Frequently asked questions
What does it cost to get dental implants in the UK?
Patients can expect to pay somewhere between £2,500 and £3,500 for a single tooth implant in the UK, crown included. That figure shifts depending on several things: how the jawbone is holding up, the exact position of the tooth being replaced, and whether preparatory work like bone grafting is needed beforehand. To help spread the cost, our Bradford practice offers 0% finance over 12 months, meaning nothing needs to be paid in full upfront.
Can dental implants be obtained through the NHS?
Rarely does the NHS fund dental implants. When it does, trauma, cancer treatment or specific medical circumstances are usually behind it, which is why the vast majority of patients cover treatment privately. Serving Bradford, Wibsey, Halifax and the wider area, we operate as a fully private practice, and the full cost picture will be laid out clearly during a relaxed consultation without any pressure or expectations.
How long can dental implants be expected to last?
Provided they’re well looked after, dental implants often last 25 years or beyond, with the titanium post designed as a permanent fixture. It’s the crown sitting on top that typically needs replacing, usually somewhere between 10 and 15 years down the line. What matters most for longevity comes down to two things: keeping up thorough cleaning at home, and staying away from smoking.
Is the implant procedure painful?
Most people expect implant surgery to hurt far more than it actually does. Numbing the area completely with local anaesthetic, the appointment itself feels broadly similar to a tooth extraction, and over-the-counter pain relief typically covers whatever discomfort follows. Mild discomfort however, when it does appear, tends to peak somewhere between 48 and 72 hours afterwards, then fades.
Is it still possible to get implants if bone loss has occurred?
We don’t rule out dental implants just because bone loss has occurred. A bone graft can often build the bone back up first, creating a solid foundation for the implant to bond with. Before any treatment plan is finalised, 3D imaging gives a close look at bone density, and treating patients with reduced bone over time is something our dentists do regularly.
What does a single tooth implant cost on average?
A single implant typically costs between £2,500 and £3,500. This cost covers the dental implant, abutment and crown together. Our Bradford practice makes budgeting easier by spreading the cost through 0% finance over 12 months on plans above £500.
What are the three main types of dental implants?
Most implant treatment falls into three broad categories: single implants for one missing tooth, implant-supported bridges for groups of missing teeth, and full arch solutions like All-on-4 implants for replacing an entire jaw. How much is being replaced determines which category applies.
What's the cost of full mouth dental implants?
Starting from £13,500 per jaw, a fixed full arch of implant-supported teeth is available at Taylored Dental Care Bradford, rising to £17,995 when both arches are being replaced. Using four implants to secure a whole arch, the All-on-4 approach tends to be the most cost-effective route to a full mouth rehabilitation.
How long do dental implants last?
Good oral hygiene, an overall healthy lifestyle and regular dental check-ups go a long way — with them, dental implants can last many years, often decades. While the implant itself is built to serve as a long-term replacement, the crown sitting on top may need replacing eventually as normal wear takes its toll. Monitoring the implant during routine appointments is how your dentist helps keep it performing well for the long haul.
