Just over one year ago my wife had 3 implants done she had the screws fitted first and when we went back six months later she had the work finished she also had 14 crowns done at this time so she was in the chair for quite awhile.
The Doctor was Indra Guizot and he has a clinic in Denpasar He said that it is better to allow time for the screws to bed in before finishing the inplants but if time was not on your side he would do the complete jod within the week but stressed that it was better to wait .
His cost at the time was Au. $1000 per implant and Au.$300 per crown my wife had several root canal and this was included in the price.
I had one crown done and this took four days to do cost Au. $300
The new teeth are porcelin and he matches them in with the teeth colour surrounding them.
He is highly reccomended also and most of his clients are tourists that have been referred to him by other travellers.
