Hello group, does anyone know more or less about the cost of dental
implants in New jersey or PA? I have a choice of either a bridge
(about 2800 from which I pay half) or an implant (3000 from which I
have to pay the whole amount)

Im not sure if this rates are typical of New Jersey, if anyone can
help ill really appreciate it.....

    Fees can vary widely not only from state to state, but from office to
office.  Those are pretty normal fees.
    Check your insurance--some are starting to pay benefits on crowns and
even abutments on implant-retained prostheses.

And yet the basic dental benefit has hardly changed in 20 years.

Well, it seems to have to me.  The silent cuts are those in the yearly
max, not the service fees per se.  It means patients max out more easily.

Two crowns instead of five!
One endo and one crown instead of fixing up an entire mouth.
etc.

Not much of a benefit considering the dollars charged for premiums.

Exactly !

And in some areas the max won't cover one molar endo !

Guys, thanks for all the answers to my question, but is $3000 for an
implant about right?

    If that includes abutment and crown placement it's about right.

That's exactly what I meant. The $1,000 to 1,500 max hasn't kept
up with the times.
