One and two decades ago, I had four full implants (as opposed to "mini" implants). My dentist STRONGLY recommended AGAINST cantilever.
A decade plus ago, a friend was a long haul trucker. He told me there's a stretch of highway (back then) in NC that had a boatload of dentists and, when he needed dental work that's where'd he'd head to. He's long dead so, I cannot get any information for you but, I expect searching online should get you some answers. Good luck!
And YES, dental work, especially implants and crowns, are obscenely expensive.
I had a co-worker who went there last year to get a lot of work done. He said the savings were huge. I can’t remember the exact town either.
If it was out in the western part of NC near Ft Bragg, my former brother-in-law is part of that bunch. He went through Army ROTC, dental school, and then served as a dentist in the Army for a few years. Somehow during that he went through airborne training as well. He liked the area and found a practice there that he bought into after his time in and eventually bought it out about 25 years ago. Now has several offices in the area with others working for him. His practice and others in the area cater to the needs of service members and their families, and price their services accordingly. This would be in the Fayetteville area, it has been over 15 years since I was down there so don't recall which highway had the cluster of offices.
