I understand you recommend implants, but is there a less costly way to do this?

Ibut having been through the consult process, for 3 implants w bone graft, a 4 tooth bridge and 1 crown, it was going to cost me $30,000. I have no insurance. Who can afford that? It is one year salary for most people.(after tax) Should I consult more and see if I can find a better deal somewhere? Why can't anyone invent less costly ways to do this. I have a temporary plastic bridge right now and it looks and function fine to me!
