There are several dentists in my area that do dental implants. One of them is way more affordable than the others. I mean seriously more affordable. I was about to take the plunge, but decided I should get an opinon from a dentist out of my area first.

Lisa,
When you talk about affordable dentistry, there is a difference between affordable and cheap. Some dentists find legitimate ways to make their dental implants more affordable. Maybe they cut their profit. Maybe they use mini implants or have exceptionally affordable payment plans.
Unfortunately some dentists try a different route for “affordability”. They don’t want to cut their profit margin, so they cheat on quality. They’ll use materials that are of a lower quality. While it may save you money on the short term, it may also end up costing you a fortune. Dental implant failure is real. Some result in serious infections or bone loss.
Check their implant qualifications before you move forward.
