Costs Associated with Dental Implants
Dental implants are different from routine procedures like fillings or basic tooth extractions. They are a surgical procedure and there is a higher cost compared to the majority of standard dental treatments.

Costs for Multiple Implants
It's important to realise that the "per-tooth cost" is less when opting for multiple implants, as not every missing tooth requires a dedicated implant.
Dr. Patel will employ two implants to uphold several teeth, as seen in implant-supported bridges. For instance, two implants can effectively support 3 or 4 missing teeth.

Possible Supplementary Expenses
Initially, dental implants may seem costly, especially for denture wearers who often exhibit minimal jawbone or compromised gum health—two significant issues that must be corrected before the implant procedure.
To ensure the success of your tooth replacement, corrective treatments might be necessary, such as:
- Bone grafts/regeneration
- Sinus lifts to create space for new bone
Availability of Free Dental Implants on the NHS
Getting dental implants through the NHS can be difficult, mainly because these procedures are predominantly considered cosmetic.
NHS availability is typically limited to cases where there is an urgent clinical necessity for the treatment. Given that dental implants primarily enhance aesthetic aspects, meeting the criteria for NHS funding can be difficult.
While getting dental implants for free through the NHS is uncommon, individuals may explore alternative options such as coverage through insurance (subject to provider policies) or grants, which can contribute toward the overall cost.
Factors affecting Dental Implant Costs:
Several aspects play a role in determining the cost of dental implants:
- Number of Implants: The overall price is influenced by the quantity of implants needed for the treatment.
- System and Brand Selection: Opting for premium brand implants may contribute to a higher overall cost.
- Clinician's Expertise: The experience and qualifications of the performing clinician can affect the pricing, particularly for intricate cases.
- Pre-Implant Procedures: Additional surgical procedures may be necessary in certain instances to establish a suitable foundation for the dental implant.
- Technological Advancements: Implants involve cutting-edge technology and demand precise care and expertise, contributing to their comparatively higher cost compared to alternative restorative solutions.
- Custom-Made Crowns: The crown affixed to the dental implant is often tailor-made and, in many instances, meticulously crafted by the dentist and technician.
Considerations for Overseas Dental Implants:
Exercise caution when considering cheap dental implants abroad. Not every dentist claiming to be a cosmetic dentist is qualified; thorough research is vital.
Many dental practices abroad lure patients with low-cost tooth replacement options, prompting many to seek treatment overseas. Unfortunately, we've witnessed cases where implant work performed abroad, utilizing diverse techniques and systems, necessitated corrective measures, often leaving patients with distressing conditions.
Correcting such cases poses hazards for corrective dentistry, and many dentists may avoid taking on these challenges from the outset. To reduce these risks, opt for a local dentist with a trusted reputation. Look for evidence of their expertise through reviews and before-and-after images, perhaps showcased on platforms like Instagram.

Implant Guide
Implants undergo colour matching and meticulous shaping to seamlessly harmonize with your natural teeth. Implant teeth are virtually indistinguishable from real teeth.
Long-Lasting Dental Implants
Once the implant integrates with your jawbone and surrounding tissues, the artificial titanium structure functions just like a natural root.
When we insert a titanium implant into the jawbone, it becomes an integral part of your oral structure.
This provides numerous health advantages, such as slowing or stopping bone loss, reinforcing the jawbone's structure, and diminishing the likelihood of gum disease due to better cleaning when compared to dentures.[Learn More.]
