(No gold)
I have "Dental Insurance" but it is about useless. $1500 Lifetime. The $6000 was out of pocket. I failed to mention that they had to do a sinus lift and bone graft because my sinus wall was drooped way too low and there was not enough bone for the implant.

A bridge was an option at $4500, but they last 15 years and I would have had to kill and crown 2 teeth for the bridge... Not much of an option...
