth will be extracted? I once had a back tooth extracted but while the dentist told me I didn't really need a replacement, I decided on one anyway because I didn't like how I kept sucking in my cheek there and biting it. The dentist told me I didn't have enough bone to support an implant so he suggested I get a double bridge/crown to replace that missing tooth. The double crown means that I had the two teeth in front of it capped in a joined crown to support the bridge.
Reply:7 cavities? Wow. The implant is going to be real pricey. I know my cleaning's are about $125 w/ xrays. No x-rays, about $85. Cavities, depending on how bad they are will probably run anywhere from $200-300/tooth. I've heard getting an implant is expensive. I know the crown I paid for, getting the temporary and permanent ran about $1000. I'd guess the implant is double that. I'd say you're looking at a minimum of $3500 all the way up to $5000. And, if you're in the bigger cities like L.A. or NYC, it may be even more.
Reply:Ummm upwards of $3,000? I was thinking of doing that...instead I got 7 fillings, a root canal, tooth buildup, crown lengthening surgery, and a crown. Hmm... I wonder which will be cheaper.
Reply:the price depends on the surface on the fillings, more surfaces more money....the extraction depends on if it should be simple or surgical....and the implant depends if u have to see a specialist ( and just to let u know--this is the best lifetime solution for u) after u see the specialist u would return to ur primary dentist to have the crown put on (an extra expense) As far as the prophy (cleaning) it depends if u are just a regualar prophy or if u have periodontal disease.


The deep cleanig costs alot more and depends on the stages of periodontal disease.





Then not to mention if u have insurance....all these factors play a huge roll in ur estimate.





i would suggest that u get a second opinion, as diffrent dr's have diffrent prices..unfortunatly





if u do go that route..i suggest getting ur x-rays from ur current dr.'s office...as most dr's will charge u for x-rays and exam fee....so if u can bypass the x-ray fee.....do it. but u may have to pay the dr. visit fee.





by law they cannot diagnose without the x-rays, even if u bring the treatment plan from previous dr.





so in other words less is more...especially if it stays in ur pocket.





if i were u....i would look into a chain called "affordable dentisty today" they are not nationwide yet...but they are in several state..hopfully there located in ur state.





they have pretty resonable prices on dental work..but, i don;t think they do they do the implants...whereas they would refer u to one of their collegues.
