Oregon woman was quoted $12-15K for one tooth implant. Then she told her dentist ‘not that much’ and changed the appointment

A TikTok creator who goes by the username @cascade.carls said her dentist quoted her between $12,000 and $15,000 for a single tooth implant. The exchange, which she recounted in a video, has drawn thousands of comments from viewers sharing their own dental costs.
