Sounds like you got a good deal.

Anyway, I kept hearing that a lot of people don't get implants because of the cost, but it seemed like my insurance company was going to pay for most of it. Well, I just got a bill for $959. The estimate I got from my oral surgeon was more on the $450 range that I would have to pay.
I am lucky that I can afford to pay that (and would have gotten the implant regardless, I researched and it was the best option in terms of life and health of the tooth and bone).
I am going to call my insurance company tomorrow to make sure it was billed correctly. I'll pay it and move on. But just thought I'd see what others paid for their implant. Thanks!
Who is your oral surgeon?
