Frequently asked questions
How much do dental implants cost in the UK?
A single tooth implant in the UK generally falls between £2,500 and £3,500 with the crown included. Your actual price depends on bone quality, where the tooth sits in your mouth, and whether anything extra (like a bone graft) is needed first. At our Airedale Road practice, we offer 0% finance over 12 months to make spreading the cost straightforward.
Are dental implants available on the NHS?
NHS implants are rare and usually reserved for very specific cases like trauma or cancer recovery, so most patients pay privately. We’re a fully private practice serving Keighley, Skipton, Ilkley and the wider Aire Valley, and we’ll walk you through every option in your consultation.
How long do dental implants last?
With good care and regular check-ups, dental implants frequently last 25 years or more, and many last a lifetime. The titanium post that sits in your jaw is designed to be permanent, while the crown on top usually needs replacing every 10 to 15 years from normal wear and tear. Daily cleaning and not smoking will give yours the best chance.
How painful are dental implants?
Most patients tell us afterwards that placing an implant is much gentler than they had imagined. It’s broadly comparable to having a tooth taken out: you’ll have local anaesthetic during the appointment, and a few days of over-the-counter painkillers usually do the job afterwards. Any tenderness tends to peak around day 2 or 3, then settles quickly.
Can you get dental implants if you have bone loss?
Yes, in many cases implants are still possible even after bone loss, though you may need a graft first to give us a solid base to work from. During your consultation we use 3D scans to map your bone density and design a plan around it. Our experienced implant dentists are used to working with less than ideal conditions using modern techniques.
What is the average cost of a one-tooth implant?
A single implant typically lands between £2,500 and £3,500, with the implant itself, the abutment and the crown all included. At our Airedale Road practice we offer 0% finance over 12 months, which breaks the total down into manageable monthly payments.
What are the 3 types of dental implants?
The three main categories are single tooth implants (one missing tooth), implant-supported bridges (a run of missing teeth) and full mouth solutions like All-on-4 (an entire arch). Each is designed for a different scenario, and what suits you depends on how many teeth need replacing.
How much do full mouth dental implants cost?
A full arch fixed bridge on implants starts from £13,500 per arch at TDC, or from £17,995 if you need both top and bottom. All-on-4 is often the most cost-effective route to replacing every tooth in a jaw, because just four implants support the whole arch.
Are dental implants painful?
Most people report the appointment is much more comfortable than they expected, broadly on a par with a routine extraction. We numb everything with local anaesthetic, and IV sedation is available if you would like to be more deeply relaxed. You’ll go home with clear aftercare so any mild soreness is easy to manage.
