Cheap dental implants in Grain Valley, MO

Dental implants come in three main forms: single, multiple and full mouth. Single implants are used to replace a single missing tooth, while multiple are for replacing several teeth at once and the latter is ideal when all or most of your teeth need to be replaced.

Dental implants come with a high price tag primarily due to the complex surgical procedure, skilled professionals, and high-quality materials involved. The process requires a dentist or oral surgeon to insert a titanium post into the jawbone, which fuses with the bone over time, providing a strong foundation for the artificial tooth. Additionally, custom-made crowns add to the expense, as they need to be designed to match the patient's natural teeth. Lastly, dental insurance often doesn't cover the full cost, which can make implants seem more expensive.

Dental implants involve a surgical procedure, so some discomfort is natural. During the placement of the implant, you may feel pressure and hear tapping sounds as your dentist drills into your jawbone. Afterwards there might be some soreness or minor swelling; however this should subside in a few days with application of ice packs and over-the-counter pain killers like ibuprofen. Ultimately getting dental implants will help restore chewing ability and improve your smile - so it's worth it.

Alternatives to dental implants include traditional dentures, bridges, and inlay or onlay restorations. Dentures utilize artificial teeth that can fit inside the mouth, while bridges rely on neighboring teeth for support. Inlays and onlays are prosthetic crowns used to replace missing pieces of teeth.
