I had dental implants done about one and a half years ago, and one of the implants itself has broken. I understand the broken implant now has to be removed, and replaced. The implant is from Nobel Biocare. The surgeon that has initially placed the implant reckons that the cost of the implant itself, ie. just the screw, is covered, but not the procedure to remove the broken one, and replace with the new one. Nobel's website states it is "limited to the replacement of the failed product"..

Answer: Implant Warranty Hello,Dental Implants usually comes with a life time warranty, which mean the company would provide with a implant in replacement if the implant is broken. The cost for implant removal and replacement surgery is the matter of the surgeon to decide.Hope it helps.

Answer: Warranty on dental implants. Sorry to hear about what happened to the implant. Most implant manufacturers have warranties that cover fracture of implants and original components. That means the surgeon will get a free component when the broken one is returned. Interestingly this his type of fracture is most common with Nobel Biocare implants that are made of a weaker type of titanium Grade 4. As for the professional fees for the surgery that is normally charged by the surgeon. The reason for the fracture need to be assessed too in order to understand and eliminate causative factors. Good luck
