I'm a financial coordinator at a dental clinic. I'm the person who shows the patients how much these procedures are going to cost on paper and how their insurance isn't going to cover anything other than the x-rays and maybe a portion of any remaining teeth that needs to be removed. It breaks my heart and kills me a little inside every time a patient is completely hopeless in their ability to afford these treatments. Nor if they are unable to qualify to finance them. I wish I had the money to help everyone who needs these procedures or at least give all them the chance to finace them at low affordable rates. I wish I could grant everyone like my patients to be able to chew their food of choice and smile with confidence.
This makes me cry. I’ve been to about 25 different dentists. My teeth became very messed up due to a genetic disease. I can hardly eat anything. I won’t leave the house or go to church. I’m a shut in at 50. I don’t have the money to fix it. I can’t eat, smile, live or even speak clearly on the phone. It makes me wish and think some very bad things about myself. I’m at a loss and my life is over as I once knew it from a genetic mutation. Hid bless this dentist who fixed this grandma.❤️ P
Only the rich, famous and blessed can ever get something like this. I have done my research and they are expensive. Happy for this lady but it's too bad that most people have to suffer and live without teeth or with dentures that don't fit. ☹️
What a beautiful story, wow. It is never too late to start living life the way YOU want to live it. I hear pessimism all the time when they hear you saying that you want to do something positive, “Why”? “Who cares”, “It doesn’t matter”, “Oh well, it is what it is”. This is a perfect example of how your life matters, and you should want to be healthy at any age of your life. I have Stage IV Metastatic Bone Cancer, and I have had massive chronic teeth issues. Sometimes I think that I got Cancer because of my teeth issues that I left untreated for so many years. I finally got some caps to fix a few of my front teeth, but I want a brand new smile before I leave this earth. I am in CT and I have already started looking around over here. I love watching beautiful and inspiring people such as her. So happy she is happy, and smiling, and eating sea food. 🙏. Remember everyone…..it’s never too late. Let’s all follow her example. Thank you for this video. It inspired me even more to go after my dream of having a beautiful smile. 💖
I'm only 48 but have extremely poor jaw bone. I have had all on four done in September but I noted over time that in spite of sticking to softer foods I started to feel loose at the top. Went in for a check and they said unfortunately the screws that connect the teeth arch to the bone, did not attach and had to be removed to avoid infection. I had second surgery two days ago. I feel pretty good but honestly my fear is that it will fail again. My surgeon was going to go with my zygomas but he got in there and with the consult of others in the room, they felt they found four areas (2 sinus 2 jaw) that should be capable to be successful. I won't know for at least 3 months. It's not a 'get your teeth' and eat an apple kind of thing. Not charged anything for the surgery or check ups that will follow. I know they are gifted and skilled and I'm grateful I could refinance my mortgage to afford this. I feel sick that so many cannot do so and live with the pain and shame I had for years. It should be covered! Anyhow wish me luck.
Good luck Heidi! Sounds like you have a great dental team. Do the best you can on soft diets and staying healthy. Thank you for watching and sharing! I would love to hear back how it goes for you.
@@implantsecrets Surgery went okay with a small complication. I had a tear in the sinus wall which made things I would drink or gargled (salt water) come out my nose. I then developed a sinus infection that felt like a constant migraine on my face. They flushed the sinus after repairing the tear. That was Tuesday. I'm on 2 antibiotics and am starting to feel better. I'll see how it goes, hoping they attach and stay in the bone.
Insurances need to change there mindset. If a person can't chew there food properly, they don't eat. It a person can't smile because of no teeth, failing teeth or dentures that don't fit, there self esteem takes a hit. Its *NOT* always the person fault they have failing teeth. It's *NOT* about a cosmetic feature. Cosmetic features should be considered if you want something "extra" done to the teeth. Getting to improve the quality of your life shouldn't fall under being cosmetic. Insurances should *really* take that into consideration as well as cost. Its sad when people can't afford dental work or teeth that don't work.
I totally understand your frustration! And you’re so right, your teeth and your mouth health is so important to your well-being. Not only being able to eat healthy foods, but your self-esteem also. It’s like a spiral, low self-esteem makes it so you aren’t able to get a high-paying job… So there again your teeth are not taken care of… I’m so sorry for the struggle. I agree with you, Insurances should cover the cost of what us dentists can do for our patients! People would be so much more healthier and happier.
I watch these videos all the time and I’m so envious about the life changing procedures these fortunate folks get to enjoy. I could never afford to have my teeth fixed. You live each day in shame, never smiling, never being able to feel satisfied with the food your forced to eat to stay alive. When my youngest daughter passed away I dreaded the funeral and the people I would have to talk too. The loss was so very painful and it was made 10 times worse having go through that day with my teeth the way they are. I always took care of my teeth but an accident in 2000 shattered and ruined my teeth. They broke one at a time and now I have only 5 teeth and those are not going to last much longer I’m afraid. I just cannot pay for the smile I dream of and I don’t think I will ever be able to. The pain of infections is unbearable sometimes and makes life not worth living. If I didn’t have to raise my passed daughters child I don’t think I could go on. But she needs me and I’ll deal with my situation in order to give her the life she deserves. Watching the joy I see on these peoples faces when they smile makes it easier to deal with and I wish them all well, I really do. God bless you for all you do for your lucky patients. ✌🏻❤️🇺🇸
Sometimes one can find free dental clinics in their area. You may not be able to get dentures or implants, but maybe you could at least get your infections treated. I'm so sorry you are going through this.
Oregano oil … uncle Harry’s dental products …blender to make healthy smoothies … meanwhile pray for healing and pray for Divine help and guidance for financial funding for this and/or other means of help
If a simple video can show you how caring a dentist is then you are open for surprises…I haven’t met a dentist that is not interested in you having the money before he starts any procedure…you should look for videos that tell the stories how their implants are failing…if you are going to pay $ 50,000 for a set of implants then the dentist should guarantee that the implants are going to be very close to perfect…or otherwise not get paid…
I’m only 31, suffered severe depression my whole life which led me to not take care of myself. I got myself better and for the first time ever I want to smile but I can’t. I’m now missing 9 teeth and I can’t smile at all and it’s making me not want to be here anymore! Iv been trying to save for so long but my children come first and I just simply can not afford it! I’m so jealous of all these stories, they are truly blessed
I agree! They don’t seem to understand that it is the health of your teeth that makes a big impact on the help of your whole body. Maybe someday they will get it!
What a nice story, this made me cry😥 so many of us wish we could have a smile like that. Ive never had good teeth but watching this women get new teeth made me so happy for her, I had a big smile on my face because she was so happy, God bless her heart😁👍🎉📣🌟💕💕

Even though i got my full mouth implants from( CLEAR CHOICE ) I still get emotional after watching this . I learned that anything is possible if a person wants it bad enough, I was toothless and homeless , now I’m a home owner and have a mouth full of beautiful teeth
OMG! This woman can talk without sounding like a mumble mouth. Every other person that I saw have this procedure done all sounds like they are mumbling or like the teeth are too bulky for their mouth. Looks great, but more importantly, sounds great too. I hope she enjoys them for many more years to come. God bless her and the good dentists who changed her life.
@@lisayoungwirth5618 I don't think so. Not compared to other's that I have heard. I still wouldn't get this procedure because it's still a big appliance in the mouth, which will probably always feel like false teeth or a retainer. I'd rather get the 3 on 6 procedure. Just implants and teeth. No appliance.
Thank you Victoria, I would love to be in Philippines. That’s not where we are at this time. Hang in there! One day I will be your turn. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!
What’s the cost involved and what’s the procedure called? I’m on the same boat with her with severe bone loss. I’m interested to know more the details. Thank you@@implantsecrets
Thank you Susie, A lot of people don't understand that your health has a lot to do with your teeth. I also wish that Insurance companies would understand this.
Thank you we love miss Gensie. She was in a little bit of pain the night of surgery but the next day she was doing so good. We use specific techniques to minimize pain and swelling.

I want one too, but I can't afford it. I dread next years school opening because I need to face people and students in particular. I am 67 years old, single and a poor teacher. I have dentures that don't fit and have the same problems of people with bad teeth. I hope I can smile like this lady one day and pray that Jesus and mother Mary will send "an angel dentist" to make me smile like this.

There is a lot more to it then the cost. I got quotes from $21,000 to $44,000 for the 4 on 4 on upper and lower., All my teeth were pulled last November and I have had to put up with temporary dentures for 5 months so far. In 2 weeks I may finally get the lowers in and then they will take the molds and finish the uppers. In the meantime I am suffering with ill fitting dentures and paying monthly for the procedure. The Dentist keeps telling me it will be worth it when its done. I just hope I live long enough to enjoy all the pain and hassle. Not sure how you could travel out of the country and get it done with all the visits involved.
I can't wait...that will transform so many lives. A few months ago I got an estimate for 5 x crowns & 2 x implants...caused from broken & cracked fillings over the years. So far dentist has redone the fillings to build up the teeth for the crowns. Estimate $NZ 25k! I lost confidence over the years because I used to have stunning teeth...so I'm paying as we go & getting a loan. If stem cell treatment were available now I'd choose that in a heartbeat.😆
still in my predicament. talk to you 1 yr or 2 ago, was told they'd let me know if you had a give away / contest for free implants. haven't heard anything, but wanted to check back and see what you are doing now.
I will never be able to get any can’t even afford to get my dentures relined but I’m happy for those who can it’s miserable living with my mouth the doctor drilled my teeth out and I’ve never been the same
@@leebass4833 I’m 4 days past my full mouth extractions with immediate dentures. Never dreamed of this much pain. But every day it gets a little better. I’m praying this hasn’t been a horrible mistake. Look into Aspen Dental they do have financial options. Let’s pray for each other😊
@@gloriasmith6661 girl it’s been a little over 4 years since I got my dentures not going to lie I still can’t eat with them they drilled my teeth out and destroyed my jaw bones I pray you have all the luck in the world with yours

Even if I had the money I was told I hadn’t enough bone : NHS wage can’t buy me teeth so I look horrid , would love to smile without my mouth closed ❤️
She is blessed I cried my eyes out when they told me i may not be able to get what i want which is implants due to radiation i got as a childhood cancer patient a lot of u are right it does mess with you emotionally n physically n u fill so bad n the insurances do not care they never do I had a friend go for dental work cuz she on medicaid told her she cannot get what she wanted which was so braces u cant see she still saving to get it and her teeth gets worse dont make no sense

You can go to Mexico and get implants for 1/10th of what you'll be ripped off here in the USA. What a shame, for a dentist in such a rich country as the USA to rip people off. Go figure.
because it is $$$$ I saw a girl on here she lived in England but flew to Turkey and all the dental she had was beautiful and the place was so beautiful and clean so was the office her teeth were beautiful and under 2000. they had a package deal where she stayed and to and from the dental office it was well worth it though here in America only the rich can put 10,00 30,000 and up in the mouth it will always be just a thought
I cried when I seen this because I can relate because of Lupus and tons of medication it destroyed my jaw bone for implants..I haven't smiled in so many years I can't count..being an Educator I just gave up.#brokentexan
I have been without teeth or dentures for over ten years..I finally got a insurance to cover at least dentures. She said i had no bone left and it would be a waste of time to even refer me to the guy that makes dentures...She said I was looking at 35 to 50 thousand. Im 72, on soc sec, medicare, and been in remission from lung cancer for 2 years. Can u imagine how i felt when i walked out of that office..I fought so hard to get rid of my cancer, just to sit in my house day after day. Wishing I hadnt fought so hard.
53 now and need this. Maybe if I live to be 88 I'll be able to afford it. So sad to see she passed a few years after and couldn't have enjoyed them earlier and longer.
Wow I'll bet! We have many people that get the All-on-4 Dental Implants to be done with their ongoing dental issues once and for all. If this is a random occurrence, maybe the procedure isn't for you, but if you've had teeth issues your whole life, you may want to look into it. Here is a video on different options: ua-cam.com/video/m9X26G1IrHg/v-deo.html
Thanks so much for your reply! i have another question..... there are doctors in Mauritius claiming that they can give you dental implants within a week and this is Swiss technology....... is it recommended? My dentist says I have to go in for bone grafting, which will take another 6-7 months before the implant can be done
I'm 35 & am devastated that I'll have to get dentures.. It's absolutely ruined my life.. I won't go out with my kids/husband.. I won't work anymore. My husband works so we can't afford implants. I only have 5,000$ saved. We could make payments but I don't even know if you can make payments for this..

You don't know how much I envy people who are treated right when it comes to all on 4 implants. Five years ago I embarked on all on 4 here in Australia. I had an under-bite and my lower jaw had grown forward of the upper jaw. This never posed a problem, I had beautiful speech and I enunciated my words. I used to sing publicly and had a great voice. No problems with anything associated with my teeth and mouth. However due to unforeseen circumstances (a violent partner) many of my teeth were damaged beyond repair. I wanted my original bite as my jaws couldn't handle anything else. But, I was used as a personal playground by the people who promised me to give me my life back. They insisted that they could give me teeth in a more natural class 1 bite. (it's not possible). For 6 months I suffered horrifically as they kept calling me back every week to put in different teeth each time. The final straw came when one of the implants which was put in wrong was ground down with a diamond tipped drill to make it useless. I suffered pain from the very beginning and now 24 hours a day 7 days a week, 365 days a year for 5 years. I have a law suit against them which is going no where. I have no teeth to eat with and what teeth are in my mouth are horribly broken. I'm constantly filling my mouth with cotton gauze to stop the razor sharp edges from slicing the inside of my mouth open. As well as the extra long abutments put in that are razor sharp and are sticking into my cheeks and lips. I have never known pain like this. I can't afford to get them fixed as these originally cost me $75,000. I've paid out almost $150,000 so far to try to fix the problems they caused and now I have very little to live on, I can't eat, I've only been able to eat or suck down soft foods for years. I can't remember what it's like to eat a proper meal and salad being one of my favourites is impossible unless it is ground into a paste. Our dentists here stick together and won't treat me as long as I have a law suit against one of them. I've been told it will cost me in excess of $70,000 to fix the problems and start again for a 12 month job, followed by years of speech therapy because I haven't been able to speak properly all this time. I wish I could come to America and see you.
Hi. I was just reading about your experience with implants and I am so sorry that happened to you. When we go to get a procedure done be it medical or dental, we trust the people who tell us what they are going to do and we trust them to do that. My 1st dentist put an extra screw in sideways and then turned around and put another one in the front of it and of course the things that the teeth suction to, that one shows and the teeth won’t let me eat much of anything. I went to a second dentist because I didn’t think the first one was charging me correctly and that’s when I saw what he did to me. The second dentist tried to get me going with teeth and I can wear them just fine, I just can’t eat after paying in excess of $14,000. I am so broke from that and I can’t afford to buy any new O_rings or whatever they are called. So I glue the teeth in or put some stuff that is similar to a soft liner and that is how I make myself okay in front of public. It makes me very sad and mad that ADA won’t do anything when these dentists screw us up. We are free Debit cards without a machine. They charge you so much and then lie about what they messed up and actually blamed me! Then even after I was shocked at the second dentist office visit, he refused to go talk to my lawyer about what he saw and if he thought it was done to Specifications if the ADA. I won’t go back to him either. I will eventually get the metal Rod things out and I will fill it with cement if I have to. I would love to be able to cook and eat with my family. I will never be able to do that again. I no longer trust dentists and I will never Gotland another one.
So happy for this patient!! What exactly was done ? I’m confused. I live in NY and was told that my bottom left no teeth years needs bone from hip because the ridge line has sunk. No thanks. I was told 6 implants bottom - one at molar right, one in middle right, and 3 in front. Oral surgeon said 7 bone grafts upon 7 teeth removal which must heal 3-4 months, then implants following … was zirconia used on this patient ? Will you note specifics please? Do you have an in-house lab to produce teeth the same day? I live two hours from NYC and unable to find anyone I trust except on UA-cam - doctor in Australia !!
Hi Jeanne, We’d love to meet you! You have a lot of great questions! We can answer all your questions at your consultation. Fill out this form here: dreamdentalimplants.com/schedule-a-free-consultation/ We will reach out to you. Since you are and New York area, we could start with a virtual consultation.
When you are 88 and spend at least $40,000 to $60,000 for teeth, you must have money to burn. A well made upper denture is never really a problem. It adheres to the roof of the mouth. A partial lower denture is ok not great (no suction). Cost is about $850 to $1100. Two implants and a full lower denture that clips into the crowns of the implant is wonderful but the cost is $11,000 to $15,000. Mini Implants (you need 4) plus the clip in full lower denture will cost $7500 to $9500. Some dentists will want a new upper denture made if clip in dentures are used to insure a good fit. Add in an extra $1200 to $1500. Dentists are way over-priced. Its has become an industry filled with greed and crooks.
We understand this procedure is not cheap, and it's not for everyone. This beautiful lady has a lot of life left in her, and she wants to enjoy her twilight years and be able to go out, smile and eat the foods she loves without worrying about a denture. If you'd like to hear more about why the cost varies so much, we recommend this video: ua-cam.com/video/Iy9lUywVhfw/v-deo.html
We wish you all the blessing you need. Make sure the doctor that helps you out has done a lot of implants And is Very experienced! If you have anymore questions don’t hesitate to give us a call. We wish you the best!
As costly as this procedure is I was surprised that her impressions were not taken digitally. They are actually at least as accurate if not more so than standard impressions with a tray. For people with a severe gag phobia having to withstand even 2 or 3 minutes of a tray impression is terrifying and a deal breaker to obtain needed dental care.
Nice story but I'm a bit confused. Did she have implants put in or did she get dentures. The closeup at the end looks like dentures. Did they extract ALL of her teeth? What type of sedation was used...oral, gas, just plain Novocaine, IV sleep sedation? How long did the procedure take? Like I said, nice story but a lot of details that would have been helpful were omitted.
Looks like she had a hybrid denture. That's a denture supported by 4 or 5 or more implants. It's also called a All-On-4. You can research it on Google. Sedation type depends on what the patient wants and what the doc thinks patient should have. To me it seems this woman had IV sleep sedation. Length of procedure depends on what is being done. To my knowledge, the patient first has a temporary denture fitted. Once the patient is completely healed from the surgery and whatever else may be needed (such as gone grafting) (takes 3 to 6 months) then the permanent new hybrid denture is inserted and attached. It is permanent, cannot be taken in and out. Only the dentist can take it out. In case you might be wondering how I know this, I am getting ready for the same exact thing as this women and hope that I do as well as she does. She is an amazing 88-year-old person!

I went in for a consultation (not this place but one local to me). They quoted me $48,000 for upper and lower. Needless to say, I'm still suffering with my bad teeth.
Hi.... am amazed at the quick procedure that 88 year old gets dental implants in spite of being told she doesn't have enough bone to hold the implants. I am 75 years and my dentist is telling me he needs to do a bone grafting to secure the implants..... what do I do???
Definitely get a second and even a third opinion before moving forward. Sometimes doctors haven’t kept up with the latest literature, techniques, materials, and technology.
I honestly have not heard of bone grafting ever before until now. Shouldn't it be a normal practice for a patient (especially when he or she suffers/suffered from gum disease before and already had bone loss) to have bone graft whenever the patient has a tooth extraction at the same time, so as to preserve current bone and gives stablility to the upper or lower jaws? I mean bone is available using cavader or bovine or even patient's own tooth, right?
I know someone how had all individual implants done in Costa Rica. Totally costs of the procedure $22K and another 10K for living expenses for the 6 months she was there. She still had money left when she got back to the states. Her procedure was done in a hospital under sedation, and her dentist went to school in the US.
All comments are correct. And there really isn't such a thing as dental insurance, anything helpful anyway. And arrogance is very prevalent in the dentist business. Hard to stay healthy if you can't eat properly.
I’ve had the immediate upper dentures for ab 5 weeks now. God makes it easier. For me, and I hope he does the same for everyone here. It’s not easy but we’re stronger.
I'm a financial coordinator at a dental clinic. I'm the person who shows the patients how much these procedures are going to cost on paper and how their insurance isn't going to cover anything other than the x-rays and maybe a portion of any remaining teeth that needs to be removed.
It breaks my heart and kills me a little inside every time a patient is completely hopeless in their ability to afford these treatments. Nor if they are unable to qualify to finance them. I wish I had the money to help everyone who needs these procedures or at least give all them the chance to finace them at low affordable rates. I wish I could grant everyone like my patients to be able to chew their food of choice and smile with confidence.
I hear you! I feel the same…

This makes me cry. I’ve been to about 25 different dentists. My teeth became very messed up due to a genetic disease. I can hardly eat anything. I won’t leave the house or go to church. I’m a shut in at 50. I don’t have the money to fix it. I can’t eat, smile, live or even speak clearly on the phone. It makes me wish and think some very bad things about myself. I’m at a loss and my life is over as I once knew it from a genetic mutation. Hid bless this dentist who fixed this grandma.❤️

What a beautiful story, wow. It is never too late to start living life the way YOU want to live it. I hear pessimism all the time when they hear you saying that you want to do something positive, “Why”? “Who cares”, “It doesn’t matter”, “Oh well, it is what it is”. This is a perfect example of how your life matters, and you should want to be healthy at any age of your life. I have Stage IV Metastatic Bone Cancer, and I have had massive chronic teeth issues. Sometimes I think that I got Cancer because of my teeth issues that I left untreated for so many years. I finally got some caps to fix a few of my front teeth, but I want a brand new smile before I leave this earth. I am in CT and I have already started looking around over here. I love watching beautiful and inspiring people such as her. So happy she is happy, and smiling, and eating sea food. 🙏. Remember everyone…..it’s never too late. Let’s all follow her example. Thank you for this video. It inspired me even more to go after my dream of having a beautiful smile. 💖

I'm only 48 but have extremely poor jaw bone. I have had all on four done in September but I noted over time that in spite of sticking to softer foods I started to feel loose at the top. Went in for a check and they said unfortunately the screws that connect the teeth arch to the bone, did not attach and had to be removed to avoid infection. I had second surgery two days ago. I feel pretty good but honestly my fear is that it will fail again. My surgeon was going to go with my zygomas but he got in there and with the consult of others in the room, they felt they found four areas (2 sinus 2 jaw) that should be capable to be successful. I won't know for at least 3 months. It's not a 'get your teeth' and eat an apple kind of thing. Not charged anything for the surgery or check ups that will follow. I know they are gifted and skilled and I'm grateful I could refinance my mortgage to afford this. I feel sick that so many cannot do so and live with the pain and shame I had for years. It should be covered! Anyhow wish me luck.
Good luck Heidi! Sounds like you have a great dental team. Do the best you can on soft diets and staying healthy. Thank you for watching and sharing! I would love to hear back how it goes for you.
@@implantsecrets Surgery went okay with a small complication. I had a tear in the sinus wall which made things I would drink or gargled (salt water) come out my nose. I then developed a sinus infection that felt like a constant migraine on my face. They flushed the sinus after repairing the tear. That was Tuesday. I'm on 2 antibiotics and am starting to feel better. I'll see how it goes, hoping they attach and stay in the bone.

She looks so much younger than 88. What a sweetheart she is and what a beautiful smile. Great work doctor!
She didn’t act like 88 years old either… She was the most beautiful spirited lady. One of our favorites for sure!
She’s a champion! Goals!
Insurances need to change there mindset. If a person can't chew there food properly, they don't eat. It a person can't smile because of no teeth, failing teeth or dentures that don't fit, there self esteem takes a hit. Its *NOT* always the person fault they have failing teeth. It's *NOT* about a cosmetic feature. Cosmetic features should be considered if you want something "extra" done to the teeth. Getting to improve the quality of your life shouldn't fall under being cosmetic. Insurances should *really* take that into consideration as well as cost. Its sad when people can't afford dental work or teeth that don't work.
I totally understand your frustration! And you’re so right, your teeth and your mouth health is so important to your well-being. Not only being able to eat healthy foods, but your self-esteem also. It’s like a spiral, low self-esteem makes it so you aren’t able to get a high-paying job… So there again your teeth are not taken care of… I’m so sorry for the struggle. I agree with you, Insurances should cover the cost of what us dentists can do for our patients! People would be so much more healthier and happier.
melissa ann The allopathic system of 'doctors'. Pushed out the eye doctors and dentists. It's criminal!!!
Medicare part B covers implants now !
They won't change b/c it will cost them money!
I'm furious that dental isn't covered under medical insurance!
Insurance company’s that a care about a persons well being,lol
I watch these videos all the time and I’m so envious about the life changing procedures these fortunate folks get to enjoy. I could never afford to have my teeth fixed. You live each day in shame, never smiling, never being able to feel satisfied with the food your forced to eat to stay alive. When my youngest daughter passed away I dreaded the funeral and the people I would have to talk too. The loss was so very painful and it was made 10 times worse having go through that day with my teeth the way they are. I always took care of my teeth but an accident in 2000 shattered and ruined my teeth. They broke one at a time and now I have only 5 teeth and those are not going to last much longer I’m afraid. I just cannot pay for the smile I dream of and I don’t think I will ever be able to. The pain of infections is unbearable sometimes and makes life not worth living. If I didn’t have to raise my passed daughters child I don’t think I could go on. But she needs me and I’ll deal with my situation in order to give her the life she deserves. Watching the joy I see on these peoples faces when they smile makes it easier to deal with and I wish them all well, I really do.
God bless you for all you do for your lucky patients.
✌🏻❤️🇺🇸
I’m praying for you, God bless you.
im in your boat. the pain....
Sometimes one can find free dental clinics in their area. You may not be able to get dentures or implants, but maybe you could at least get your infections treated. I'm so sorry you are going through this.
Oregano oil … uncle Harry’s dental products …blender to make healthy smoothies … meanwhile pray for healing and pray for Divine help and guidance for financial funding for this and/or other means of help
Thank you guys for caring. It’s really hard to find caring dentist.
If a simple video can show you how caring a dentist is then you are open for surprises…I haven’t met a dentist that is not interested in you having the money before he starts any procedure…you should look for videos that tell the stories how their implants are failing…if you are going to pay $ 50,000 for a set of implants then the dentist should guarantee that the implants are going to be very close to perfect…or otherwise not get paid…
Oh my goodness, your dentist has restored your beautiful smile. You look radiant.
Very talented dental restoration.
I’m only 31, suffered severe depression my whole life which led me to not take care of myself. I got myself better and for the first time ever I want to smile but I can’t. I’m now missing 9 teeth and I can’t smile at all and it’s making me not want to be here anymore! Iv been trying to save for so long but my children come first and I just simply can not afford it! I’m so jealous of all these stories, they are truly blessed
I agree insurances are stupid for not paying for this procedure it can affect someone’s life .
I agree! They don’t seem to understand that it is the health of your teeth that makes a big impact on the help of your whole body. Maybe someday they will get it!
Just had mine done in Turkey Alanya dental implants bone graft 24 crowns £6000
Very happy
Such a lovely lady. I also have a UA-cam page and I have to give her much more credit then anything. So warm hearted and very well explained
What a sweet and wonderful lady. I want to just hug her!!!
What a nice story, this made me cry😥 so many of us wish we could have a smile like that. Ive never had good teeth but watching this women get new teeth made me so happy for her, I had a big smile on my face because she was so happy, God bless her heart😁👍🎉📣🌟💕💕

Even though i got my full mouth implants from( CLEAR CHOICE ) I still get emotional after watching this . I learned that anything is possible if a person wants it bad enough, I was toothless and homeless , now I’m a home owner and have a mouth full of beautiful teeth
OMG! This woman can talk without sounding like a mumble mouth. Every other person that I saw have this procedure done all sounds like they are mumbling or like the teeth are too bulky for their mouth. Looks great, but more importantly, sounds great too. I hope she enjoys them for many more years to come. God bless her and the good dentists who changed her life.
She had some Mumble mouth too
@@lisayoungwirth5618 I don't think so. Not compared to other's that I have heard. I still wouldn't get this procedure because it's still a big appliance in the mouth, which will probably always feel like false teeth or a retainer. I'd rather get the 3 on 6 procedure. Just implants and teeth. No appliance.
She has a very beautiful smile and the teeth are just plain LOVELY in her smile and hopefully constructive as well and can eat.
Never too late! This really blesses me to see this! Thank you God for the staff and the people that work here. ❤️

I have dentures that don't fit and have the same problems of people with bad teeth. I hope I can smile like this lady one day and pray that Jesus and mother Mary will send "an angel dentist" to make me smile like this.

I think dental insurance coverage needs to be changed. They need to cover more than $1500-$2000 a year. It should be like $10k to 20 ?!!
I agree!

There is a lot more to it then the cost. I got quotes from $21,000 to $44,000 for the 4 on 4 on upper and lower., All my teeth were pulled last November and I have had to put up with temporary dentures for 5 months so far. In 2 weeks I may finally get the lowers in and then they will take the molds and finish the uppers. In the meantime I am suffering with ill fitting dentures and paying monthly for the procedure. The Dentist keeps telling me it will be worth it when its done. I just hope I live long enough to enjoy all the pain and hassle. Not sure how you could travel out of the country and get it done with all the visits involved.
Wonderful story
Great dental work.
So nice !!!!! Well done !!!!
Aaw lovely darling you look happy❤
Thanks for watching my friend and commenting.
Thing to notice is this lady has most of her teeth and has great bone support to support implants at 88. This means she has great over all health
I wish this doctor was in glasgow Scotland he is amazing
Do you think in 20-30yrs we'll have stim cell implants that just grow our teeth back?
I can't wait...that will transform so many lives.
A few months ago I got an estimate for 5 x crowns & 2 x implants...caused from broken & cracked fillings over the years. So far dentist has redone the fillings to build up the teeth for the crowns.
Estimate $NZ 25k!
I lost confidence over the years because I used to have stunning teeth...so I'm paying as we go & getting a loan.
If stem cell treatment were available now I'd choose that in a heartbeat.😆
Yes.
still in my predicament. talk to you 1 yr or 2 ago, was told they'd let me know if you had a give away / contest for free implants. haven't heard anything, but wanted to check back and see what you are doing now.
We are dong good. We aren't at a point of giveaways yet. Hope to soon. Thanks for keep an eye on us. Would love to meet you one day.
I couldn't afford this if it was cheap so i know i can't ever get it. I do say God bless those that can get.
I will never be able to get any can’t even afford to get my dentures relined but I’m happy for those who can it’s miserable living with my mouth the doctor drilled my teeth out and I’ve never been the same

She is blessed I cried my eyes out when they told me i may not be able to get what i want which is implants due to radiation i got as a childhood cancer patient a lot of u are right it does mess with you emotionally n physically n u fill so bad n the insurances do not care they never do I had a friend go for dental work cuz she on medicaid told her she cannot get what she wanted which was so braces u cant see she still saving to get it and her teeth gets worse dont make no sense
I noticed one very important thing was not even mentioned, the total price. $$,$$$.$$.
Each patient is individualized. There are many factors that go into pricing. Only Dr. Hendriks is the only one giving pricing in the consultation. If you would like to come in for a consultation and get your CT scan. Dr. Hendriks will be able to give you several options. I don’t mind 801-990-1703
Maybe would be different for each person. Would be nice as a reference point to know how much this case was.
You can go to Mexico and get implants for 1/10th of what you'll be ripped off here in the USA. What a shame, for a dentist in such a rich country as the USA to rip people off. Go figure.
because it is $$$$ I saw a girl on here she lived in England but flew to Turkey and all the dental she had was beautiful and the place was so beautiful and clean so was the office her teeth were beautiful and under 2000. they had a package deal where she stayed and to and from the dental office it was well worth it though here in America only the rich can put 10,00 30,000 and up in the mouth it will always be just a thought
prettyeyes1752 could you please give me more information about the Dentist in Turkey I’m thinking of going thanks
I cried when I seen this because I can relate because of Lupus and tons of medication it destroyed my jaw bone for implants..I haven't smiled in so many years I can't count..being an Educator I just gave up.#brokentexan
😔🙏💙
I have been without teeth or dentures for over ten years..I finally got a insurance to cover at least dentures. She said i had no bone left and it would be a waste of time to even refer me to the guy that makes dentures...She said I was looking at 35 to 50 thousand. Im 72, on soc sec, medicare, and been in remission from lung cancer for 2 years. Can u imagine how i felt when i walked out of that office..I fought so hard to get rid of my cancer, just to sit in my house day after day. Wishing I hadnt fought so hard.
53 now and need this. Maybe if I live to be 88 I'll be able to afford it. So sad to see she passed a few years after and couldn't have enjoyed them earlier and longer.
Was wondering about that. Thank you.
Do you have experience with people who had cancer in their mouth which required the removal of the upper left jaw and palette?
Yes I have a patient under similar circumstances.
I broke my front tooth in April still not finished till next April. Cost $8,500 now another one is bad . The cost is causing me great anxiety.
Wow I'll bet! We have many people that get the All-on-4 Dental Implants to be done with their ongoing dental issues once and for all. If this is a random occurrence, maybe the procedure isn't for you, but if you've had teeth issues your whole life, you may want to look into it. Here is a video on different options: ua-cam.com/video/m9X26G1IrHg/v-deo.html
She Looks So Sweet .Just One Question What Type Of implants Did She Get? ??
Very good job, please how long will it last before a replacement?

May I know how much the cost for both upper/lower? Thanks
Thanks so much for your reply! i have another question..... there are doctors in Mauritius claiming that they can give you dental implants within a week and this is Swiss technology....... is it recommended? My dentist says I have to go in for bone grafting, which will take another 6-7 months before the implant can be done
I'm 35 & am devastated that I'll have to get dentures.. It's absolutely ruined my life.. I won't go out with my kids/husband.. I won't work anymore. My husband works so we can't afford implants. I only have 5,000$ saved. We could make payments but I don't even know if you can make payments for this..

You don't know how much I envy people who are treated right when it comes to all on 4 implants. Five years ago I embarked on all on 4 here in Australia. I had an under-bite and my lower jaw had grown forward of the upper jaw. This never posed a problem, I had beautiful speech and I enunciated my words. I used to sing publicly and had a great voice. No problems with anything associated with my teeth and mouth. However due to unforeseen circumstances (a violent partner) many of my teeth were damaged beyond repair. I wanted my original bite as my jaws couldn't handle anything else. But, I was used as a personal playground by the people who promised me to give me my life back. They insisted that they could give me teeth in a more natural class 1 bite. (it's not possible). For 6 months I suffered horrifically as they kept calling me back every week to put in different teeth each time. The final straw came when one of the implants which was put in wrong was ground down with a diamond tipped drill to make it useless. I suffered pain from the very beginning and now 24 hours a day 7 days a week, 365 days a year for 5 years. I have a law suit against them which is going no where. I have no teeth to eat with and what teeth are in my mouth are horribly broken. I'm constantly filling my mouth with cotton gauze to stop the razor sharp edges from slicing the inside of my mouth open. As well as the extra long abutments put in that are razor sharp and are sticking into my cheeks and lips. I have never known pain like this. I can't afford to get them fixed as these originally cost me $75,000. I've paid out almost $150,000 so far to try to fix the problems they caused and now I have very little to live on, I can't eat, I've only been able to eat or suck down soft foods for years. I can't remember what it's like to eat a proper meal and salad being one of my favourites is impossible unless it is ground into a paste. Our dentists here stick together and won't treat me as long as I have a law suit against one of them. I've been told it will cost me in excess of $70,000 to fix the problems and start again for a 12 month job, followed by years of speech therapy because I haven't been able to speak properly all this time. I wish I could come to America and see you.
Hi. I was just reading about your experience with implants and I am so sorry that happened to you. When we go to get a procedure done be it medical or dental, we trust the people who tell us what they are going to do and we trust them to do that. My 1st dentist put an extra screw in sideways and then turned around and put another one in the front of it and of course the things that the teeth suction to, that one shows and the teeth won’t let me eat much of anything. I went to a second dentist because I didn’t think the first one was charging me correctly and that’s when I saw what he did to me. The second dentist tried to get me going with teeth and I can wear them just fine, I just can’t eat after paying in excess of $14,000. I am so broke from that and I can’t afford to buy any new O_rings or whatever they are called. So I glue the teeth in or put some stuff that is similar to a soft liner and that is how I make myself okay in front of public. It makes me very sad and mad that ADA won’t do anything when these dentists screw us up. We are free Debit cards without a machine. They charge you so much and then lie about what they messed up and actually blamed me!
Then even after I was shocked at the second dentist office visit, he refused to go talk to my lawyer about what he saw and if he thought it was done to Specifications if the ADA. I won’t go back to him either. I will eventually get the metal Rod things out and I will fill it with cement if I have to. I would love to be able to cook and eat with my family. I will never be able to do that again. I no longer trust dentists and I will never Gotland another one.
Everything is about money . Big money business.
Good that we could bone up on these challenging dental cases. Cheers!
So happy for this patient!! What exactly was done ? I’m confused. I live in NY and was told that my bottom left no teeth years needs bone from hip because the ridge line has sunk. No thanks. I was told 6 implants bottom - one at molar right, one in middle right, and 3 in front. Oral surgeon said 7 bone grafts upon 7 teeth removal which must heal 3-4 months, then implants following … was zirconia used on this patient ? Will you note specifics please? Do you have an in-house lab to produce teeth the same day? I live two hours from NYC and unable to find anyone I trust except on UA-cam - doctor in Australia !!
Hi Jeanne,
We’d love to meet you! You have a lot of great questions! We can answer all your questions at your consultation. Fill out this form here: dreamdentalimplants.com/schedule-a-free-consultation/ We will reach out to you. Since you are and New York area, we could start with a virtual consultation.
@@implantsecrets thank you for responding! I will complete the form and send it in.
When you are 88 and spend at least $40,000 to $60,000 for teeth, you must have money to burn. A well made upper denture is never really a problem. It adheres to the roof of the mouth. A partial lower denture is ok not great (no suction). Cost is about $850 to $1100. Two implants and a full lower denture that clips into the crowns of the implant is wonderful but the cost is $11,000 to $15,000. Mini Implants (you need 4) plus the clip in full lower denture will cost $7500 to $9500. Some dentists will want a new upper denture made if clip in dentures are used to insure a good fit. Add in an extra $1200 to $1500. Dentists are way over-priced. Its has become an industry filled with greed and crooks.
We understand this procedure is not cheap, and it's not for everyone. This beautiful lady has a lot of life left in her, and she wants to enjoy her twilight years and be able to go out, smile and eat the foods she loves without worrying about a denture. If you'd like to hear more about why the cost varies so much, we recommend this video: ua-cam.com/video/Iy9lUywVhfw/v-deo.html
She is so beautiful and at 88 years old her youth has done her well.
Oh ffs 🙄
Raechel Barentson-Frantom, your are right, you have to be rich. I'am saving my money to have work done in Thailand next year.

Gorgeous teeth x
As costly as this procedure is I was surprised that her impressions were not taken digitally. They are actually at least as accurate if not more so than standard impressions with a tray. For people with a severe gag phobia having to withstand even 2 or 3 minutes of a tray impression is terrifying and a deal breaker to obtain needed dental care.
We have digital now!
I heard about basel implants needing no grafting. Im in severe pain in mouth cant even talk. Can you help?
Nice story but I'm a bit confused. Did she have implants put in or did she get dentures. The closeup at the end looks like dentures. Did they extract ALL of her teeth? What type of sedation was used...oral, gas, just plain Novocaine, IV sleep sedation? How long did the procedure take? Like I said, nice story but a lot of details that would have been helpful were omitted.
Looks like she had a hybrid denture. That's a denture supported by 4 or 5 or more implants. It's also called a All-On-4. You can research it on Google. Sedation type depends on what the patient wants and what the doc thinks patient should have. To me it seems this woman had IV sleep sedation. Length of procedure depends on what is being done. To my knowledge, the patient first has a temporary denture fitted. Once the patient is completely healed from the surgery and whatever else may be needed (such as gone grafting) (takes 3 to 6 months) then the permanent new hybrid denture is inserted and attached. It is permanent, cannot be taken in and out. Only the dentist can take it out. In case you might be wondering how I know this, I am getting ready for the same exact thing as this women and hope that I do as well as she does. She is an amazing 88-year-old person!
Wish they would say how long it took and are they dentures and how much the cost .

Ya while I'm a 22 year old male with Aspbergers and OCD and Can't even afford to get one 😓
Kyle I’m 67 and my one is costing me $8,500
I went in for a consultation (not this place but one local to me). They quoted me $48,000 for upper and lower. Needless to say, I'm still suffering with my bad teeth.
That is insane
So expensive but thanks God 🙏🙏🙏 answer prayer
Hi.... am amazed at the quick procedure that 88 year old gets dental implants in spite of being told she doesn't have enough bone to hold the implants. I am 75 years and my dentist is telling me he needs to do a bone grafting to secure the implants..... what do I do???
Definitely get a second and even a third opinion before moving forward. Sometimes doctors haven’t kept up with the latest literature, techniques, materials, and technology.
Ask for a copy of the imaging (or even request that an assistant take pics of panoramic X-ray or video of ct of the latest imaging)
@@implantsecrets How should we request a copy of our imaging/pano and or records? Do dentists prefer any specific way?
I honestly have not heard of bone grafting ever before until now. Shouldn't it be a normal practice for a patient (especially when he or she suffers/suffered from gum disease before and already had bone loss) to have bone graft whenever the patient has a tooth extraction at the same time, so as to preserve current bone and gives stablility to the upper or lower jaws? I mean bone is available using cavader or bovine or even patient's own tooth, right?
You're 1,000% RIGHT!
Bone grafts should be standard procedure for those who really need it.
They never talk about the price but you’re probably looking at about $50,000 it’s sad that people have to go to Mexico to have your teeth fixed
I know someone how had all individual implants done in Costa Rica. Totally costs of the procedure $22K and another 10K for living expenses for the 6 months she was there. She still had money left when she got back to the states. Her procedure was done in a hospital under sedation, and her dentist went to school in the US.
Mine were $66500
What a sweetheart, I hope she is getting a Colgate smile?
Hey doc what happened to the arm ?
Ha! Funny Story... Lets just say my mothers worst nightmare came true... (motorcycle) Could have been worst...
All comments are correct. And there really isn't such a thing as dental insurance, anything helpful anyway. And arrogance is very prevalent in the dentist business. Hard to stay healthy if you can't eat properly.
I’ve had the immediate upper dentures for ab 5 weeks now. God makes it easier. For me, and I hope he does the same for everyone here. It’s not easy but we’re stronger.
Thanks Ramon, I appreciate you watching and commenting!
I cant get over the surprise that this lady is 88! she doesnt look that age at all.
We agree!
