Why are the advertised prices and actual costs different for implants?

“It said 390,000 won in the subway advertisement, but when I went to the dentist, they said it was 1.2 million won.”

 

The most confusing part when looking into implants is the price difference.

When you see different prices for different ads, it can be difficult to know what criteria to use to choose.

 

Today, we will look at the implant pricing structure, which can feel complicated.

I'll organize it so that you can understand it easily and accurately.

Our goal is to help you make the right choice for you, without unnecessary worry.

 

 

 

 

📌 Why implant prices vary — Understanding the structure is key.

 

An implant is not just a 'screw'.

The three parts combine to form one tooth.

 

Fixture: A root implanted into the gum bone

 

Abutment: A post that connects the root and crown

 

Crown: The head shaped like a tooth that actually chews

 

Why do advertising amounts appear different?

Because the inclusions may vary from hospital to hospital.

 

So, during the consultation

“Is this the final cost including the crown?”

If we check this one thing, it becomes much clearer.

 

 

 

 

 

▶️ Is bone grafting really necessary?

 

The conclusion varies from case to case.

 

Implants are similar to laying the foundation when building a building.

If the height and thickness of the bone are sufficient, it can be implanted as is.

If a more stable structure is needed, additional reinforcement will be provided.

 

In other words, it is not a treatment that is ‘absolutely’ necessary.

The most accurate way to decide is to look at the condition of your gums.

 

If you check your current condition with a precision CT and listen to an explanation,

Even parts that felt complicated will be understood at a glance.

 

 

 

 

✔ So, what would be a reasonable price range?

 

Implants are made up of materials used, hospital treatment systems, and aftercare.

Several factors are taken into account when determining the cost.

 

Generally, it is around 1 million to 1.2 million won.

It is formed in a widely used average range.

Of course, this may vary depending on individual circumstances and hospital systems.

 

What's important is

“What do I need?”

“How the final cost is structured”

The question is whether these two are explained transparently.

 

Clarity of composition leads to much greater satisfaction than the price itself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

📌 Things to check when choosing an implant

 

Because implants are not a treatment that ends with just implantation.

Natural adaptation and care are required for a certain period of time after the procedure.

So, it would be helpful to check the two things below.

 

1) Warranty period

 

Many places offer a warranty period of 3 to 5 years.

This has the advantage of providing ongoing care for changes after the procedure.

 

2) Regular maintenance system

 

If regular maintenance is done well,

The lifespan and satisfaction of implants naturally increase.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

🌿 Rather than asking “Where is cheaper?”, ask “Where is right for me?”

 

Rather than deciding on implants based on a simple price comparison,

Comprehensively considering the current condition of teeth and gums and lifestyle habits

It is important to have a plan that is tailored to the individual.

 

If you get a more accurate diagnosis and consultation,

Instead of feeling anxious,

You will feel confident that “Ah, this is how it will work.”
