There's an elephant in the room...
If you are suffering in pain due to the condition of your teeth and/or are lacking simple daily function such as being able to chew properly, we may be able to establish necessity for your dental implant treatment and have your medical insurance (not dental insurance!) step in to pay for it. Here at Esteem Dental Implants - McKinney, we are one of the few dental offices in the entire country with special credentialing that allows us to bill in-network with medical insurance for full-arch dental implants. This unique credentialing, along with our purpose-built medical billing team is what makes filing for this type of coverage possible. The program is limited to certain insurance plans, so take our 60-second smile quiz to see if you qualify, and to schedule a call with one of our medical necessity specialists!
Why Medical insurance?
Medical and dental insurance are two completely different things. Dental insurance often provides little-to-no coverage for dental implants, due to the fact that the treatment is widely categorized as "cosmetic" by insurance. This leaves patients with out-of-pocket expenses ranging from $25,000 to $50,000+ for full-mouth dental implant treatment. While this type of treatment is worth every penny, it is cost prohibitive for many people in need.
However, if dental implants are proven to be necessary for your general health, medical insurance can step in to provide coverage for the procedure- just like a hip replacement, kidney transplant, or other medically necessary surgery. In this scenario, a patient would only be responsible to cover their deductible and any other out-of-pocket expenses, bringing cost to as low as ~$2,000 or less for a $60,000+ full-mouth reconstruction procedure (illustrative example, every patient is different.)
If you need a new smile and are worried about paying out-of-pocket for treatment, we believe it is worth it to check if you're eligible for this coverage first. Our team here at Esteem Dental Implants - McKinney will help you explore this new way of funding one of the most life-changing treatments in existence. And, if you aren't a candidate for medical coverage, we still offer discounts for cash pay patients, and can even get you set up with a payment plan to make treatment affordable.

Feeling held back socially or professionally because of your smile?

Even More Transformations
Full mouth dental implants provide several advantages over conventional dentures, such as a more natural appearance, increased durability, enhanced comfort, and improved stability. These implants require less maintenance compared to dentures and can be cared for with regular oral hygiene routines. Additionally, they contribute to better jawbone preservation by replacing tooth roots, preventing jawbone recession and maintaining a natural, attractive smile.

Frequently Asked Questions
There are several reasons why you may need a dental implant, such as having lost a tooth due to an injury or periodontal disease, having a missing tooth that affects your ability to chew and speak, having a visible gap in your smile due to a missing tooth, or having an ill-fitting denture or bridge. If you are experiencing any of these issues, it may be worth considering a dental implant. However, it is important to consult with a dentist or oral surgeon to determine if a dental implant is the best option for you, as they will be able to evaluate your oral health and determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.
The process of getting a dental implant is multi-faceted and typically involves several steps, which can span over a few months. Initially, a comprehensive dental exam is conducted, including X-rays and possibly 3D imaging, followed by the formulation of a treatment plan. If necessary, tooth extraction or bone grafting is performed.The key phase is the surgical placement of the dental implant, a small titanium post, into the bone socket of the missing tooth. While the healing and integration of the implant with the jawbone (osseointegration) can take several weeks to months, it's important to note that in most cases, patients receive a temporary tooth or teeth on the day of surgery. This ensures that patients can enjoy the appearance of their new smile immediately, although they are advised to take it easy and follow certain dietary restrictions while the implant is healing.Once the implant has securely integrated with the jawbone, a small connector post called an abutment is attached to hold the new tooth. In the final step, a custom-made tooth (crown), often a strong zirconia prosthesis, especially in cases of full mouth dental implants, is attached to the abutment after the healing phase. This final prosthesis is designed for durability and aesthetic appeal, completing the patient's new smile.
Dental implant surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia, so the procedure itself is not painful, deeper sedation options even are available for patients with anxiety. Post-surgery, some discomfort is typical, such as swelling of the gums and face, minor bleeding, bruising of the skin and gums, and pain at the implant site. However, these symptoms are usually mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medications and following the dentist’s care instructions. Most patients report that the discomfort is less than they expected and is manageable.
