Google Vietnam and Thailand dental. Many Americans and Europeans are going there for high quality dental works. Cost is very much cheaper and you can plan a nice holiday. My friend did a full mouth crowns using zirconia. Cost was less than 8000. If you add the flight and hotel, you do the numbers. This was for 28 teeth. All done within 12 days. Outstanding work and he is now having a million dollar smile.
I have a snapin denture. Money was the main reason i settled on this. I was able to get my teeth pulled, bone graph, 4 implants, and temporary and final denture for $9400. My issue is, having worn the denture for 6 months I realized the Pallet really bothers me and my dss prefers to leave the pallet for more suport. I shared this with my dss and he suggested I go with a zirconium arch prostitic instead. His office doesn't do them but he assured me the implants would carry it. I've been trying to find out how much it would cost for just getting the zirconium full arch made and installed but no one want to even give me a ball park price.
This is a GREAT presentation! After years of extractions, root canals, crowns, pain, and implants, my general dentist just recommended that instead of re-doing my old work, that I consider an all-on-4 option. Your videos have really helped take away the uncertainty of this decision and helped me see it may be best to travel from South Texas to North Texas to have this done.
Your videos are always so very helpful and insightful. Always with the great info that is broken down and explained to make choices so much easier. With each video it guarantees me that I definitely want you guys to be the ones who will make me smile again someday hopefully soon. I truly can't wait for that day to come. You are not just a periodontist or dentist, you also maybe without knowing are a hero in the since that you save so many lives, a psychiatrist that helps cure depression in so many. Like I've said to you before, I lost all hope whatsoever...but yall have been restoring it back slowly. The only obstacle in my way is of course the costs. And well I'm trying my best to jump over that obstacle some way or another. Again Doc thank you to you and too your staff and colleagues! 🤘🏽💙
Definitely affordable dentists in Mexico .. thank god they are available because prices in US are outrageous! Unless you remortgage your house it’s not affordable! Sad…
Yes, that was very helpful. I definitely feel more confident about wanting all on 4’s. No matter how much I brush my teeth and floss they are still just rotting away. The fillings in cavities break off. I’ve been to the dentist so many times that I’m getting phantom pains from where they stick the needle to numb my mouth. I just want the top gone and new teeth that I don’t have to take out everyday. This was very helpful. Thank u!
@@ATTLASXD I’ve been to dentists and have never been told I have gum disease or any periodontal problem. If I had these wouldn’t at least one of the dentists have mentioned it?
@@ATTLASXD hmmm, I will have it checked out. I’m so disappointed that a dentist never even mentioned any kind of gum issue to me. I wonder how a dentist could suspect it but never say anything. However, I appreciate ur reply and will look in to it. Thank u.
Hi Dr Choi, I have been watching your videos for 3 days now and I have been learning a lot about Dental implants. Thank you for educating the people. I have plans of doing dental implants all on 4 zirconia but I was wondering how much this cost ? Can you give me an idea or range ?
First and foremost, THANK YOU for all your videos, time and experience. You're the very best for those of us who struggle with bad teeth and knowing what to do or expect. Second, I couldn't afford to get all on 4 in the U.S. , so the thought of getting it done in Mexico was my best option ( at least financially). I went and got the implants placed, and was wondering if you were interested on my experience, to maybe give you some type of content from. And if so, would you take a look at the x-ray of my implants, and tell me what you think?
Hi Dr. Choi, last month I had a tooth extraction on my right upper molar due to an abscesses failed root canal (I did not have a bone graft right after).Next to it is another root canal tooth which I think was affected during the extraction process because of all the maneuvering. Eventually the crown of the other tooth became loose and fell off (a month after) and it has very little structure left. Since that was the case I was opting to go with extracting it and plan to do dental implants instead of retreating it. Since my initial tooth extraction did not have a bone graft, the dentist advised me to do it after 4 months of healing. Now im in the situation of wanting to do the dental bone graft right after the 2nd tooth extraction. However, the dentist said it will be pointless to do it because I’ll be doing the bone graft of the other missing tooth so he said it should just be done at the same time. In the meantime he is advising to wait for healing after the extractions then do bone graft for both at the same time. But my feeling is I still want to do a bone graft right after the 2nd tooth extraction for socket preservation/more bone structure for the future dental implant. Needing your advise. Thank you.
Dr Choi, I had many tooth extractions. Much relief!!! Now, during co vid, I sat back and investigated solutions. My 7 front bottom teeth are perfect. I refuse to pull them, for an “ easier” Dental solution. I need,or want,a DENTAL IMPLANT BRIDGE on UPPER FRONT. Are ZIRCONIA possible? IF,below are my perfect,natural teeth ?
Question, what if a person has already lost all of their teeth and it has been about 20 years since they had their dentures looked at, also the bottom denture never fit right? Would the gums and bone have shrunk to the most they would? Theoretically which treatment would you suggest?
Nothing against you, your awesome. Thank you doctor for your work in bringing usable information to us. But all i hear when dentist talking, is when i was a kid, the dentist yelling at me because he kept jabbing the needle in my nerves and i can say, theres nothing quite like it. Outside of the ridiculous way the body jerks all on its own, seeing stars, (pretty sure theres a momentary blackout/loss of consciousness, but the ridiculous level of pain. Ive been shot, stabbed, blown up, shrapnel still rubbing up on nerves, damaged spine that gave incomplete paralysis (9 vertebrae compaction) knees, elbows, you name it...getting tiny shrapnel hitting, stuck in your eyeballs sucks monkeyballs too. That hurts, alot. None of came close to how getting a nerve in your mouth jabbed by a needle, hits your reset button. Its like the worst pain ever mixed with getting hit by lightning in your eyeballs. Getting it dug out isnt fun either. But when its removed, the sudden instant loss of pain. Awesomeness. Lol. 3 separate occasions as a child too i got the needle in the nerve garbage. Then one time as an adult. I was nope. Im done. Id rather have my big toe-nails removed without getting numbed. (Which ive had none on me by Army docs with a eedle nose and wire cutters. I kid yall not. Ok, now that im remembering it, that was actually bad. Wanted to scream but couldnt. I remember my body lifting off the table, but keeping my foot stable. Then collapsing back down when they were done. Then they said, ok, now the other foot. Fortunately, they were cool because i know i said some pretty nasty expletives while they rammed those needle noses up the nail all the way to the cuticle. They were sweating as much as i was from it. Then they shoved the wire cutters to clip the nail there. The most fun part is when they then went back with the needle nose and peeled the toe nail off. And befire i could catch my breath, they jabbed the needle nose on the other side of the toe. Then 2 more times on the other toe. And yet, that needle in your mouth hitting that nerve and your body suddenly goes into exorcist level flailing and levitating. Lol. Just remembering it caused me to have a mild panic attack. Im a grown man. But the thought of going to a dentist office. Id rather catch rabies. Why did i find writing all this so funny?
I just want my mouth to be healthy and eat normal food. What do you recommend if you are about to lose most of your teeth if you have advance periodontal disease?
I recently began watching, I love listening to your educational style and the transparency you share regarding implants, etc.. the pros and cons of your daily profession help all patients near and far, especially patients facing these issues, and I thank you! As a new subscriber from NC, I also try to be transparent when commenting on any channels I subscribe to. I must let you know as I'm beginning to watch many of your past posts that the music you are playing over your conversations with us and as you are educating all of us is extremely irritating. Its very nice to hear soft music in the background as a patient in the dental chair at your office, but in this format, sitting on my couch trying to educate myself and understand this foreign medical subject and procedure, I find it very distracting, frustrating, and unnecessary. Isn't it possible to turn off the music ? Especially when you are filming here on utube. Great job otherwise...I Thank you for sharing so much information with all of us. Blessings from a Nana of 3 in NC
Dr. There are so many dentists who make so many claims and it’s confusing. Do I pick a dentists who mainly does dentures or veneers? Would a “neighborhood dentist” who mainly fills cavities be ok to do implants or veneers? According to them, they can do it. So, see the confusion. Plus, if I go to several dentists to talk about dentures, implants etc.., this will cost me for each dentist I go to. Should dentists offer free consulting when it pertains to implants? Help please.
I have no idea what’s happening. I feel like my teeth and gums shrunk overall. I have been unwell and on medications. Any idea what is really happening. When I take pic my wisdom tooth is half of the length. Not looking for aesthetic but functional issue now 😢. Your answer will be much appreciated.
@@northtexasdentalsurgery I found one of the vids in which you talk about mini implants basically being temporary and not adaptable to the specific needs of the patient's teeth. Thank you. When I first saw the minis I thought "wow, they seem like a great solution" but in retrospect after watching your vid, they don't make much sense. If they were a viable solution, implants would have started out that way.
@@northtexasdentalsurgery I wish you were in NY. As you mention in the vid, a good dentist you can trust is very difficult to find. If you can't answer the following question, I totally understand. I have a lower premolar which had a pretty bad cavity on the lower front area which was treated with a filling in 2017. In 2019, it became infected, and given the choice between root canal and an implant, I went with the root canal, mostly because I have an aversion to putting metal in my body and I think I might be allergic to nickel. Also, I asked the dentist if it would be okay not to put a crown on it. He was hesitant but willing to follow my wishes saying that particular tooth usually doesn't get much pressure put on it. In December 2022, the filling in that tooth from 2017 fell out. I realized this around two weeks after it fell out when I experienced similar symptoms from the infection. The symptoms subsided on January 7. But I saw a dentist on January 9 and another on January 31. I was hoping one of them would use a CBCT to see if there was another infection, one that a panoramic or other 2D x-ray might not pick up. One didn't have the machine, and the other said my insurance wouldn't cover it. He also said it wasn't necessary. Both couldn't detect any infection anywhere in my mouth. Both recommended a crown if not an implant, but both were willing to put just another filling. As I write this, the symptoms seem to be returning. Maybe the scaling nudged something the wrong way, and triggered another leak of some sort. My lower left wisdom tooth has an old metal filling and has a hairline fracture I'm also told. Maybe it's one or the other tooth, or both. All this to ask, would extracting both teeth, and not replacing the premolar with anything put me at great risk of bone loss or shifting teeth? I know you'd have to see my specific case, but just in general? I'm thinking a retainer at night, along with a guard against grinding, could help prevent shifting of the teeth. But I'm told I have bone loss here and there already, especially in the upper jaw. Sorry for the long winded background. Again, I would totally understand if you didn't even read it. Just taking a desperate shot in the dark. I don't really care about aesthetics. I just want to keep the rest of my teeth healthy. Thank you for your vids.
I do not understand why you don't do a vlog about traditional dentures. Your business offers that option and for some of us it is a better option. You never address this process in your clinic and I feel it's important to offer other options! Not everyone has the money for implants and why make them feel "less than" when dentures are such a great option. Also, some people just don't like the thought of having metal permanently in their body. Please do an upadate.
I have a question. I developed a socket abscess and it was treated by.. An extensive mesial buccal releasing incision.. My question is.. Is that type of incision normal for the treatment of a socket abscess.. Because I now have a left long buccal nerve injury that is electrical 247..
I have been just about everywhere..No meds work..I have heard bad news on further surgery Idk.. Its a mess. I wish I knew if that specific type of incition is normal for a socket abscess because all I have is one other oral surgeon saying that he doesn't understand why they did what they did but yet won't tell me further answers...
Google low income dental care the state and town you live in. That’s what I did the charge was based on income. These places don’t give you dentures. In few years I will get dentures. Your teeth can’t be saved. They need to be pulled. My infection spread to bone in my jaw. It damaged the bone and pieces of it. Were removed along with the teeth.
Hello, Thanks for your videos. I had extraction and bone grafting yesterday. They put a flipper in temporarily. My doctor didn't tell the most important thing before letting me go. DO NOT RINSE YOUR TEETH. This is my first implant so I had no idea. I was bleeding so I took the flipper out when I got home and rinsed the crap out of it. I noticed that a piece of plastic/gel type thing came out. Is it bad and should I go back and tell my dentist? Never rinsed it after that and wearing the flipper piece. Still baffled how come the doctor never warned about this important thing.
All dentists are pushing implants now. What scares me is that dentists will lose the artistry of doing excellent dental work, like a bridge. I have a cracked tooth right now and all dentists have said extraction and implant. I've been to 5 dentists for an opinion. smh
I had traditional bridge for two missing teeth. It caused me no problems was easy to clean. Hopefully you can find someone to do it for you. I had it for 14 years.
I just had all of my teeth pulled in February. I don’t have any teeth either. I ate hamburger and French fries on Tuesday for lunch. Small bites and eat slowly.
Honestly, Dr. you are missing an opportunity to give important information. You sound like rambling… Seriously… a Lamborghini as an example for patients who need All on Four or dentures? Where is the compassion and sincerity?
The cost for all on 4 here in the US is outrageous. Zirconia all on 4 for a standard patient should be around 35-40k.
Google Vietnam and Thailand dental. Many Americans and Europeans are going there for high quality dental works. Cost is very much cheaper and you can plan a nice holiday. My friend did a full mouth crowns using zirconia. Cost was less than 8000. If you add the flight and hotel, you do the numbers. This was for 28 teeth. All done within 12 days.

What is the best if you gums residing or lack of bone in jaw? Most teeth gone or decaying. Also can't afford it, is there any other options?

you can get rid of it with an All on 4. not with a snap on denture unless you did a lot of bone reduction and angled your implants signicantly

Thanks for your videos. I had extraction and bone grafting yesterday. They put a flipper in temporarily. My doctor didn't tell the most important thing before letting me go. DO NOT RINSE YOUR TEETH. This is my first implant so I had no idea. I was bleeding so I took the flipper out when I got home and rinsed the crap out of it. I noticed that a piece of plastic/gel type thing came out. Is it bad and should I go back and tell my dentist? Never rinsed it after that and wearing the flipper piece. Still baffled how come the doctor never warned about this important thing.
probably should go ask your dentist
why isn't porcelain offered as an option?
In future videos, please leave out the music. It is distracting noise to what is otherwise a good, informative video. Thank you.
All dentists are pushing implants now. What scares me is that dentists will lose the artistry of doing excellent dental work, like a bridge. I have a cracked tooth right now and all dentists have said extraction and implant. I've been to 5 dentists for an opinion. smh
I had traditional bridge for two missing teeth. It caused me no problems was easy to clean. Hopefully you can find someone to do it for you. I had it for 14 years.
@@angelaschaefer5883 , I got a dental implant back in August. No problems so far.
You deleted my comment. Didn't like anyone questioning you about your prices, did you.
I never deleted your comment. what was your question exactly and I'll answer you right here.
i don't want braces and want excellent function
My long time friend lost all his teeth and he doesn't care. He still eats hamburgers.
I just had all of my teeth pulled in February. I don’t have any teeth either. I ate hamburger and French fries on Tuesday for lunch. Small bites and eat slowly.
Do away with the background music. Makes it harder to hear and understand you.
Honestly, Dr. you are missing an opportunity to give important information. You sound like rambling…
Seriously… a Lamborghini as an example for patients who need All on Four or dentures?
Where is the compassion and sincerity?
Turn off the music and speak to the public like a professional.
