If it's your back molar, @SeaMaiden, you might just have it pulled instead of having an implant.  


I just had that experience.I am still contemplating an implant though as I find my food harder to chew on that side...it seems to drop into the hole and I still have some pain when hard foods land there.

If I could get an implant for $3000 I would do a happy dance!!

 

I have one molar that we are trying to decide if needs a second root canal or removed and have an implant.

 

I have been quoted $4900 + bone graft $ + possible sinus surgery.

 

My mother had an implant last year $5100 all in. (no bone graft needed)

 

I had 2 surgeons say (if my situation was normal) to "just pull it and be done" but unfortunately that is not an option for me.


@Abrowneyegirl @My husband's implant is going to be $5200. The only good thing about this is it's not me having it.

I am heading out the door to the dentist here in 15 minutes.....find out what they can do.

 

 

 

I am back.....looks like a new crownšŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘.  That was what I was hoping for.  Just hope the tooth hangs in there after the new crown is on....I had one crown replaced a while back and then the tooth diedšŸ™. That is always the risk....if that happens I hope a root canal can be done.

Do not want to lose the tooth....running out of teethšŸ˜„

Had the work done on Monday.

I have NO CLUE what she did.

She thought she could REMOVE the bridge to do the work, but couldn't;  so she drilled thru the bridge.
