Say hey....here's a piece of excellent old time New Hampshire advice....save yourself a lot of money....and just go get yourself a tube of that J B Weld, repair-kit-in-a-tube, and using a 3/8" soldiered copper plumbing cap as a mold...you should be able to cast yourself a new molar, bicuspid, or incisor.....no problemos....just make sure you grease up the copper cap first before applying the J B Weld...otherwise it will never come off.....once the J B Weld sets up.....

!

Old J B Weld to the rescue....from broken outboard motor skegs...to broken incisors....and still only $5.99.

Regarding the OP, my wife had 4 implants done at once; she saw Dr. Mark Scurra at Concord Oral Surgery. She was very pleased with his work. She needed bone grafts because a couple of her teeth had been pulled MANY years ago and the jaw bone had receded. If I remember correctly, it took about a year for her to get through the whole process; do bone grafts, wait for healing, place posts, wait some more for healing and then the crowns.

She's planning on going back for one or two more in the future, once we save up the money. That's the only problem with implants, the UNGODLY initial expense!! $4,000 - $5,000 apiece is A LOT of money (and insurance won't touch it!)!
