Triangle Implant Dentistry, Dr Reebye is the best by any measure. I did not have implants with him but had a tooth pulled by him and it took 30 seconds. My son had 4 wisdom teeth pulled at the same time and took one Advil afterward....only because I insisted. I had a conversation once with his assistant - she was an instructor at the dental school he went to. They both ended up here in NC and she went to work for him - she said he was amazing from his first day of school.
Downside? Billing department is clueless and uncooperative.
Insurance? That depends entirely on YOUR plan - there is no universal dental insurance that all covers the same thing. I happen to have good insurance for dental. Your mileage may vary.

Thank you for the feedback!
My experience with dental insurance is fairly consistent -- cleanings are covered, some x-rays, but then everything else seems to be covered very lightly (maybe 50%). I honestly don't think my current dental plan is good nor bad, just average.
Thanks for the heads up about the billing department. That seems to be a spreading craze in the medical world!

Totally agree that Dr Reebye is fantastic. He is dually trained, both as a dentist and physician…..thus his credentials are MD, DMD. He trained as a dentist in NY and received his MD degree at UNC Chapel Hill.
My husband received a quote for just a bridge and it was $20K!!! His out of pocket after dental insurance would have been $10K.
I was quoted $30,000,00 to redo my bottom teeth. My insurance would only pay $1500.
A McDonalds I visited a couple of days ago wanted $10 for a tired ass fish samich.....

Not only the expense, but don’t you go for a year with no teeth, while the screws heal? My friend has gone over a year waiting for the implant on one tooth to be finished. No way am I going a year looking like a toothless hag.

You can get a temporary partial.
They call it a "flipper."
I had one for a front tooth implant.
Didn't bother when I had the two back implants done.
