They say that for the first set of teeth you are grateful to life for getting them, but for everything else, we will have to pay.
The loss of natural teeth was not left without a solution. In the modern era, dental bridges are less often recommended and implantology services are increasingly popular. We also have specialists who can carry out such interventions, impeccably, with minimal discomfort for the patient; but at what cost, we ask?
In Romania, oral hygiene seems to be optional, considering that we are in the top of those with dental problems, but also of those who do not use many specific products for dental care. Believe it or not, 70% of Romanians have dental problems. Why do we delay interventions so much? The reasons often invoked, according to studies, are: fear of the dentist, but above all, fear of costs. We detail implantology rates in the following lines.
Ironically, the longer he delays, the worse the situation
Any problem, if not solved in time, gets worse. Those related to maintaining oral health are no exception. If it has reached the point where one or more natural teeth have fallen from the arch, the solution remains the implant. In the absence of timely intervention, the gum recedes, so that, in the end, even the dental implant will be more difficult to insert. Bone addition will also be required, another procedure, another cost.
However, there are also clinics that apply the staggered payment rule. Thus, the patient has time to pay the installments until he pays the full cost. It is good to note that the dental implant has two stages until it can be considered totally completed. After the implant itself, a temporary work can be attached. Only after a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 6 months after this intervention is the healing complete and the patient can benefit from a permanent job.
Rates for implantology services, example from a Bucharest clinic
Obviously, each clinic applies different costs, depending on the services provided, the experience of the doctors in the team, the clinic’s equipment and the materials they work with. For those who want quality, premium materials, the best of the best, a clinic in Bucharest promises them an experience they want. Costs vary, depending on the type of implant. Therefore, it is expected to be about amounts like 5400 lei for an implant made in Switzerland, premium quality, with immediate loading. Bone addition, without membrane, costs 700 lei, and an internal sinus lift costs 2000 lei.
To know what costs to expect, at least one visit to the specialist doctor is necessary. The first will be for evaluation, a second, with the related X-rays, will be able to determine what the treatment plan is – that is, how many implants are needed, if they are needed, what treatments are involved and overall approximate costs.
What we don’t do in time, says a famous quote, we will never do again. Or it will certainly cost us a lot more.
