im 21 years old and have bad teeth. well i used to. right now i have no insurance, but i have one temp bridge, and two crowns in my upper teeth. the bridge consists of 3 teeth. these are all my 5 upper teeth together. i hate it! they always come loose and i have to go in like every 5 months to get them re cemented on. and i can't afford anything. however, i just got a new job, and i will have dental insurance. im thinking about implants. now i would do my top 6 teeth, since its the two crowns, my real tooth, then the 3 tooth bridge. would this be worth it? even at a young age? i just hate my smile, the bridge is starting to change color, and im so embarassed to smile. when getting dental implants, can they do any color i would want? how long do i have to wait to start eating normal again? please tell me any expierances you have, and any info you have. approx how much would it cost in the northeast wisconsin area for 6 dental implants? i am willing to do anyting for a beautiful smile!

I had a 1 dental implant 2 months ago. There is no dental coverage on implants. They do a color to match your existing teeth. The procedure is extensive and expensive but worth it. First you see a periodontist $250.00 to see if your mouth is healthy enough, a cat scan $300.00 of your jaw for perfect placement, you need a appliance for the cat scan $200.00. Then you have appointment for the surgery $2500.00 - $4000.00 depending on if you need bone or gum grafting. They drill into jaw bone with several different bits and implant post for crown. You then wear a silver cap for 2 - 3 months until implant is healed enough to accept crown that you get from your dentist $1760.00. Now waiting for lummineers for that perfect smile.
