The cost quoted for implants sometimes does not include the cost of the crown after the implant anchor work is done. I would (and have) go to a dentist who will do the job start to finish, including the final crowns. I've had one implant, done by a reputable dentist (Dr. Novak, Bushnell Family Dentistry). It wasn't cheap, but he stuck with his initial estimate despite the fact that he discovered I needed an $800 additional something-or-other, which he then didn't charge me for because it wasn't in the original estimate. I only know this because the dental tech told me about it after the dentist left the room. How he communicated that to her while in the room I have no idea.
An honest, excellent dentist. Start to finish, a little less than $5K, including crown.
