Hi there,
Pricing for full upper dental arch reconstruction can vary depending on how many implants are needed and placed and how those implants are restored as well as the need for any necessary bone grafting. Pricing can range from $10,000-$15,000 all the way up to $30,000-$50,000, again depending on how it's done. 
You may only get 2 to 4 implants and they may be used simply as attachment points for a complete denture that clips into place to restore your dentition and oral function. However, for true "tooth by tooth" implant placements that are then restored with fixed bridge work or individual implant crowns, the cost can be significantly more when done properly. 
Regardless of which clinical route you take, keep in mind that dental implant mouth reconstruction must be "over engineered" in order to succeed in which case saving a few thousand dollars may lead to the treatment failing within 1 to 2 years after being completed with catastrophic results which has been the case for some of the latest "popular" implant mouth reconstruction techniques with fancy names. 
The upper arch has softer bone than the lower arch and requires more extensive implant support for long term success, this is scientifically proven. Make sure you perform such treatment with a doctor that has extensive experience. Also please keep in mind this is considered major dental outpatient surgery, and while you may save some money being treated abroad, in case of any complications of which there are many for this type of treatment, being treated abroad would leave very little room for liability should the results be less than acceptable. Good luck!

there are many factors that affect implant costing. for eg. material used, implant brand, doctor's professional charge, location, any other surgery required etc. but as u have multiple implants and you r worried about cost , so best option for u is dental tourism. you will save upto 70% on your total treatment costing with same quality treatment.

Hello!A full arch 4M Dental Implant procedure at our office starts at 15900. Your first step should be a consultation with an experienced dental implant specialist so they can see how you bone and gums are and if you'll need any additional procedures, etc. From there you can get a realistic idea of what a full arch will cost you. I always recommend getting a few opinions as every doctor has their own style, preferences and level of experience. Go with who you're most comfortable with.I've included a link to our dental implant costs page below. Best of luck!

We recommend that you get the All on Four System for your treatment . The All on Four System consists of placing 4 implants and putting a full acrylic bridge. It will give you all your teeth and your smile again. Patients say its just like having your own teeth again. 
.If you are interested in saving money go abroad for implant treatment [dental tourism]. It is just two visits and save lots of money. Here in algodones one implant is around 750-1200 dlls only the implant.

Think about "How much for upper Teeth"?  as that is really what you want.  We dentist usually like to plan out the road to your final smile result BEFORE removing teeth unless you are in pain etc.  I always start with a full immediate denture if implants are not place at time of surgery.  We want to establish where your smile should be so at least we will know where and what angles to place implants.  Sometimes we can even modify the denture to fit the implants if all implants will not be placed at once.You have many options (2 to 6 or more implants/removable or fixed teeth-@$6k-$30k) and you should contact a few dental offices and ask for a consult and make sure you like the dentist and that they seem to have experience in implant supported fixed and removable dentures.  First think 6 implants and fixed ceramic hybrid denture...but everyone's mouth is unique, it will be custom built for you.

You should see someone at least for a consult as soon as possible. At the time of extractions, bone grafting should be done. If not, then you loose bone and may not be able to have implants or may need additional surgeries. 2 to 8 implants can be done to hold your teeth. Depends if you want something removable or fixed. Please have someone evaluate you as soon as possible.

After extractions, 2-3 months of healing is adequate before implants can be placed. At our implant center, full arch fixed teeth treatment package is 19500. Check our website facialart.com/dentalimplants  for more information.
