If Original Medicare covers you "part A, B", then, unfortunately, you will not have coverage for dental implants.
Medicaid and Medicare Part B will not pay for dental implants. However if you find a surgical provider for Medicare part B they often pay towards bone grafting and sinus lifts. You need to check with Medicare to find a "surgical dental provider," not a "dentist." You need to have Part B and have a non-HMO secondary so not Medicaid, not Kaiser but something like AARP etc.Hope this helps. Dr E
It is our understanding that implants are not covered by Medicaid (most private insurances don't have coverage for implants either).However, you can check with your state guidelines on this issue. Also, some hospitals may have programs that can help you cover portion of the procedure.Thank you,Dr. Oleg Vinson
Both titanium and zirconia are radiopaque in xray. infect zirconia implants are more radiopaue than titanium implants.
Dental implants should be placed 1.5-2 mm away from a natural tooth to prevent damage to the tooth/ it's ligament. You should see your dentist to evaluate the tooth and rule out infection around the implant.
Yes, it is possible to place 4 individual implants in the front to replace 4 teeth. But it is usually not necessary to do that. Doing two implants and a bridge works very well for most patients.
