I want to get a tooth implant where i have a bad tooth that needs to get extracted. what did you pay for the "whole" process? Where did you get it done and would you recommend it? Also did you have to wait till your gum was healed after the extraction?

A friend of mine paid about 2500 dollars for the entire process, visit, exam, and one implant. They usually do the implant right after the extraction, but you have weeks of healing afterwards. It's very costly.

Simple extraction, bone graft, immediate dental implant and temporary crown all $1200 with Dental Care India Tour. It may also be possible if you are young. The normal process of healing takes its own course and precaution is needed. The second visit is however required after healing to get the permanent crown. It may not be worth to take the trouble for just one implant.

$2,600. Insurance didn't cover any of the implant. Yes, you need to wait until the site has healed. But not too long or you may have bone loss at the extraction site. Talk to your dentist about it.

i doubt you have to wait, i think they put it in then and there. it shouldn't cost much but to get a good estimate call your local dentist for a quote.
