Is the gold used for dental implants valuable?

Of course it is valuable. There is an article below worth reading. Xinhua News Agency News: The price of gold has soared, and the number of gold dentures has also increased, but it still cannot stop citizens' enthusiasm for gold teeth. According to statistics, Nanjing people spend 30 kilograms of gold on gold teeth a year. In the first half of this year, a female boss with four-ringed teeth was dissatisfied with the blackening of her teeth and had 12 gold teeth replaced in one go, setting a record for the most gold teeth in Nanjing. People in Nanjing get nearly a thousand gold teeth installed every month. Six months ago, you only had to spend about 1,300 yuan to get a gold tooth. Six months later, if you decide to get another one, you will have to pay an extra four to five hundred yuan. As the price of gold soars, the price of gold teeth, which is linked to the price of gold, also rises. Dentists said that even so, the public's enthusiasm has not diminished, and patients come to have gold teeth installed almost every day. Jing Jianlong, director of the Technical Center of Nanjing Stomatological Hospital, told reporters that his center makes more than 300 gold teeth a month, using about 400 grams of gold. In a year, nearly 4,000 gold teeth are made, which is used up 10 pounds of gold. "This amount accounts for about 1/3 of the Nanjing market." Jing Jianlong said that after all, Nanjing people's spending power on gold teeth is very considerable, and they spend about 30 kilograms of gold just to install gold teeth in a year. Gold teeth have become low-key and no longer "yellow". It is understood that the people who installed gold teeth in the past few years were mainly business owners, actors, self-employed and other people with higher incomes. In recent years, with the improvement of living standards, school teachers, civil servants and ordinary workers have gradually become the "gold tooth clan". What impressed Jianlong the most was a middle-aged woman in her 40s who had a full set of 12 upper teeth installed for beauty purposes. She was the person who had the most gold teeth installed at one time. It is understood that this middle-aged woman is a businessman. Due to the use of tetracycline when she was a child, her teeth turned into black "tetracycline teeth". When discussing business with customers, you can see it when you open your mouth, which greatly affects your image. So, I spent 20,000 yuan to install 12 gold teeth. Getting a gold tooth may look beautiful, but the process is not easy. So, how are gold teeth made? How to ensure that the gold is genuine and not stolen? Yesterday, the reporter visited the Technical Center of Nanjing Stomatological Hospital and witnessed the process of making a gold tooth. "The one I just put on is the lower front tooth. Can you tell it's gold?" Yesterday morning, 38-year-old Mr. Huang became a member of the gold tooth family. At first, when his family persuaded him to get gold teeth, he was reluctant. "The gold teeth are yellow, and when you open your mouth, you look like a nouveau riche." Mr. Huang said with a smile. Later, after consulting a doctor, he learned that the gold teeth have become much more low-key now. They are no longer golden and are just made into crowns. When coated with porcelain, it looks like normal teeth and is not visible at all. In addition, gold maintains and increases in value. If it breaks in the future, he can still make money by knocking off the porcelain on the outside. Mr. Huang finally decided to install gold teeth.
