As a fellow "dental diva" who has an expensive mouth all I can say is: get more information on the inplant. If this is a research study there should be reams of information regarding it. Most research studies do not charge a patient for services, the physician/dentist might charge an office fee but typically no charge for said study and related items. 1K to participate in a study for a dental implant sounds high to me considering my endodontist will only charge me 1.5K per implant at standard rates (and thats including office vists).
