what is the average cost of dental implants or veneers per tooth? and total prices? and what is the difference between implants and veneers if there is one?
Implants and veneers are vastly different.
An implants is a replacement for a tooth that you have missing, or are due to have extracted. A surgeon, or sometimes general dentist, will place a titanium implant (looks like a screw on the x-ray) in the bone. Then you will wait several months for the bone to fully heal around it (called osseointegration) and then you can have an abutment (kind of like a post) screwed into the implant and then a crown is fabricated and cemented over the abutment. These are both done by your general dentist. These are a fantastic and long term solution to missing teeth. They can usually cost around $3500.00 – $4000.00 once you have paid the surgeon and your dentists fee.
Veneers are a cosmetic restoration. These are small, sometimes only the thickness of a contact lense, porcelain restorations that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. Usually only the front 6 teeth. They can give you the appearance of whiter, straighter, and sometimes bigger or smaller teeth. These are not an option for everyone and, as I said, are almost purely cosmetic. These usually run around $1000.00 per tooth. Google "Lumineers" and you will find some great information on veneers.
