I had 6 implants placed and they are doing great. It was a long fight with my medical insurance. They were happy to pay to have the teeth removed before treatment. But they would not pay to replace them. My company is self insured and it took them to rewrite the contract to get it done. If I had to pay for it, I would still be with out back teeth. I know just placing the teeth was 7k and the implants were close to 10k or more.

Round 1 5/2007 - 35 Rad treatments and 6 chemo of cisplatin
TPN feeding for 5 months during treatment and after.
Tumor was on the right side of the tongue.

Round 2. Tumor on the lower back right jaw area. Surgery on 3/12/2010 to remove the tumor, rebuild the jaw and some work on the back tongue.
