Tooth implant?

It's quite expensive, It does work, but you have to have the time to deal with the diet/eating restrictions over an extended period, in the range of 9 months total and variable pain through the process. After all that, you do have a new tooth or teeth. I've had family members who have gone through it and both have said not again.Experiences, good or bad?
Yeah, the tooth implants feel a bit hard. LOLi prefer women with naturals, myself

Dan, fairly expensive about $2500.00 per implant. Very little pain involved. However it takes about 12 weeks for the implant to graft to your jawbone and in the intrim you get to wear a bridge. Once the implant takes it is no different than having your own tooth.
You should be dentured from terb for that comment.sorry. i won't bite into this anymore
I had an implant about 4 years ago - fractured a molar while skiing at Banff. Actually, fractured the molar below the gum line after wiping out while skiing at Banff would be more accurate....Experiences, good or bad?
Digging the broken bits of tooth / roots out of my gums was far more painful than the implant. Yes, the titanium implant was expensive. However, once the whole process was done, it's been rock solid - never had a problem with it.
What's the alternative? A bridge? I think that would be worse....

I had to reread your post twice because the first time I did so too fast and thought you posted BADGE. My bad.Dan, fairly expensive about $2500.00 per implant. Very little pain involved.

you can't handle the toothYou should be dentured from terb for that comment.
I had two done, I recommended to anybody especially when the dentist said to you he is trying to save your tooth.Experiences, good or bad?
I dont think the pain involved is more than going for the regular dental work.
It is costly, about $2500 each, I bet I spent that much on the dentist trying to save the tooth 3 years prior to the implant, so the total I spent on that tooth was $5000.
If I have another chip tooth, that's how it got started, and start getting worse, I'll will take it out with no hesitation and put in an implant.
It works 95% of the real tooth, highly recommended.
You are as big a pain in the tooth as Lancslad ever was.You always floss over the trooth.
its a big cavity to fillYou are as big a pain in the tooth as Lancslad ever was.
Get a bridge instead, it's usually covered 50% by insurances, it's less expensive and less painful...
