I need full upper dental implants, I was wondering what ballpark price range I would be looking at, and how much recuperation time I would be looking at. I nned the upper teeth pulled as well as the implants put in.

Thank you so much for you time

Thanks for the enquiry, Barbie. The questions you ask are the right ones, but they are very hard to answer without seeing you and understanding your needs and wants. Implant cases vary widely according to the dental situation. Simple cases might require 1-2 implants, complex cases might require many more. Another variable is how much bone you have remaining if teeth have been removed or if periodontal disease is present.

By far the best way to understand what your options are is to come in for a complete exam that includes x-rays, photos, and a visual examination. Only with this information can we give you any type of estimate of cost and difficulty.

We would be happy to spend time with you, but it is just not done well blindly. Please set up an exam day and we will spend the time to show you what your options and potential costs are.
