A flat? Scratch that broke tooth? Yep. Had a meeting in Palatka and on the way to check the gates and then deal with security cameras and feed up the barn cats I decided a piece of gum was a good idea. Old crown......did not just pull off......the darn underlying tooth cracked loose. Getting old sucks. Only positive is that this time they're going to mount a titanium stud so should be done with this nonsense. Of course......at least $2K going away.......

Yeah a flat would be a lot less painful, literally.

Dentists are worse thieves than lawyers or doctors. That implant cost just a few dollars in metal...and enormous profits for the dentist. Obscene.

I took my wife to the dentist Monday. The estimate was over $6,000. I couldn't believe it.

I have 2 implants, one was $2k about 15 years ago. The other was five years ago and was $3k.

I've had full implants for the last 15 years. I wore out the first set of dentures after 10 years and I'm now on my second set. Best money I ever spent.

2k would have been a great price, except in Colombia. Sorry for you pain in the pocketbook, I hate dentists, and have to frequent them often
