I appreciate your videos as I look into this very subject….trying to fix the mess or go all on four…upper and lower….I have the $$ but it’s hard to spend that kinda of money…thank you…
After viewing several of your videos I sure wished I lived in Texas, but I don't, I live in Oregon. Your videos gave me a wealth of information and now I have a better understanding about Denture Implants. I want to watch all of the videos that you prepared and I see that there are many more. I want to have as much information as I can before I commit to the procedure. I am 74 years old and my teeth have failed me. About 10 years ago I started taking a medication that literally destroyed my teeth and as I am writing this with tears in my eyes. My teeth were in very good condition, I took care of my teeth, I had regular checkups, I brushed, I flossed and then all hell broke loose. I never in my wildest dreams thought that a prescription medication could due such damage. About 5 years into taking the medication my teeth started to decay. I went to the dentist and spent about $13 thousand for repairs which included some extractions, new crowns, fillings and a bridge. I thought that this would be all that I would need, as long as I took good care of teeth, I was wrong. My teeth started falling out, my bridge even fell out and now my mouth is an embarrassment. I have no doubt in my mind that I need Denture Implants. The questions and fears that I had were mostly addressed in your videos. I still want to do a little more research and since I financially can't come to your facility, your videos will have to do. My number one concern is cost. I am on a fixed income and for the life of me, I haven't figured out how I am going to pay for the implants but I feel I can't wait much longer. I need to see what kind of assistance, if any, is available for me. I wrote this to warn people that sometimes, something as simple as taking medication for your health, can also be unhealthy and that just having good oral hygiene might not always be enough. I also feel age has something to do with it as well. I look forward to watching more of your videos so that I have as much information as necessary going forward.
My husband and I are on fixed income. We both had all of our teeth removed. Then both of us are getting dentures. My mom is in her 70s. She has five individual implants. It cost her $5,000 per implant. Four of them failed. She had to have them done again. They charged her the full price each time. The 5th one got infected and had to be done again. She would have been better off to get partial denture. The idea this is going to solve all your problems. Is simply not true. There is risk of infection and implant failure.
Thank you for your videos!!!! You’ve helped me through so much after my procedure I just had for my implants on top and bottom!!!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
I'm flying into Houston IAH airport this May the 24th. I will be staying with my father in Montgomery Tx. I'm so going to make a consultation with Y'all while I'm there. I live in Southern California, and I haven't been able to find not one dang Dentist that I feel comfortable enough to let into my mouth let alone implant titanium rods into me. and only a scant few will use IV sedation! for the all on 4 proceedure! I'm frustrated and depressed. So I hope to see Ya'll in late May.
It was helpful in many ways I just had a consultation yesterday. And what I heard from you I feel more comfortable that you would actually make sure I get what would be best in my budget. Do you offer financing available in your practice? I’m in NJ but for proper work and honest pricing I would fly out and get my work done there.
Hi i have peridontal disease and need ALOT of work done in my mouth. I have an orthodontist appointment in 2 weeks, i live in NC. And may consider making an appointment with u all and traveling out your way if this doctor doesn't work out. Watching some of your videos and im considering All on 4. I dont want to remove my teeth but i will do whatever is necessary to keep most of my teeth and my 2 large teeth n front are already lose. Thank you for great info
In the case of infection and food allergies, and metal allergy, are you using the Ceramic coated or zirconium coated titanium implants for those patients? There's no inflammatory reaction, so the tissue stays adhered.
You guys are awesome. Another thing to consider is we are living so long that at this point most humans will outlive their teeth. And if you don’t have perfect teeth like a Hollywood smile. Might as well get the all in fours because you can choose how you want your teeth to look. So instead of just getting root canals in caps which will help with function and will sometimes look better or worse depending. And you’ll definitely be in pain as these teeth fell over and over. You can walk out with perfect teeth and never have to worry about any of that ever again. You come in For your routine cleanings or your snap on dentures take good care of yourself and get your implants checked every year do you have a much easier life I will never have to worry about the pain of having teeth anymore
@@northtexasdentalsurgerydo Doc. Please use a mic for these videos. It's difficult to hear because of the room you're in. I just found your channel couple days ago. Good service. I'm more informed now as a patient.
Hello, I would love to interview you about dental implants from a patient perspective so that you can address loads of questions that patients have but are afraid to ask.
Thank You for the videos. I currently have been told that I need a bone graft. I was told that I have bone loss at the at the tip of a root on a tooth that had a root canal. My tooth is loose. I’ve been sent to an Endodontics practice for another opinion. Does this sound right?
I had the snap on denture procedure done last year and am so glad I did! No more pain I can smile and not be embarrassed anymore and I can eat anything! For me it was an 8 month process surgery last september and got my final snap in dentures in may. The recovery is rough I won't lie but it IS worth it.
@@GoFarFarAway. I had them done at a dental school. It was much cheaper I suggest you do the same if you are able. With all the extractions and for top and bottom total cost was $16,000.
I am a 65 yr old woman , 5 yrs ago I had chemo, & my teeth have been terribly deteriorating since, I finally got alittle $$ 2 fix them, i don’t want snap in 4 on 4 whatever, def no dentures, im a bit vain, my girlfriend just got all new veneers $26,000, which is like all implants rite? I know more expensive but that’s what I really want, can I have your opinion dr Choi ? Ive been watchg your TH-cam, im very confused, thank u- joann Maunder
I'm exactly like the patient you described. I am tired of being in pain and I know something is wrong already 3000$ burned and cuasing me nose bleeds I know it's correlating I was so healthy before March now very sick 💔 I'm thinking renewing my passport since I'm in Vancouver Canada to fly over to Texas to come to you before I loose gum since I want my teeth out 💔
Nearly 2 years ago I purchased my "third" set of teeth, i.e all-on-4, constructed of nano-ceramic. No longer did I have overly yellow teeth from tetracycline-laced youth. They restructured my bite, from a very narrow overbite (too narrow for my thumb) to a perfect smile. Ten years to save up for it but well worth it.
All I want is this! years and years of suffering trying everything to afford to fix my teeth. I barely eat, have not smiled in literally 5 years. Cant even talk to my family members. What does someone do when they are hopeless?
I would look for low income dental clinic. Where they can remove your bad teeth. My extractions were based on our income. My husband and I can’t afford dentures right now. So I found top and bottom veneers for $50. On Amazon until I can afford dentures. It will take year is the way. I wish it was of course not. But finding solution to my problem. Which is getting rid of my infected teeth. Was the only option. If you wait it makes things a lot worse. I had two teeth that infection spread to the bone in my jaw. Then spreading to my healthy teeth too. I had no pain at all. I am telling you not too wait. As the dentist said it is unwise to do that. I was lucky it didn’t spread to my heart or brain. Which would have been life threatening. Get them pulled as soon as possible.
I need to come see you guys - I was quoted 55k for AO4 they did scan an all here in Arlington Tx I was seriously shocked an immediately worried about how would I get 55k for my teeth 😮
Why would you want to travel to North Texas dental surgery to have the work done when they're going to charge you precisely the same exorbitant amount of money as the practice who quoted you 55k. At least having your teeth done locally will save you from having to buy a few tanks of gas.
@@elizabethecarlisle1045good point Elizabeth, I saw dentist choi say in a post his price is 21.5k per arch ( I am not sure what material- zirconia perhaps as final ) . Elizabeth do you know any place that charges a good price in the my tri state area and is good quality ? Thanks
It is really scary when you need a lot of work. Then are not sure what you should do. I know I felt the same way before I made my decision. Just be patient with yourself. It is big decision.
on a lateral fracture tooth #30, can a surgical extraction be done right away with a bone graft,which type can be done with little pain, I talk for a living and I don't know how long I wouldn't be able to do my job? what is the best bone graft for the infection has destroyed bone on tooth 30
Can you recommend anyone in the Sacramento area for all on four? My prostodondist, periodontist and Dentist all retired, I guess I was too much for them or after all the times they saw me they were able to retire.
Can you talk about zirconium coated Implants to avoid the titanium reaction the tissues can have from the titanium touching the tissue? Can you install a bone graft after a jawbone heals from antibiotic treatment?
What should be the average price for all on 4? Have gotten 2 very different prices. I know prices will vary depending on location, have had to have significant dental work over the years. Had one dentist that put post in that in less than a year had to be removed and replaced with post that go to about an inch below my eyes. Not an exaggeration either. My top teeth are now fine, after getting said post redone. I have had root canals and caps on my bottom teeth, which I am now told need to be replaced with implants/ all on four. I will just come out and say it, I was quoted 35k-45k for bottoms. Supposed to be able to walk out with teeth. Considering I have around 50k already in my teeth, I don't want to walk around with no bottom teeth.
i am based in Romania . this boys in US are too happy to do implants on you and all on four discarding fixing due to costs but here for example, i have a molar severed at the gum , the dentist did root canal put some sort of screw in that root rebuilt the molar enough to put a crown on it . And it lasted 10 years , when i have chewed on some olive seed it broke, then the dentist rebuilt it again last month . So yeah in US the cost is bloody high , dentist don t like to spend time repairing . If you have teeth that can be repaired go to places like Romania Bulgaria Turkey . A crown here is 200-250$ zirconia, root canals ~200$ and try to get as much use out of your teeth rather then removing them
Well I think you guys are some great doctors wish we had more like you here but I must say dental prices and extra that is not needed has got out of control my dentist told me I had two teeth that needed to have crowns over $4000.00 and I was telling him I can not afford implants and I need to get a partial so I told him I will have the two teeth pulled and than make a partial the whole dental thing just like everything else is out of control as far as really helping your patient just not looking out for people now just the money in pocket when teeth start to close more than your home omg
I was in the same position as you are. I just had the last of the teeth pulled. Will be getting dentures. Is this the outcome I wanted. No 15 years ago my teeth could have been saved. Unfortunately even with insurance I didn’t have $9,000 to save them. My choice was easy. Dentures can replace my teeth. Infection that spreads to my heart or brain. Will eventually kill me. People need to be realistic about what they can afford. Make wise choices about treatment. Because dental infection is nothing to mess with.
I am 22 and have had my 4 front teeth all root canals that have to be redone crowns don’t fit and did not fill to the apex I also have to get a apicoectomy because the infection has ate away at my bone for tooth 7 8 the abscess is large covering 7 and 8 Im worried getting the apicoectomy bone won’t heal for a option for implants I also need more root canals on 11 12 13 and my molars should I go through the full mouth rehabilitation or just do a all on 4 plz help as I don’t know what to do
the writing is on the wall. do an all on 4. all those root canals failed and is why you need apicoectomy now. of course, i'd have to see your x-rays but unfortunately it truly does sound like the writing is on the wall.
@@northtexasdentalsurgery thanks for replying how much would a all on 4 upper arch made of zirconia cost or even both upper and lower and if I flew in would you be able to do it?
Dr. Choi, One of the main concerns/questions I have regarding the All on 4 procedure vs. Restoration with implants and crowns. My concern is…What happens to the integrity of my mouth if I were to consider the All on 4? Will I be faced with collapse or hollowing around my mouth much sooner by going that route? This is something no one seems to talk about.
Dental malpractice is what Castle Dental did to me and now I can't trust any dentist..I got a quote for 30k for a set of permanent dentures..like I have 30k laying around..
I live in Louisville Kentucky. Do people travel from long distances to get all on 4’s from you? I have been watching your videos and you seem more trustworthy than many of my local dentists. If people do travel long distances, about how many appointments does it take to get an all on 4?
I have upper and lower fixed overdentures on 6 implants on top and 4 on bottom. I’ve had them a long time and X-rays show very healthy bone structure. I need to replace because the teeth have worn some. Would you be able to replace the over denture and improve my smile?
My son is getting all teeth pulled and full implants top and bottom. Dr is going to install 11 implants to secure the teeth to. A lab group is coming in to create his teeth profile. He’s 35 years old. The cost is 58K. The Dr. Comes with great credentials. We has also been to another Dr. Who wants to do the same, 11 implants with zirconium teeth for 35K. I’m paying for it! What’s your take? The 35k dr showed us infected bubbles he said would need to be cleaned out. The 58k dr didn’t bring this up at all. I am really confused. Can u give me any guidance? The 35k dr. office is a small family owned practice with his kids running around. His sales person told us normally it would cost 55k but we will do it for 35k. The 58k dr has a large very professional office with lots of employees and this lab group that’s going to come in and make his teeth so he can walk out with new teeth the same day. Neither dr. mentioned anything about bone grafts? I think they are positioning implants where there is enough bone to support the implants. What’s your thoughts on this?
Watch out for the big fancy offices with the high prices. They're usually ripoffs who market the hell out of themselves. Ask both to see their cases that they've done. Look closely at their work. I am close friends with an unbelievable NYC dentist and she tells me it's all in the lab. Crap labs dentists can charge cheaper prices. Excellent labs can be more expensive. But if they're marketing themselves and have a big office, they're pushing for high sales to pay for all that stuff. Tough call. Ask to see their work. Several cases, if possible. I've scanned numerous dentists in my area who offer these and their work is HORRID. So many of them look so square or too big or they offer no photos at all. I've seen some that looked so fake that just looking at the photos made me appalled and I left their websites.
did somebody's upper and lower all on 4 for $35k today. she was gonna go to mexico but ended up doing it with us. we use something called proceed financing.
@@northtexasdentalsurgery what about when you have a very poor credit score from not tracking it and get denied? why cant i find a solution. why is my life ruined over a simple mistake. I wish i had money
First your life is not ruined. I have bad credit too. You are going to need to find another solution to replace your teeth. Which is getting removable dentures. Like I am.
I have already had all my teeth removed and and Ready to get my implants cost was 10,000 ,, But for the implants I wonted with all in 6 they wonted 70,000 dollars hear in USA so In about 2 months I will be going to Turkey get them 6 all in one don for 17,000 dollars NOT 70,000 dollars all in 4 is about 11,000 upper and lower
why do you guys advocate for implant? maybe cause you guys do implant? what's wrong with denture? i know young ppl from 20 years old all the way to 80 years old that does denture.
That is what I am getting. What worries me. Is someone like myself. Who doesn’t have any money. But has advanced tooth decay. With infection spreading. Will decide not to have them pulled. Because they want implants. Which can result in them dying due to dental infection. It seems like me. Telling them that looking for low income dental clinic. Get the teeth pulled then get dentures they never respond. There is more than one way to replace missing teeth.
I'll make a video about it one day. all on 4,6,8, fp1. all the same. we just call it all on 4. we end up placing at least 6 implants an arch on most patients
IHi. Doc I'm 65yrs old been saving for yrs. would love to have all on 4 top and bottom just have been so expensive. I live on a limited income same as everybody else. I do have some implants aat the top. I wanted to know Doc if you do some Pro-Bono to help with the cost. Please contact me back Ms, DIann
The root canals and filling are the reason my teeth look the way they do. Every single root canal I have had has ended up breaking and causing infection. Ridiculous!! I will never submit to another root canal for the rest of my life! Garbage treatment!

Unfortunately even with insurance I didn’t have $9,000 to save them. My choice was easy. Dentures can replace my teeth. Infection that spreads to my heart or brain. Will eventually kill me. People need to be realistic about what they can afford. Make wise choices about treatment. Because dental infection is nothing to mess with.
Do yall have a offices in Sa tx
Where ate u located
Is IV sedation safe for someone that takes otc sleeping gummy most nights? Olly brand

I am 22 and have had my 4 front teeth all root canals that have to be redone crowns don’t fit and did not fill to the apex I also have to get a apicoectomy because the infection has ate away at my bone for tooth 7 8 the abscess is large covering 7 and 8 Im worried getting the apicoectomy bone won’t heal for a option for implants I also need more root canals on 11 12 13 and my molars should I go through the full mouth rehabilitation or just do a all on 4 plz help as I don’t know what to do
the writing is on the wall. do an all on 4. all those root canals failed and is why you need apicoectomy now. of course, i'd have to see your x-rays but unfortunately it truly does sound like the writing is on the wall.
@@northtexasdentalsurgery thanks for replying how much would a all on 4 upper arch made of zirconia cost or even both upper and lower and if I flew in would you be able to do it?
Dr. Choi, One of the main concerns/questions I have regarding the All on 4 procedure vs. Restoration with implants and crowns.
My concern is…What happens to the integrity of my mouth if I were to consider the All on 4? Will I be faced with collapse or hollowing around my mouth much sooner by going that route? This is something no one seems to talk about.
Dental malpractice is what Castle Dental did to me and now I can't trust any dentist..I got a quote for 30k for a set of permanent dentures..like I have 30k laying around..
You will have to go with removable dentures. They cost less than $1,000. The ones I want are $500 for full set on Etsy.
Amazing
I live in Louisville Kentucky. Do people travel from long distances to get all on 4’s from you? I have been watching your videos and you seem more trustworthy than many of my local dentists. If people do travel long distances, about how many appointments does it take to get an all on 4?
they do. it takes 3 visits over 4 months. let us know if you're ever interested.
I have upper and lower fixed overdentures on 6 implants on top and 4 on bottom. I’ve had them a long time and X-rays show very healthy bone structure. I need to replace because the teeth have worn some. Would you be able to replace the over denture and improve my smile?
My son is getting all teeth pulled and full implants top and bottom. Dr is going to install 11 implants to secure the teeth to. A lab group is coming in to create his teeth profile. He’s 35 years old. The cost is 58K. The Dr. Comes with great credentials. We has also been to another Dr. Who wants to do the same, 11 implants with zirconium teeth for 35K. I’m paying for it! What’s your take? The 35k dr showed us infected bubbles he said would need to be cleaned out. The 58k dr didn’t bring this up at all. I am really confused. Can u give me any guidance? The 35k dr. office is a small family owned practice with his kids running around. His sales person told us normally it would cost 55k but we will do it for 35k. The 58k dr has a large very professional office with lots of employees and this lab group that’s going to come in and make his teeth so he can walk out with new teeth the same day. Neither dr. mentioned anything about bone grafts? I think they are positioning implants where there is enough bone to support the implants. What’s your thoughts on this?
Watch out for the big fancy offices with the high prices. They're usually ripoffs who market the hell out of themselves. Ask both to see their cases that they've done. Look closely at their work. I am close friends with an unbelievable NYC dentist and she tells me it's all in the lab. Crap labs dentists can charge cheaper prices. Excellent labs can be more expensive. But if they're marketing themselves and have a big office, they're pushing for high sales to pay for all that stuff. Tough call. Ask to see their work. Several cases, if possible. I've scanned numerous dentists in my area who offer these and their work is HORRID. So many of them look so square or too big or they offer no photos at all. I've seen some that looked so fake that just looking at the photos made me appalled and I left their websites.
What problems would I have to consider over time with the all on 4 vs snap on?
What are the cost of say nanoceramic vs zirconia
we charge the same at our practice. $21.5k
@@northtexasdentalsurgery $21.5k price for full upper and lower prosthesis?
What financing options are available for all on 4 top and bottom?
Most use Care Credit..but as the name implies..you need decent credit. My dentist said some people mortgage their house..these procedures are $50,000
did somebody's upper and lower all on 4 for $35k today. she was gonna go to mexico but ended up doing it with us. we use something called proceed financing.
@@northtexasdentalsurgery what about when you have a very poor credit score from not tracking it and get denied? why cant i find a solution. why is my life ruined over a simple mistake. I wish i had money
First your life is not ruined. I have bad credit too. You are going to need to find another solution to replace your teeth. Which is getting removable dentures. Like I am.
I have already had all my teeth removed and and Ready to get my implants cost was 10,000 ,, But for the implants I wonted with all in 6 they wonted 70,000 dollars hear in USA so In about 2 months I will be going to Turkey get them 6 all in one don for 17,000 dollars NOT 70,000 dollars all in 4 is about 11,000 upper and lower
wow, who the heck was charging you 70k. where do you live?
Where in Turkey?
Do you accept dental insurance?
Dental insurance doesn’t cover implants. They only cover removable dentures.
@@angelaschaefer5883 not true at all
@@angelaschaefer5883 My insurance covers a significant amount.
The length of time you take to tell the price means it's a sizeable amount. Geezzzzz why delay the inevitable?
Why is every Dentist $55,000? Is this price fixing? Why is there no variation in price?
why do you guys advocate for implant? maybe cause you guys do implant? what's wrong with denture? i know young ppl from 20 years old all the way to 80 years old that does denture.
That is what I am getting. What worries me. Is someone like myself. Who doesn’t have any money. But has advanced tooth decay. With infection spreading. Will decide not to have them pulled. Because they want implants. Which can result in them dying due to dental infection. It seems like me. Telling them that looking for low income dental clinic. Get the teeth pulled then get dentures they never respond. There is more than one way to replace missing teeth.
I haven't seen you talk about AO6, AO8, or FP1. Any reason why?
I'll make a video about it one day. all on 4,6,8, fp1. all the same. we just call it all on 4. we end up placing at least 6 implants an arch on most patients
@@northtexasdentalsurgery Looking forward to your thoughts on these options.
IHi. Doc I'm 65yrs old been saving for yrs. would love to have all on 4 top and bottom just have been so expensive. I live on a limited income same as everybody else. I do have some implants aat the top. I wanted to know Doc if you do some Pro-Bono to help with the cost. Please contact me back
Ms, DIann
The root canals and filling are the reason my teeth look the way they do. Every single root canal I have had has ended up breaking and causing infection. Ridiculous!! I will never submit to another root canal for the rest of my life! Garbage treatment!
