Q. When I was 12 I had a front tooth ( # 8) removed due to an accident that occured when I was 7. At the time I was to young to get an implant. Since then I have worn a flapper or flipper (I am not sure what it is called.) Now I am 22 and I am thinking about getting an implant. Is it still possible for me to get an implant. If possible will I have to get a bone graft. what is the average US price for an implant?
A. I am not based in the US so have no real idea what is the average cost for a dental implant. Without a consultation it is hard to be didactic about your options, but you should be able to have a dental implant and may need to have grafting, situation dependent.
