Missing lateral incisive & dental implants

lisyloo

I would expect to pay £2k - £2.5k for a local dentist that’s not in London.

i have just had a consultation in Edinburgh for 2 teeth, for the titanium implant its £1250 and for the crown on top its another £12500, so approx £5k for both teeth, but i need a bone density scan and may need bone grafting which will cost extra so costs are a bit unpredictable, but they do have a finance package that can help spread the cost, i'm ok about paying the money, its the pain and how long after i will be in pain that is worrying me!
Anyone have any idea what that is like? drilling into bone sounds very painful

Dentures are still perfectly good options. They also don't exclude the possibility of an implant later on if circumstances change.

But it is much much better to have a simple treatment done well and within your budget than to get ultra complex treatments done as cheaply as you can possibly find.

Easier than a root filling! The procedure isn't painful as you are numbed up. I found some soreness for a few days afterwards, but nothing unbearable. Each stage is less intrusive than the previous stage.

The most pain is to your purse!

I was at my dentist yesterday and reading all their info while waiting, they charge £2,250 for an implant. I'm in the south west.
