Most complications after implant surgery such as inflammation, infection or prolonged bleeding often originate from cheap implant services. Taking advantage of the increasing demand for dental restoration, many facilities are widely advertising implant packages for only 5-7 million VND/pillar, with promises of "lifetime warranty" and "fast treatment in 15 minutes".
Behind those “delicious – nutritious – cheap” invitations are a series of potential risks. When a technique requiring high expertise is turned into a “mass” service, lacking control and information, dental implant is no longer a modern medical solution but becomes a “gamble” with health.
Cheap Implants - Attractive Offer, Imminent Health Danger
The explosion of low-cost implant services is creating a strong “wave” in the dental market. Just type in the phrase “dental implant” or “implantation”, hundreds of advertisements immediately appear with invitations that hit the consumer psychology: “Implant 7 million – lifetime warranty”, “Placement is painless, no swelling, done in 15 minutes”, “European medical standard implant, price is only 1/3 of the market price”. These advertisements make many people believe that they are finding a “bargain”. But in reality, this price is only 40 – 60% of the minimum cost to operate a standard implant procedure.
According to Dr. Pham Van Tu - implant specialist at Viet Phap International Dental Clinic, most of the implant complications fall into the group of customers who choose cheap services, without ensuring materials as well as the skills and expertise of the doctor.
Instead of a comprehensive examination, many customers only receive cursory consultation before implant surgery. No Conebeam CT scan, no bone assessment, no risk analysis – important steps are omitted to shorten time and reduce costs. When the operation is based on guesswork, the risk of misalignment of the implant, drilling in the wrong position or encroaching on the nerve area increases, leading to complications such as prolonged numbness, pain or bone loss.
Another reason is that cheap facilities often use materials of unknown origin. Poor quality implants are difficult to integrate with the jawbone, easily infected and rejected. When the body reacts to foreign materials, customers must remove the implant and redo the entire process, resulting in many times higher treatment costs.
Furthermore, the sterile control process is also a weakness of low-cost services. The operating room is not airtight, the instruments are not properly sterilized, the staff does not follow the operating room procedures... can all allow bacteria to enter, causing gingivitis, pus discharge or widespread infection. This is a group of dangerous complications that can cause jawbone loss and long-term effects on the ability to chew.
Experts added that most of the cases that had to be re-treated were due to these errors. Not only did it cost many times more, but customers also had to endure prolonged pain and disruption to their daily activities and work. This shows that the price difference does not only come from the brand and materials, but also from the entire system of machines, sterile conditions and professional capacity - factors that cannot be replaced or shortened in implant surgery.
Don't let cheap prices fool you: Warnings and instructions for choosing safe implants
Customers need to be alert to offers for “super cheap” dental implants because low prices mean risks in every step of the process. If a facility advertises implants at a price 50-70% lower than the market price, does not require a CT scan, the doctor does not disclose his name or certification, does not provide detailed treatment records or promises to be completely painless in just 15 minutes, these are all signs that need to be stopped immediately. Implants are a complex, invasive surgery that cannot be performed carelessly like a regular cosmetic service.
Dr. Pham Van Tu emphasized: “Choosing the right dental clinic from the beginning when getting dental implants is the only way to avoid having to “pay the price” later.” When in need of dental implants, customers should prioritize facilities with clear operating licenses, doctors with specialized training in implants and practical experience.
Before treatment, customers should request a CT scan to accurately assess bone density, nerve location and maxillary sinus. The implant must be a product from a reputable brand, with a LOT code, a transparent warranty and international inspection. The surgical procedure must strictly adhere to sterile standards to ensure safety.
In a field directly related to health and jawbone structure such as implant surgery, low price has never been an advantage. Only solid expertise, reputation of the treatment facility and standard procedures can ensure a safe, sustainable and trustworthy implant for customers to entrust their health to.
