I will need a front upper tooth removed, a block bone graft put in place along with bone particulates and then a gum graft put over the bone implant. Since most, or if not all, dental insurance plans do not offer coverage of this type of procedure since it is classified as Cosmetic, what are the overall costs for a procedure such as this? i am worried that it might be in the range of $10-$20K? Please tell me differently.
