Dental Implant Costs

Dental implants are the ideal solution to replace multiple missing teeth in one go or to target individual tooth loss.

Dental implants provide an advanced treatment solution for patients wanting to avoid dentures or bridges.

Often the chosen treatment to renew and complete a patient’s smile, dental implants offer patients a permanent, long-lasting fix to close gaps caused by teeth lost to accident, trauma, gum disease or decay.

Do you qualify?

The success of your dental implant treatment will rely on the following oral states:

• Sufficient amount of bone in the jaw
• Clean and healthy mouths free of gum disease
• All tooth decay treated

So, how much do they cost?

Implant Consultation	£100
Implant Placement	£1,250
Crown	£1,200

The price of dental implants can vary depending on where you are in the UK and the practice you choose.

Another critical point to mention is that it’s difficult to price one final cost as every patient is different and has different requirements.

For example, if you require additional treatments like bone regeneration or sinus lifts, this will be an extra cost to the final bill of your reconstruction.

You will first need to consult with a dentist to put together an individual treatment plan for specific costs.

What’s included for FREE?

• Consultation with a treatment coordinator (if you are serious about the treatment, you can book a redeemable, paid for consultation with the specialist dentist)
• Aftercare and follow up appointments
• X-rays and impressions

A breakdown of all implant costs

Single implant prices

Our inclusive single dental implant treatment costs £2,995 and includes the abutment and crown.

It is also important to note that the “cost per tooth” is reduced in the case of multiple implants since you will not necessarily have an implant for each missing tooth.

Our dentists do this by using two implants to support several teeth (the all-on-four method). For example, two implants can keep 3 or 4 missing teeth.

All-on-Four costs

The All-on-Four procedure comes with a rather hefty price tag, which means patients need to understand before precisely what they will be getting from this treatment.

With this treatment, you will be paying for the skill of the dentist, the number of implants and the abutment teeth. Plus, the fact it’s an instant, same-day procedure.

All-on-Four costs begin from £4,000 per jaw, which saves patients experiencing total tooth loss a considerable amount of money compared to the single traditional implant cost, which starts from £2,000 per tooth.

Comparing the cost to other restorative procedures

• Cosmetic dentures cost from £750 – considering they will need to be replaced every five years, over a lifetime, cosmetic dentures can cost you over £5,000.

Potential additional costs:

Implants at first may appear expensive – this is because denture wearers are known to have very little jawbone or poor gum health, which are two serious conditionals that will need correcting before your implant procedure.

Without sufficient jawbone or good gum health, your implant might fail, so for your tooth replacement method to be successful, we need to carry out prior treatments like:

• Bone grafts/regeneration
• Sinus lifts to make room for new bone
• Laser gum surgery (from £550)

Can I get dental implants for free via the NHS?

Because implants are considered cosmetic, they are very rarely redeemable via the NHS.

The NHS will only pay for treatment if there is an immediate clinical need for the procedure. Because implants enhance a patient’s aesthetics, they do not easily fall under this category.

There are ways patients can get dental implants for free, through insurance (check with your provider), through grants (which will pay a portion of the cost) and through dentistry schools, which offer free or low-cost procedures so dental students can gain experience.

Considerations that might affect the price:

• Number of implants required
• Type of system and brand selected for the treatment. Premium brand implants tend to be more at the higher cost end of the spectrum than many cheaper alternatives.
• Experience of the clinician carrying out the surgery. A more experienced and more qualified to perform these procedures will probably be slightly more expensive than those dentists who do not dedicate their entire practice to implants.
• Pre-implant procedures: In occasional cases, other surgical procedures are required to form the correct foundation for the tooth implant.
• Additional procedures can include periodontal treatments, bone grafting, and gum grafting work. Extra foundational work can add to the cost of the implant treatment.

The matter of fact is that implants use much more advanced technology and require specialist skills and attention. This is why the work involved can cost more than other restorative solutions.

Not only this, but the fact that dental implants are much more durable is that they use stronger, high-quality materials that give a natural, polished finish.

The crown that attaches to the dental implant is custom-made and, in most cases, handcrafted by the dentist.

Be cautious of cheap dental implants abroad!

Be careful – any dentist can claim they are a cosmetic dentist, which means you have to shop around before choosing the right cosmetic dentist.

Dental practices abroad offer low-cost tooth replacement options, which has encouraged many patients to go overseas to seek treatment.

The patient believes they will be saving a lot of money, but the reality of this is very bleak.

We cannot tell you the number of times we have had to work extra hard to reverse the implant work of dentists abroad, who use different techniques, implant systems and leave patients in the most shocking of states.

In cases like this, it is hazardous for another dentist to correct hard work, and many dentists avoid these cases from the get-go.

Prevent this by going to a local dentist you trust, who can prove their results through reviews and before and after images on Instagram.
