    I have got great recommendations from patients attending dentists.
    Thanks for all your help and support.

    Dentists don't recommend anyone as I presume it is bad practice and could lead to legal battles between other dentists.

    Called a place today and the implant and crown is €1695. I said this is obviously for the implant and she said no for implant and crown.
    I am not going there. When asked what implants they use. She said implants direct....

    I don't know how they can charge that but I am going with someone who will do a good job and will pay for quality.
    Implants seem to be 2500-3000 for implant and crown.

    Assume that's these guys - would also assume you were talking to a receptionist who isnt dental trained.

    One of the dentists can probably say if they are common/uncommon products.

    That is what came up when I googled implant direct too.
    The dentist that uses them advertises price at €1695 for implant and crown. Too good to be true.
    I am going to someone who is more expensive as don't want to pay a third time!!

    Implants direct are good implants no problems. Its not the implants that make a good or bad job its the dentist. I have seen great results and bad results will many different implant systems. The dental scientific literature, would say that implants made of CP or alloyed titanium and a moderately rough surface all have similar integration rates. However connection type comes into play. Implants direct for instance have 5 or 6 different connect types to suits all dentist preferences.

    The Art of painting is not in the paints....its in the painter and thats what you pay for.
