In some cases, patients may choose to have their wisdom teeth replaced with dental implants. The cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery can vary depending on a number of factors. Here are some factors that can affect the cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery by Coal Creek:

 

Ø  Location: The cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery can vary depending on the location of the dental practice. Urban areas tend to have higher costs than rural areas.

 

Ø  The type of implant: Different types of dental implants have varying costs. Some dental implants are made of titanium, while others are made of zirconia. Zirconia implants tend to be more expensive than titanium implants.

 

Ø  The number of teeth being replaced: The cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery can also depend on the number of teeth being replaced. If a patient is only having one wisdom tooth replaced, the cost will be lower than if multiple teeth are being replaced.

 

Ø  The complexity of the case: The complexity of the case can also affect the cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery. If the patient has a complicated medical history or if the surgery is more difficult due to the location of the wisdom teeth, the cost may be higher.

 

Ø  Insurance coverage: Dental insurance coverage can also affect the cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery. Some insurance plans may cover the cost of the surgery, while others may not.

 

Ø  Surgeons’ experience and qualifications: The experience and qualifications of the surgeon performing the surgery can also affect the cost. Surgeons with more experience and specialized training may charge higher fees than those with less experience.

 

It is important to keep in mind that the cost of wisdom tooth implant surgery can vary depending on several factors, including location, type of implant, number of teeth being replaced, complexity of the case, insurance coverage, and the surgeon's experience and qualifications. It is best to consult with a dental professional to get a more accurate estimate of the cost for your specific case.
