Dental implants Northern Ireland

kah22

As a result of an accident many years ago I slowly lost my upper teeth. At that stage implants were not an option they were just to costly but now that I'm retired and have some cash gathered up I'm thinking of using it towards implants

From what I've read the loss of bone makes this more difficult but not impossible.  My reading suggests there are two options, maybe more, a bone graft ie bone taken from other part of your body, or artificial bone and then the bone is strong enough to hold the screw in place?

The second option seems to be having what is called 'all on 4 and, 'all on 2'. I've seen mentioned 'All on 6' but can't find much about it. These ar all costly options and I'm trying to get a feel for how much this will cost.  

So anybody here in the North received that sort of treatment or know anything about the costs. I appreciate each individual is different but a ball park figure, something that will give me a clue as what to expect.

It would not be proper to mention the dentist I'm currently dealing with. I will say she her practise is in County Down, if there are anyone willing to talk on a one to one basis then please message

Hi kevin I had a fairly spectcular fall in the ice and lost my 2 front teeth (nightmare) my denist referred me to the clinic she uses in North Belfast. Like yourself I am recently retired and can afford to have this done. My understanding and I haven't had full consultation et, is that additional bone can be grown but it is a fairly lengthy process. I have been quoted £2000 per tooth. I hope that helps.
