Cost of Dental Implants in London

Overview: Dental implants are fast becoming the most popular choice for dental restorations in the UK. As they become more widely available, they’re also becoming more affordable. Success rates are also rising as we learn more about how to optimise the treatment plan.

How much do dental implants cost in London?

The final cost of dental implants will always depend on the patient’s individual circumstances. This is why a consultation is so vital to get a clear picture of how much you can expect this treatment to cost.

With Surrey Docks Dental, prices for a single implant start from £2,150, and this includes a crown. If you require bone grafting to prepare for the treatment, this additional treatment starts at £490. For All-On-4 treatment, costs start at £15,000 per arch.

Across the UK, prices can range from £1,500 to £3,500 for a single implant. More extensive restorations such as implant dentures will cost around £10,000 to £30,000 per arch.

What influences the price of dental implants?

Dental implant surgery is an extensive treatment plan with multiple stages. The stages can be different for every patient, which is why treatment costs can vary so much. Prices will also vary between dental practices. This is a private dental treatment, so the price isn’t determined by the NHS, as is the case with a lot of dental procedures.

The main factors that will influence the price of dental implants will include:

• The number of implants required. A single dental implant to replace one missing tooth will be less costly than an implant bridge or a full arch denture.
• Bone grafting will also drive up the price of implants. This may be required for patients with low bone density in the jaw.
• Additional treatments like dental hygiene appointments to tackle gum disease can also impact the final cost.
• Your choice of materials for the crown can also have an impact on the price of implants. The most popular choices include zirconia, E.max and porcelain fused to metal.

You should also consider the lifetime cost of dental implants. After treatment, you’ll need to pay close attention to your oral health to prevent gum disease from damaging your implant. The crown may also need to be replaced over time. The implant portion should last a lifetime with good care.

How to save on dental implants

The best way to save on dental implants would be to keep an eye on local offers. Travelling to another area for treatment can also help you to access better deals. We don’t recommend going overseas for treatment, as this could leave you without access to proper aftercare. And if something goes wrong, you won’t be protected in the same way you would be in the UK.

Spreading the cost of dental implants

One of the best ways to make your dental implants accessible and affordable is to choose a payment plan to spread the cost. This avoids the need to find a lump sum before starting treatment, so you can get started at a time that suits you. With predictable monthly payments, you’ll find it easy to budget for your dental treatment.
