An implant failure can trigger imaging, removal, grafting, replacement, prosthetic changes and travel. Understand the financial chain before relying on a simple “implant warranty.”
A full-arch package can involve removing several failing teeth before implant placement. Ask whether extractions, difficult teeth and surgical removal are actually included.
