Yes, I am one of those who can't stand going to the dentist. In fact I have not gone for years. Then I broke a tooth and went looking and talked with some friends. They recommended Royal Dental at The Villages, phone number (352) 751-4446. The dentist in Dr. German Gaitan who is a really good dentist and I highly recommend him. Alex

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the difference between a mini implant and a regular implant?

The difference is price.I have a regular implant and it was expensive.But if you look at both side by side you see the big difference strength.The metal post for a mini implant is a lot smaller then the regular implant.

What is the difference in cost of a mini implant and a regular implant? Has anyone had the mini implants and what are your thoughts?
Thank you. |

Can you get implants for just the front teeth? My wife has been told she would need a whole mouthful if she wants any at all.

I am just researching mini implants so that a denture can be created to snap onto it. I was curious about costs. I definitely will need bottom and the top maybe just around the corner. Any advice.. recommendations... concerns... and costs... up front.. unforseen... etc...

I had an appointment this morning with Dr. Caylor in Laurel Manor. He pulled a tooth that had broken off a couple of weeks ago and also inserted an implant in another tooth that broke off and was pulled last year. He does a great job. I was able to eat a bowl of lukewarm soup within 3 hours and am here typing on my computer. I am on pain meds however.

I hate to "beat a dead horse" but I'm very curious about costs. I am looking for the mini implants (approximately 4) so that dentures can be snapped on to them. For a lower or an upper are we talking more than $10,000 for each or is it less? I'm trying to get a gauge as to cost before I make an appointment with a professional. I am appalled at what my doctor in NY billed for lower bridges (the whole bottom with the exception of the teeth to attach to). It was more than $20,000 and here I am looking to replace the poor job he did only two years later!

Now I am curious - if you have implants you can "snap" dentures on rather than having a plate? Sounds intriguing. FYI - I am in northern Georgia and have been quoted $3500 for each implant (regular not mini).

I have no experience yet with mini or other implants and such but I recommend Dr Gaitan at Royal Dental based on my recent visits with him and the staff. I believe you will find him very professional and honest to give you a best choice of options. The entire staff are great. I endorse them because of the way I've been treated as a person and not a number. If you are looking for info on dentist you can google their name for a complete bio. Hope I've helped.
