Dental implants had you had one and what cost?

Hi, 

I am reaching the age where my teeth are not so good, I have had two out near the back beside each other, and the very back tooth has broken, and may well have to be extracted, so thinking about maybe a dental implant or two if I could afford. it.

I am very interested if you have had this procedure done and what costs involved,
many thanks if you can give me some info.

    I got a surfboard in the mouth about twenty years ago and lost two lower incisors. I had implants and arranged a review for a few weeks later. Colin howell was on remand before I got to see him again.

    In the UK or abroad?

    It'll easily be £2k or more for a single implant and crown in the UK but much cheaper abroad.

    You're looking at well over £6k in the UK for 3 implants.  It might be cheaper abroad for the treatment but you need to factor in the cost of travelling there at least three times (probably 4 times if you want an extraction) + hotels.

    This isn't something a forum can really advise you on.  Speak to local implantologists and those abroad and then make a decision.

    If you post in the Health and Beauty section here, this comes up a number of times.   There are even a few dentists who post there too.

    Have you spoken to your own dentist?
