Has anyone did this? I need four molars replaced in the back, but can only get two done and the rest later. Has anyone ever did this before? It's 20k in all, but two are 10k+ ( which I have ). Want to know your thoughts.

If you are located in Florida or can get to Orlando, we've been to Dr. Koyfman $1900 for a complete implant crown, placement, abutement, etc. Can't speak highly enough of the man. Great dentist.

Sounds overpriced. Does this include bone graft or sinus lift? If just implant and crown, I'd shop around.

I did that, you simply have them do the bone grafts after the extractions, then the implants can be done any time after the bone has grown in, even years later. It's just annoying to have food (like peas) drop into the space. Even after the titanium post is in, you can wait to have the crown done. I agree that seems high, mine were about $4,000 each. With double coverage from my employer and my wife's, I timed it to use the maximum annual benefit over several years and ended up only paying about half out of pocket.

I'm getting the implants done which is 2500 each. The crowns will be done by my general dentist which is around 800 each. This doesn't include bone graft, which maybe needed. Not a bad price for someone who has tons of experience. I rather go for experience + quality service vs someone who's doing it for cheaper and less experience.
