I think there have been several threads on this searching back, but trying to see if there are ways to reduce cost. I had a tooth extraction on #2 b/c there was an infection underneath it and they couldn't save the root canal. So now I have a gap there. The prognosis is that i need:
1) sinus lift
2) bone graft
3) implant
4) crown
So speaking to the dentist most of the sinus lift and bone graft will not be covered. I've already been quoted $3250 just for the lift.
Anyways, It *seems* my only option is to shop around and get the best price and bite the bullet? Or are there options to argue with the insurance that this is mandatory? Which seems like a fruitless venture. Thanks!
