Funny how they can come up with much better teeth but no-one can come up with a much better lower cost for them.
Facts.
Every thing is high. Biden factor.
@@johncoe6304 *except your IQ. VERY low!*
Actually, dental implants have gotten exponentially better and considerably cheaper, each year.
Ain't that the truth!! I'm sure them fixing them if ur not satisfied is FREE cuz they probably gonna cost 500 grand!!! Or more
I'm always amazed how there's gender reassignment surgery, all kinds of hormone replacement stuff but when it comes to teeth the options are grim and so costly its insane
Ha ha 😂😂 true
How are the options grim? There's literally dozens of options to getting the smile you want. And wtf does gender reassignment surgery have to do with teeth? It's not like those types of surgeries and/or hormones are cheap. The two aren't even comparable anyways, you just wanted to be transphobic. Grow up.
@@ItsmeBish584 😂😂😂love your clap back 💖
that's why so many people have missing and bad teeth! Furthermore dental insurance is a joke,...it doesn't cover hardly any or just a fraction, ...and to make matters even worse I found that most dentist don't even accept the insurance. ...everything out of pocket.

My mother wore dentures for about 30 years and towards the end of her life she had very little bone left and none of the other options were available for her. I wish I known about other options earlier and she could have a better quality of life. But she never complained. That’s how wonderful she was.
I am in the same boat, but the options available are not that great and may not work. And they're too expensive anyway, From all the specialists I've gone to, they say bone loss is beyond their expertise.
Ask your dentists about mini implants. They are fairly inexpensive and work very well. Especially for patients with severe bone loss.
Mini implants require surgery just like standard implants, the main difference is they are less strong and more likely to have problems. We prefer to alter where the implants are placed rather than place a weaker and less stable implant. Give us a call at 801-590-8694

All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth... well actually an upper denture and a lower partial. Insurance should make this affordable for everyone. Imagine a world where everyone can have a beautiful smile, and proudly show it. What the world needs now is love... and people smiling.
You're right.I smile all day every day
I understand but dentists love money and want more and more.
FUNNY. THE VERY LAST 2I HAD PULLED... WAS MY FRONT 2 AND LIKE 3 DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS. UGH
These should be made affordable for everyone! That is the reality that needs to be implemented! Dentistry is a business!
A business they are cashing in on hand over fist!!!
SMH
Yep, for the most part illegitimate businesses
In reality, this IS the cheaper option. Up until the 3 on 6, the average permanent full mouth restoration (All-on-4) was $80k. Our 3 on 6 system has cut that price in half and many doctors doing things the old way are unhappy that we are driving prices down. We understand that it's not affordable for everyone. The 3 on 6 is the best permanent smile restoration available but for those who want something cheap, there are other options such as dentures and implant supported dentures.
@@smileclinicusa Sad that you actually thnk that. I really feel sorry for you.
I agree with other comments , average people like me , on a small pension cant afford what it costs to fix their teeth, my teeth have been terrible and extremely crooked all my life which was difficult going through life , but my parents simply could not afford braces or to pay that much to fix my teeth up, they did what they could ,
$30k for a full mouth.. With good credit. Extractions and bone grafting are extra! Its ridiculous that they get away with charging that much for this stuff..
Hi Mike! The 3 on 6 is likely the most affordable permanent full mouth restoration you'll find anywhere, and likely by a large margin. We're happy to have you come in for a free consultation and we can let you know what it will take.
Cheaper than all on 4
I need help. I'm a 34 year old mother of two girls and unfortunately I did not get a good start in life with oral care. My mom raised Me by herself and was working three jobs to get by and to take care of me and my four brothers. Long story short, all of my teeth have deteriorated and I have four abscesses right now. I have been dealing with severe tooth decay for 10 years and the worst part is that I have no credit. No bad credit but no credit and CareCredit will not help me. I've been trying to find a dentist or somebody to sponsor my procedure.... Does anybody have any recommendations? I live in North Dakota.
But yet many drop more then that on a vehicle lol... So you'll be ok
@@inspiredbystarr did u try a grants they have some out here look into it
If you have to take a 25 year loan out in order to pay for teeth, it AINT affordable, JACK!
Aint that the truth.... Im missing teeth but will keep my partials and deal. This is about $1K+ per implant....
2 months ago I paid $59,000 for all on 4. They're perfect with lifetime support, but man, they're expensive.

@@lorenzq5706 That's what I said. It's crazy that they are out of reach for most. And dumb. It's just as good as getting teeth back, so it corrects a problem millions have.

As with all implants, the cost is prohibitive and too few people will ever get to benefit
John Bee you didn't lie about that!
Please dental professionals perfect this so everyone can benefit from this procedure. Even those on a fixed income. Somehow.
I am so depressed about my teeth. I have had bad teeth all my life even though I’ve brushed and flossed. Bridges and root canals. All are failing and I can’t smile, can’t eat, have sores on the sides of my mouth and have no insurance. My husband has been laid off and was just diagnosed with ureter cancer. I wish I could have my teeth fixed. All I want is to smile again.
i feel bad for you but your not alone i'm going through it to no social life can't smile it's horrible and theres no choices it's rob a bank or save for 5 to 7 years and hope you can still do it. it's a fked situation but you are not alone in this
Thats tru i was like both of you for many years i had no teeth at all for 5 or 6 years cuz i had to pull off all my teeth but couple years ago my cousin did finish the collage and he became DDS Doctor Of Dental surgery half price which is on U.S or little less ìthan Dr. Surgery dentist and could fix them at him. If you want to fix your teeth for half price or less which is in US i can make i can tell you and help you to make reservations and you can come in Kosova-Europe to get your teeth fixed better than in many places of world with a guarantee and have a grat vacation while you are here you don't have to give me money or anyone else you only have to buy a plain ticket and come here and and pay the doctor i guarantee you that you will be very very satisfied.
You poor lady. Firstly, I hope ur husband will be ok. Pray for God's provision. He knows ur situation. Maybe He will help u to win enough money to hve ur teeth done. I wish I cud help u.
I had bad teeth and lost many now I always rinse my mouth after eating acid food and alcohol and sweet yhings including juice etc. and do the rest flossing and brushing of course. My teeth are a bit better now, People do coconut oil pulling very good too check it out at U tube. Best wishes/
My sympathies. I feel your pain! Hate to break it to you though but insurance pays for nothing !!! Good luck !
My grandmother used dentures since she was 27 they never have fallen off, and the food has tasted wonderful plus they look so natural people don't even realize she wearing dentures I think sometimes a dentist is like a mechanic they are always pushing for more pricey things.
To use the car analogy you proposed: dentures are like driving a 1990 Honda Civic. For many people they are happy in a car that doesn't have power steering or air conditioning or modern safety features. And that's okay. The 3 on 6 is like driving a brand new Lexus. It is more comfortable (permanent, no large plastic in the roof of your mouth), more safe (protects from bone deterioration), more convenient (doesn't have to be removed each night, rinsed in chemicals, and glued back in everyday), and higher performing (you can eat steak, apples, corn on the cob, anything you want!). So there's no right answer for every single person, but all things considered, an implant restored 3 on 6 smile is far superior than a removable acrylic denture.

I would love this treatment. In Australia and even if it was here, it would be far too expensive for me to have it done. Dentists are the most overpaid people in the medical industry in my opinion. Yes they have people to contend with but still overcharge and some don't even do that great a job and are very slap dash. I only go if I have to.
Same for me Liz. I only have top and bottom front teeth left due to medications over the years. It would cost me $25,000 to get all new teeth. All on 4 they call it. Will just have to gum everything to death for the rest of my life.
Notice the vehicles a Doctor drives compared to what Dentists drive .......quite a difference! Way overpaid
Answer is Mexico.
The cost outweighs the benefits, if there are any.
Fly here and have it done !
I believe in dentist making a porfit, however 90% of people cannot afford even $5,000..everyone should be able to have this at an affordable rate. Teeth health effects your entire health and life. Like medical care,dental care is not a privilege but a necessity! With the technology we have today plus the 3D printers that can make these ...I don't see why the cost cannot be closer to the $5,000 mark. I'd sign up in a second,yet still need to pay it off over a 5 yr period with my income. Sounds like a great procedure...lets get the cost down!
The lab fee alone is ranging from 5-10k for just labor and materials (this is not the high either), this does not include implant parts. What are you suggesting Dentist should make? Hours of planning, paying staff, rent etc...
Denise DeStefanis $5000 is a lot for me, when I lost me teeth first I lost were the ones (8) that I had root canals! I wore braces in my late 30s into my mid 40s! So Paying more out like that is A hurting in your pocketbook!
Cheaper doesn’t mean better and I experienced that first hand when I went to a cheap dentist, I go to a great one now and I pay a premium out of pocket and it’s way too expensive for me but the result speaks for itself.
I have used this company which makes very light partials. I paid under 300 for my top set. www.lowpricedentures.com/
Why should they? US ,Aussies, or UK citizens have to pay the worldwide highest prices for dental works..! Even my 2 year old Kid know that..
Well I'll wait til I hit the lottery. I need upper & lowers.
ME TOO
@Feezie F-Baby me 4. Full set upper n lower.
This makes me feel sick to my stomach. I have had dentures for almost 10 years and I absolutely hate it. Having dentures has caused me to not go out and make friends or be around people. It has taken any self esteem I had. When I laugh or smile around family, I look down or hide my smile because I feel so horrible about myself. This is going to the front of my WISHLIST. I will start to save every bit of money I get for this procedure. Perhaps I would start a youtube channel and document my entire process of getting it done. If it helps me, I am sure I would want to share it with the world. Im only in my early 30's. I have to fix this problem or my life will continue to degrade and stay in a place that isnt healthy, all because of the beautiful smile I had at one point in my life. GRRR. Thank you for creating this product. Even if i have to go to a different state to have this done. Im down.
Hi TJ. Sorry to hear about your story and hopefully we can help you. Feel free to give us a call at 888-877-5790. There may be financing options available for you.
I also think that implants should automatically be covered by your health insurance the dentist basically said it himself the only one that you can live with is implants
I agree. Along with laser eye surgery. It's correcting a physical ailment.
We wish it were the case. Unfortunately dental insurance is rarely worth the price you pay for it. That said, insurance is designed so they win in the long run by making you pay more premiums than you would if you just paid for the treatment yourself.
@@smileclinicusa very good point, these insurance companies are VILE BLOOD SUCKING PARASITES!!!
Absolutely not - I, along with countless other Americans, do not want to pay higher premiums to help reverse the effects of the poor personal decisions of others. Smoking, drug abuse, poor oral hygiene and diet is the leading cause of tooth loss and decay - why should those that live a healthy lifestyle be penalized for those that don't? Of course dentists would be OK with this because that would mean more patients and guaranteed profits but the average responsible American values self-accountability and consequences for one's actions or inaction. I would become a political activist quick if this issue was on the table and donate all that I could to avoid becoming more of a nanny state. If we could separate those accident victims with otherwise healthy teeth, that is one thing, but to replace a mouth full of decay with expensive implants is an outrageous suggestion.
@@smileclinicusa That is the dentist's and insurance companies' fault. GREED! There should only be a co-pay if you are insured! The dental industry is a SCAM!
I have dentures and love them - no issues what so ever . took a couple of weeks to get used to - i speak well with them and eat what I want. No dentists in my life - not ever again
Amen. I justcwent thru hell with a non drugged surgical extraction and a wk.later have still not recovered. Tak3 note: they did not offer sedation! I told them it was a small abcess .I had only taken 2 penicillins that made the pain subside(they had no intr3r3st in that). Itvhurt like hell to hav3 the dam shots even thonthectoothache had ceased. No pill brfore hand was advised. No i.v.sedation was offered. It,s like the1800's. Things hwve not gotten better in a 100 yr.s!!!! He used too little. I.was not even numb after. The 1st set did not work well. He gave me a 2nd set. Te Here in Spokane there is a sedation wagon thst pulls up at any dental and sedates u to sleeP but is too 3xpensive. Terrrible. Wish I hqd stuck with stopping it with penicillin afew times a yr. Was a cavity hiding behind a crown. Went thru the dentin.
Upper and Lower plates, (porcelain) Juarez, MX $1,000 USD superb work!
They are so expensive here in the US! So many people are doing it abroad now, way cheaper, ex) Mexico, Philippines, etc. You can have a vacation at the same time, cheaper!
On my way 2 Mexico 🇲🇽
Also going to Turkey, best clinics in Europe. You have good time and hotel.
This looks like an amazing option, for those that can afford it ! I have always tried to look after my teeth e.g. brushing twice a day etc. But looking back i do think that some of the dentists i,ve had , have really done early unnecessary work . I have several crowns, and one that came out recently cannot be put back, due to crack in what,s left of my tooth !! The only option is for implants ... costing much more than i can afford, as i am on a pension . Think i should have trained as a dentist !!
I totally agree with you! I feel dentists are grooming aka setting us up for long term unaffordable trouble!
The cost is outrageous. When you think of the material involved, low cost, how much does that little amount of acrylic cost, and to place screws in the mouth, 6 screws couldn’t cost too much, it’s all done in a lab, and since a majority of people have partials or full sets by the time they are 50, seems like a giant racket. Dentistry appears to have caused more people to need dentures than to have prevented tooth loss in adults. But $20 k for dentures is a bit hard to swallow. $2k should be reasonable, if they could actually be worn comfortably by the recipient. Since prescription eye glasses can be ready in 17 minutes (for two pair) at less than $500, you’d think dentures could be somewhere in the same price range.
Exactly THIS.
I just had a full top denture put in and a partial at the bottom. I don't find them uncomfortable or annoying. They have changed my life completely in a great way. I intend on getting implants but that's going to cost $20,000. My top denture and bottom partial including extractions cost me $8000
@@donalddemo I live in New South Wales Australia so the prices are different. I've spoken with my dentist and he said whenever I want them he can do them for me. They also offer payment plans interest free which is great for people who can't afford the full price. 😁
Where did u go
They offer financial help here to but, you have to be approved by a company the dentist recommends. And if you're on disability then they won't give you credit because, if you can pay, they can't by law sue you or garnish your disability check!! So you won't get credit!!
Isn't a huge difference if dentures cost you $8000 and you could've put implants just for $12 000 more.
Sounds great. What kinda of denture type is that?
He pretty much tells us at the beginning, we're going to have to sell our cars to get new teeth.
I love the idea for my husband but seriously ... this is not available to the majority of people who can not financially handle this. Dental health is so important but Dental insurance is crappy.
check out dental schools, much cheaper
Care credit is awesome. It's for teeth work
that’s because Dentist charge an insane price for dental work, they are way over paid. If you actually figure out how much they get paid per hr. ( and that’s not for the fancy stuff) It’s insane.
My dental insurance is so crappy it’s not even funny. It pays a percentage of each procedure with a ridiculously silly maximum. Only preventative is paid for completely. $30,000?
It's not aimed at people who can't afford it, it's aimed at those who can
When people have to finance teeth the cost is way to much...when you have 65 million retired people and almost half the nation at the poverty level do really believe this an option...I would love to see a dentist like those of years past..did things at an affordable cost and because they cared..today it's always about the numbers and not the person...

I love my dentutes. I even have a spare one with a gold front tooth for occasions. To be real , i am a lower limb amputee and i would rather have my false teeth than a prosthetic. Teeth are very important.
We couldn't agree more about the importance of teeth. I would think though that if you could have permanent teeth as opposed to a removable denture, you would prefer permanent.

I went to the dentist and had a 'flipper made with 1 tooth', he charged me $325.00 so a few years later I went to a dentist in my hometown, he was the son of my former dentist who retired, he was also great at pulling teeth just like his dad, so I'd lost 3 more teeth and he made me a flipper with 3 teeth and only charged me $125.00, he wasn't out to make a killing but to help me smile again. This flipper was made of acrylic & was so comfortable, I guess it was like a temporary removal bridge, IDK but have been told by a dental assistant that "this thing" is only for temporary purposes but I've had it for 3 years, it has served me well, so last year I had a crown break off at the gum line & had to have the eye tooth removed. I have 5 implants & want to get snap in dentures. I think dentists over charge people way so much that we can't afford to get our teeth fixed. I had as much dental work done as possible before I retired because Medicare doesn't cover dental work. Last Nov. I did take out Dental Insurance but the policy must be in force for 6 months b4 they'll pay anything towards a crown or fillings, then you pay half of the price. Xrays & teeth cleaning are covered from the start. My teeth started going bad at age 50 from medications for arthritis.
May I ask wher this dentist is. His prices sound reasonable Thanks!
I understand. I'm a very young 55 but just had all my top teeth removed and have an immediate denture in right now. My surgery cost over $6,000.00 to have my teeth removed ,(and this is only the top ) and my immediate denture was $1,500.00 . I could cry right now but I'm hoping with adjustments and practice it will get better. Not to mention the pain because I am only 3 days after surgery. I'd love to get this done but the price is for the rich only.. Normal people can't afford this kind of treatment.

I so wish my husband could have this done. He has almost no teeth on the top of his mouth and it's been like this since he was 30 when he almost died because of high acid burning through his stomach and throwing up ruining his teeth. He is now almost 43 . Hard to sometimes find and keep jobs in his own business. People think he's an addict.
my husband is the same way. he has dental issues and didnt get dental care growing up so its affected his adult teeth or whats left of them. Dental care is expensive and oral health affects overall health as well as can lead to serious conditions and even dementia and alzheimers in advanced age. Self confidence is very important but its more than just about your smile. Good luck to you and your husband, i hope you can find a way to help him with his oral health.
Go get him the top denture and make damn sure the impression they take is tight fitting. Then fo Not let the dentist make huge teeth or straight across either. Find a smile, natural you like and show the dentist. Hint, travel to small towns and you'll find inexpensive dentures. A d get them White, it's your smile, think how good he will feel.

There has to be a AMAZING down to earth Dentist that can not only make people feel good about themselves and price just that alone would make everyone involved HAPPY!!! hope is always there
All the dentist's want to talk about is implants. Forget creating a beautiful set of dentures. If the dentist make the impression correctly(tightly/ the upper dentures will fit Snug..... nothing needed to hold them in. They also have ,2 implants for the bottom denture.
Dentures are certainly an option but come with many drawbacks. The bone in the mouth will continue to deteriorate without implants, causing the denture to stop fitting properly and it will need to be adjusted again and again. You also lose sensations of taste with dentures and it can cause mouth sores, gagging, and excess saliva. Your diet is also more restricted with dentures. Many of our patients started in dentures and hated them so much that they decided to do the 3 on 6™. There is no right answer for every person, but most people would prefer a permanent implant based solution like the 3 on 6™.

I no longer have my dentures. I can't go in public and can barely look in mirror. I'm on SSDI now and can barely make it month to month. My depression and anxiety are thru the roof even with medication.
I'm in the same boat. Nothing I can do!
Why don't they say how much it cost? It looks great i'm pretty sure a lot of people like me don't even bother calling them to find out how much it is.
Dental care has always been extremely expensive. And it's now even more expensive. With all the new technologies how to improve a dental implant or dentures, it should be affordable for everyone, without to struggle to paying it back. I mean everyone needs teeth, you have to eat properly in order to keep healthy and you need to be healthy that you can work so and if you work you need to talk and smile occasionally and if people see you have no teeth or a lot missing, unfortunately people judge you because of your image. So from my aspect teeth are important in life you need them.
I agree. If I’m ever rich I want to start a charity to help people with dental costs. But people shouldn’t have to ask for help on go fund me etc to cover basic health expenses
Gotta love our capitalism. Socialism booo? Or so say the elite and war mongers.

It all sounds quite simple and straightforward. ... BUT .. if you have bone that has receded, it has to be rebuilt, so's the screws can be inserted. BUT .. rebuiding the bone in many cases is not possible. I am a prime example of the latter, which resulted after an implant job that went terribly wrong.
Nice job
Can you tell us why it went bad?
@@Poepad The material that was put in to build the bone kept seeping out. Also when I snorted, ( every 2 mins) yellow pus came into my mouth. Which I beleived was a sinus infection. Which could well have been. So when the pins were removed, the Dental Specialist said my sinus cavities had to be rinsed out 10 times during the operation; to get all that pus out. What it boils down to, is, my Dentist is an amateur concerening doing Implants. He did this kinda work, just once a week on people. You need a guy that does it all day and 5 days a week - who then should be experienced at the Job . (hopefully)
Notice her main message. U may shell out half your saving and they do not stay in, do not work or it is iffy!
@@Poepad The Dentist did not pay sufficient attention to how the treatment was proceeding.
I received 9 implants 6 on top for a fixed non removable bridge and 3 on the bottom for a snap on denture for under 10k in Colombia. It was the same exact treatment and material they use in the USA. My question would be why does that same procedure in America Costs 50k to 75k. I’m so glad I never need to deal with a rip off American dentist again in my life. Colombia is absolutely safe and absolutely beautiful. You will not regret it.
A few reasons why you may pay less in Colombia: (1) Material quality: Although you say they used the same materials they use in the U.S., how can you be sure? Even doctors within the U.S. use different materials one from another, causing some doctors to be cheaper or more expensive: There are various classes of titanium, various classes of ceramics and porcelains, various types of bone graft, etc. (2) You have zero consumer protections. It is all but impossible to take a foreign company or individual to court and compel them to fix any damage done or reimburse you for damages. This lack of risk on their end means they can charge less knowing if something goes wrong they will not have to pay for it. (3) Looser government regulations: Colombia does not have national or state dental licensure examinations like the U.S. They also do not require continuing education courses like the U.S. (4) Cost of living: The cost of living in Colombia is about 1/4th the cost of the U.S. So naturally, businesses can charge less for all sorts of services. This also happens in the United States. For example, the cost of an apartment in Manhattan is a lot more than one in rural New York. Businesses in areas with a lower cost of living generally can charge less and stay in business. In the end, there's no right or wrong answer, but there are some real reasons why you might pay less in a foreign country and it's not because you're being ripped off by a greedy dentist in the U.S.
@@SmileSystems3on6 oh please. A friend of mine is a dentist and he nor my family could believe I was going to Colombia for dental treatment. My logic was that 50 million people live in Colombia along with some of the most beautiful women in the world could it be possible that there dentists are any different then the USA. When I was finished I brought a implant to bring home with me so my dentist friend could look at it and examine the X-rays and the quality of work. The truth is he couldn’t believe his eyes. He said he’s glad his career is almost over and he will be retiring soon because after seeing the work I had done he can not see future generations getting there dental work in America especially with the review system we have these days. No matter where dentist are located if there reviews are awful they will be out of business. Now everyone in my family and everyone else who told me I was crazy for going to Colombia for dental work is asking me where the office is located that I went to. Even if I had millions of dollars I wouldn’t ever give a dentist 50k to 80k for something I can get while vacationing for a fraction of the cost. The internet era and KZhead has opened ordinary citizens eyes that we have been being completely ripped off for way to long. This was one for the team the citizens deserve affordable dental. A life and days of pain, insecurities and suffering because of bad teeth are over.
@@ohyea2723 our disagreement with your comment is simply that you stated doctors in the U.S. (and by association, our company) is "ripping people off". That's not true. Yes, dental work in Colombia might be cheaper, but as was explained above, there are reasons for this that have nothing to do with greed or trying to rip people off. Colombian dentists want to make money and have a successful business to the same degree as American dentists.
Realistic fees for 3 bridges on 6~7 implants per arch could be around 15k in US.
More like twice that.
Oh, I misread that. I was thinking for upper and lower. You're right.
lord hear my prayer I'm believing in God to have this procedure done I've suffered from periodontal disease and its caused me to loose almost all of my teeth.. these procedures are expensive and I can't afford it hopefully someone reading this God would allow to bless me with this procedure..Thanking you in advance
Montana Smith I know how you feel praying for you now - I'm believing the Lord will provide what we need !
@@carolluecht907 I will come in agreement with you as we pray amen
Montana Smith - Just found out the exact SAME procedure in Mexico costs LESS THAN HALF of American dentists. Go to dayodental.com - I’m checking it out myself. 👍
hi when you do please keep me informed thank you
You do realize that periodontal disease is caused by diet (mostly)? There are many natural remedies, mostly involving eating pure foods. Costs nothing. Except an open mind and the willingness to try something different. Oregano Oil (just a drop in the mouth) is powerful stuff. The best toothpaste imaginable. After about 5 minutes its like your mouth is on fire but in a good way. A one ounce bottle lasts for months. A lot of experts believe the PH of the saliva is also vitally important.
I live in England and while we have the National Health Service, dentistry is not free. My dentist said one implant would cost me about £2500 - it's outrageous for what is essentially a few hours work.
My dentist told me to look outside the uk where it’s cheaper.
Implant prices are insane. I'd love to know how much the raw materials cost.
Hi I enjoyed watching this video. I live in the Caribbean on the islands Trinidad and Tobago. I would love to get that procedure done.
Over here in Europe (UK)! We all go to Turkey for our Turkey Teeth 🦷 👌 probably end up falling out in 5 years time, but to be honest I haven’t meet anyone yet who has had any problems. Costs around 3/5k for a full set!
I've known for a long time that I needed major dental work. Unfortunately my dental insurance offered 50% of major dental work. So a root canal cost $3000 of which cost me $1500. For one tooth. But the dental implants cost over $30,000. They will finance it with something of value close to the price. Your house! So you will be paying your mortgage, and the $30.000 loan. That's outrageous!0
I had a tooth that needed to be pulled. The Dentist wanted almost $500. I am retired, supporting myself and my out of work kid. I waited until it got really loose and pulled it out myself. Problem solved. I think we need a National Dental Plan. Some people go to Mexico and get it done for half the cost.
@@angelabroughton5980 awful, we need more affordable dental care. Many of my dental problems could have been taken care of before they got worse but I had no money for the dentist.
Mex. 70% off!!??
I've got a couple of wedding rings I can put up for collateral but I doubt if it would be acceptable 🤣
3 on six makes much more sense, more support, not such a long span to support. The cost is not practical but good system.
I HAD A DENTIST PULL ALL MY TEETH ...EVEN WHEN I TOLD HIM I HAD NO MONEY .... ITS BEEN OVER 4 YEARS ...IM IN A MESS I FINALLY GOT SOME MONEY TOGETHER BUT HAVING A HARD TIME FIGURING OUT WHAT I NEED ...THANK U

This video was filmed on my 68th birthday.! I despareatly need dental replacements in my whole mouth and the cost for a low income disabled person is just not attainable. I wish I could smile again .There just is no money for even the barest care. I'm so miserable.
What happens if I can't keep up the $300/month payments? Will someone come and repossess my teeth?

They will remove a tooth every missed payment

I cant wait until i can afford some teeth .
Well look at the bright side while saving up we won't be eating steak.
Are you kidding me I guarantee you it is so unaffordable wished I could afford it but who's got that kind of money anymore love to have my confidence back that's thrown out the window happy for those who can't afford it I'm sure they do a wonderful job.
Go to Mexico to get your teeth done and a vacation and still have thousands left over.
I certainly agree re his comment about self esteem and having the confidence to attend certain events as I used to. Now, I just don't go. It's really too bad, I know I'm missing out on a more vibrant social life. But, I'm just not in the same league,and it's all about money, shame! I could probably manage one half. One implant $875. so, say $450. I need six $2700.
Wow I wish I could have this. My teeth are so bad . Due to all my health issues. They look amazing

@smileclinicusa most people can't afford these prices 😞
I had all my teeth extracted when I was 19. I'm 76 now and the bone deterioration is so bad that I have had 5 dentists tell me my only hope is to have bone grafted from my hip to under my chin, give it a year to hold and grow more bone, then have implants made. I finally found a dentist to make me new uppers, but nobody would touch my lowers, where the most erosion is. I am talking over 25 years ago. At that time the cost was $20,000. So, here I am 25 years later with the same teeth. My biggest fear is that my car's airbag will go off and break my teeth. I would be toothless then for what's left of my life.
Air bags are pretty soft, be careful to don't knock on face by something, that could be worst.
What happened when you were 19 to have all your teeth extracted? You were very young for that.
I read almost everyone's comment here but none of them made me sad as much as yours did. I am feeling so sorry for what you fear about. I have just had all my teeth extracted at the age of 51 and these days I am trying to learn how to cope with my instant denture. It is quite a new challenge for me and I love life challenges. For me, I really deserved to lose all my teeth because I have never took care of them so I am going to take the life punishments as I deserve. Your story is quite different though, from 19 to 76 is quite a long journey. I just prayed for you to have a safe and sound life for as long as you would live. I would say, life is not that impressive with or without natural teeth in the mouth.
@@Revolutionized. It goes genetically. It almost doesn't matter you took good care of your teeth or you haven't it goes by genetic. Lot black people from Africa who immigrate to Canada or USA has totally healthy teeth even most of them never had any access to dentists or carre stuff, tooth paste, flossing ect. Fixed teeth can be always recognized. I have two fixed teeth and can be easy seen filings on them while there are people whose teeth never been touched by dentist's drill or filled by filling. Teeth bone is different, some has more kalcium while some doesn't. It's same as for example cancer, some people get it while some don't even they have totally same lifestyle, drinking, smoking working on polluted area ect. Also, I was always wondering what kind of teeth these actors, singers, celebrities have in their mouth. If bones loses by age lot's of them are very old but still have too white perfectly looking teeth. How bone loss doesn't affect them. All of them have luminaries over their teeth. How teeth under luminaries don't get decoy after while so they have to take luminaries off to fix tooth. If person put bridge it can keep maximum 22 to 25 years and starts loose.
I’m used to my normal denture. I feel strange without them. The comfortable. Can’t afford the ridiculous price
I watch this and i start to tear up. Im in so much pain. I cant eat i cant smile. My teeth are so bad .U guys are so lucky. Thanksgiving is tomorrow i cant even eat with my family. This would change my life. I will be contacting for consultation.

If u do have the procedure done I'm sure you'll be SMILING Non-Stop!! God bless you & best of wishes!!😀💕✌
Jose Centeno Good for you! Do it!
Any updates you can share, Jose?
Hey there Jose, how are you. I'm sorry to hear the pain you're in. What you need to do, is find a very good dentist. The best if possible. It might be expensive, but worth it in the end. Plus look to alternative medicine. Water or juice fasting, cleansing diets, good nutrition with vitamin supplements, have helped a lot of people. And don't forget to pray. It can't hurt. P.S. Don't give up. Many blessings to you. Regards, Mario.
Jose check Algodones Mexico close to Mesa Arizona prices there are so great . You can see real prices on their Webb page .
I want dental insurance that is like medical insurance. You pay a premium and everything is taken care of. Why can't we have this? Teeth is a part of one's health.
We wish this were the case too. We would love to be able to help more patients.
Medical insurance always has super high deductibles or premiums and they reject covering a lot of stuff tho. It’s all so unfair. People go broke paying for medical and dental costs.
I wish I could get the 3on6 but I can't pay for that much I've been without my top teeth for 4to5yrs now I'm 37yrs and a loving mother of 4 kids but I can't in joy life outside of my home cuz of how I look people stare and some make comments so I just stay in my home.u guys are doing a good job and I look forward to see more I like seeing other people's faces when they get them how happy they are and that makes me happy 💯😁

Izzy T: How much are they? Do you know?
DeeAnn Ray i got my implants for $2,500 per a tooth. i needed 2..
I cannot see how this is defendable, - there is 3D printing which i guess could lower the price. - i live in a country with free healthcare but dental is not free and very expensive. ..... and i find it offensive, they got a free Education. - they should give back and there should be a limit on how much they could charge. - but they talk with eachother, so competition is not a possibility because they then risk to be expelled from the group of doctors who has a clinic. -
Morten Jensen I totally agree with you! Over the years I have spent $100,000. After crowns 3times and $40,000. For upper only new crowns so I could have teeth when I’m older! The dentist put them in with gum disease, and EVERYONE fell out in 3yrs!!! No lawyers will take dental lawsuits! Now I have no money AND NO TEETH! They totally robbed me! With a smile!!!! 😩
It IS affordable to VERY affordable. Just not in the US of Trump. Just across the border you'll find extremely well-educated Dentists, many with a Ph.D., who will charge you just a fraction.
I have partial since college. Wearing upper and lower dentures when I was 55 and my bone are receding. I suffered since and it's sooo painful on my gums. I stopped complaining to my dentist.
Sad I wish you could find a better option, you shouldn’t have to suffer ❤️
quite an impressive presentation....
Thank you kindly!
Usually when a person gets implants the ridges have shrunk so much they no longer support a denture properly. Over dentures on implants replace thr ridge loss with acrylic for proper lip support.Unfortunately 3 on 6 seems to be a good alternative ,but theirs no added acrylic for gum support and without gum between the teeth ,the teeth tend to look like a row of chicklets and are very expensive.
Appreciate the response Larry. You aren't wrong, in the sense that sometimes the 3 on 6 isn't the best solution when there has been significant bone loss. We also offer all on x in those circumstances. However, there are a lot of things that can be done to enhance the bone and tissue to make it so good bone doesn't have to be removed for the placement of a prosthetic.
Any dental work will break the bank.
DENTISTS are greedy mf'ers!! They want you pay for their education 10,000 X OVER!! AND, most of them got financial help to go to school. They certainly didn't pay anymore than an MD and you can get help with medical bills. BUT not dental. AND, YES , dental health is very important, but, they call it ' cosmetic '!! My ass, so people should go around toothless and sick?? Shameless jerks.
@@Melinda8162 To be fair ... the Insurance companies call it cosmetic ... not the dentists. Insurance doesn't want to pay for it. Dental insurance is generally not very good.
@@Melinda8162 You should direct your anger to the insurance companies. Medical has 1 mil max, dental $1500-2000.
@Leslie Smith Correct, covered by Medicare for All!
Leslie Smith I had a problem with my last root canal. Went to two different dentist I wanted that tooth pulled. They said it was in my sinus. So I go to an ENT. Had surgery and it wasn’t my sinus it was an abscess in that tooth. At that time I was still on my company insurance. Out of pocket for it was $1600, plus it was done at an outpatient, so their was the cost for putting me to sleep. At least with Medicare they paid their 80% and supplement will pay the other #20. But With Delta Dentist pays $1400 and that is it. The abscess could of got in my blood stream and can kill you. Felt like telling those two dentist they should of paid for my Out of pocket! Then had To find the dentist that pulled the rest of my teeth! I told you all the rest of my problems with me teeth!
I need this this so badly, I wish I could afford this. I pray for help.
As a 32 year old, I do too!! I completely understand. I've broken down a few times watching these videos to see if it's even a possibility in the near future.

anjuman786ara Anjuman Ara I have TMJ and can not stand to hold my mouth open long at a time! My mouth is sunken, I have dentures. Went three months without any teeth. The dentist I went to wanted my gums to fulling heal before getting impression, then the teeth were terrible and gums so big and hurt my gums, could not close my my mouth. I mailed him those teeth back the next day after I got them, and the went to a local dentist and got some dentures. They look good in my mouth but eating another thing. This is my second set of dentures not counting the ones I mailed back t the dentist that pulled my teeth!
@@jennieclement2811 yes I can understand your pain

I wish I could afford this😭 I badly needed this. I can't even smile because my teeth were so bad💔😭
My teeth are all jacked up I smile like I am taking a picture.
If you have Medicaid, depending on your state, you can get free dentures.
I agree with anyone that realizes that needing this procedure, and insurance companies should under no terms consider this cosmetic when dentures cause so many problems for people such as myself who are now suffering from malnutrition due to the loss of taste and the extremely of amount of difficulties dealing with traditional dentures. Insurance companies should be ashamed of themselves. So Now my medical expenses are going to go up due to needing to see a gastrologist due to severe stomach issues from the amount of adhesive having to be swallowed, and poor diet due to just skipping eating altogether. Can't taste the food anyway just the adhesive.
Can you get these if you have gum recession issues?
Sending this to my uncle who needs this solution. The lesson, take care of your teeth before you need this!
Sadly to say this is not a perfect world where every 1 has perfect teeth. Teeth do go bad maybe genetic or meds causes them to or accidents. Not every 1 is as fortunate.
@@cindymorgan3072 Very true Cindy. However that affects a very small proportion of people. Just look at what children are eating and drinking from a, young age. Carbonated drinks, sugary sweets, ice cream, chocolate, the list goes on and on. In moderation this is ok, the reality is they don't moderate. Then later it's tobacco on top. Smoking absolutely destroys teeth and gums. People will always tend to blame anything but themselves. Aside from the small percentage of people with genetic weakness or problems as a result of a disease, the vast majority are just not taking care of themselves. The average American has lost 12 teeth by the time they're 50, 69% of all adults between 35 and 44 have lost at least some permanent teeth, and over 20 million are using dentures, plus millions, exact figure isn't known, have implants. That huge number has nothing to do with medication or genetics, it's the terrible diet, lack of oral hygiene, and failure to visit the dentist once or twice a year that's responsible for most of that. We need to start with the kids. The stuff that's marketed to them is the cause of bad teeth, obesity and an epidemic of type 2 diabetes in people as young as 18 years old. The US is by far the unhealthiest developed nation on earth, followed closely, strangely enough by the UK. If the root problems of diet are not solved people are doomed to an unhealthy short life. Ironically the medications that cause oral problems are often drugs used to fight diabetes and cancer. It's a vicious circle.
Please l have taken good care of my teeth all of my adult life and my father took great care of them before that.. l came down with breast cancer in 2013 after radiology and chemo therapy l then was diagnosed with follicular lymphoma. Which is not curable in my case. Now 2022 and l now have 5 and 1/2 teeth left in my mouth and a terrible fitting upper denture. I walked out of the dentist office when l first tried to get dentures because of his office girl who said l did not make a payment when l did. It was the day he pulled all of my top teeth. Went to another dentist and had the upper arch made. Tried to talk to the first dentist but he refused to speak to me. I lost almost all of my teeth because of cancer treatment. But most people already pre judge me of why l have no teeth.
Of course, and I do sympathise with you. There are situations including an illness or genetic condition that causes tooth loss. However 57% of Americans who are ages 65 to 74 wear some form of dentures 51% of Americans ages 55 to 64 have either full or partial dentures and an incredible 29%of Americans ages 45 to 55 wear dentures. 19% aged 18-44 have dentures. That's nothing to do with disease or genetics. Those figures are horrendous and are mostly down to bad diet, sugary drinks, candy, sweetened cereals, and not visiting the dentist regularly. For most a change of diet, regular brushing and flossing, and a once or twice yearly visit to a dentist will keep their teeth healthy. I'm over 60, our mum brought us as soon as the first permanent tooth erupted. I and my younger brother and older sister have all our teeth. I've a crown on one that got broken when I had a climbing accident. Most people will keep their teeth it they spend a little time looking after them. I'm not criticising you, it wasn't your fault.
Sok....I've had full upper for 7yrs now and noone can even tell...I'm due for a new set and they're going to look even better.😄 Besides I've gotten use to em....AND think of it THIS WAY....It Is A BIG Advantage NOT Having Teeth Sometimes if U know what I mean 😉
That's fine if you have a normal roof in your mouth. I have a tarus and will have to get it removed if I need to get dentures. More pain and money.
I have spent over 50,00 on a 4 tooth bridge. I had the bone grafts and sinus lift. I had them 3 years and had to get them removed because of bone loss. Now I am going to get hybrid dentures on the top. I had bone grafts and sinus lift surgery and will get the 6 implants in 6 months. That surgery was 23,00.00. It is extremely expensive.
Hi Gaye. I wish you would have found us first! Please give us a call if we can help.

I now have a mail order denture that I'm very happy with. It is a full denture, but I will be getting a horse shoe denture soon. I want my gums to heal properly.
That's what I want is the horse shoe but either one dentist don't do it or the other one says I don't want it cause I would have to have much more glue 🙄
And at affordable prices .I know what your talking about
What’s a mail order denture?
@smileclinic do you also use the 3 on six technique with mini dental implants for people that don't have the required bone needed for the standard implant?
On one of my implants, there wasn't enough bone, he used pig bone & I had a 6 month healing time before he put in the main component then my dentist made the crown it cost me about $6,000.00 for the one implant, the other 4 inplants averaged around $2,000.00 each.
Thanks for the info
Is this available in South Africa?
It all depends on the lab and how they make the dentures. I use to work in dentistry for over 20yrs. Several implants are recommended to keep dentures more stable but extremely expensive and not everyone has the bone structure for implants
I completely agree with you, decided against implants due to metal allergy and cost. However I found a clinic that specializing in creating the best Dentures established 1978 and glowing reviews. Was scared to death with Dentures but now feel better knowing there are different classes of Dentures.

I’m curious to know give or take how much. I can save or get a loan to pay for. Im not close to a location so I would have to travel.
Hi Anita. The 3 on 6 is $15k per arch, or $30k for a full mouth. We have financing options from $350/mo per arch with good credit. Extractions and bone grafting are extra. We frequently have people travel from out of state to our offices. We usually try to coordinate it so that you can do the consultation and scans one day, and the implants, with the temporary teeth placed the next day. I'm happy to get you in touch with the office manager there to help with a consultation and coordinate travel and hotel. Let me know if you have any questions or feel free to give us a call at 888-877-5790.
Im 59& because of medications ive been taking for nearly 20yrs my teeth started turning to chalk & decaying at the gum line sbout 3yrs ago. i had my last 6extracted a few mos ago. i havent smiled & very seldom speak to people in public. i havent even had anyone in my home since May 2019. its embarrassing & people are cruel when you have bad or missing teeth i might look like im 80but . at least i wont ever have a dam toothache again. i wish i could afford even a top plate but i live on a fixed income. these are beautiful teeth on this video but totally overpriced. im depressed now more than ever 💔
I understand. I need teeth for medical reasons. Since my life is in danger, you would think insurance would pay for it. I want to smile too. I lost them because of chemo. Well, they are rotten. I am so embarrassed.
I know the feeling, I’m sorry , I know that feeling
So sorry! Why is dentistry so stinking expensive? I'm close in age to you and have all my teeth but they are not in good shape at all. Is there are a way you could get some cheap dentures?
Cathy T - I just found out about the same procedure in Mexico. It’s LESS THAN HALF THE COST of American dentists. Go to dayodental.com - Definitely worth checking into.👍
S R omg me too!!!
I just got all on four 40k I had to refinance my house but having a smile it's priceless and I'm very happy 😁
Glad to hear you are happy with your treatment!
You guys can go abroad if you want them done. Its cheaper in the Middle East and Asia. You can also enjoy mini trip while you're at it. But make sure you go to someone who has ALOT of proper experiences with dental implants. Otherwise things can go wrong.
And they often do go horribly wrong. Good luck getting any consumer protections when you are dealing with overseas dental work.
This is a very cool treatment. But why is there no patient journey vlogs or updates. I can't find anything online regarding someone's experience with the 3 on 6 that's not provided by the clinic.
I mean, I could? I've already gone thru the implant stage and am healing but this is something I could kinda do if wanted?
Maybe because it's too expensive to even talk about.???

@@codyglasson8695 Hi Cody! I was curious how your experience has been. Which location did you go to and are you happy with having this procedure?
@@amygreaves5303 Hi Amy! I went to the Taylorsville location as it was closer. (I'm from Wyoming so this is 14hrs round trip 🤣) My experience has been great. Dr. Robert's and his team really are amazing. I had zero pain after extraction/implants I opted to be put under during the process and if it's possible for you, I highly recommend it. I was in dentures for about a year due to Covid/financial situations. However, they are now moving immediately to the screw it temporarily during the healing process. I CANNOT be any any happier with the procedure.
I failed my bronze acting exam because my dentures flew out. Yes it got a laugh but this has gone on since I was a child. I had to have what they termed as a 3 in 1 operation. I was forced to wear a brace as a child the metal I was allergic to. I was very ill on numerous occasions because Doctors would not take my metal allergy serious. I am allergic to all metal except gold silver. I nearly died after having surgical steel clips to close my operation.
I love this, I'm from the Philippines
Excellent...💙
