Dental Implants
A dental implant is a titanium or zirconia post placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth root, topped with a crown. Implants are private treatment in almost all cases: the NHS only provides them where there is a clinical need, such as after mouth cancer or a facial injury.
The typical UK price for implants is £1,750, based on the published prices of 742 practices on OpenWide. Updated 11 November 2026. Figures are practices' published “from” prices.

How much do dental implants cost in the UK?
Prices vary with the number of teeth, whether you need a bone graft, and the type of crown. A single implant is usually quoted as a "from" price for the implant and crown together; multiple implants, implant bridges and full-arch options such as All-on-4 cost more.
Ask each practice for a written treatment plan that lists the consultation, scans (often a CBCT scan), the implant, the abutment, the crown and any grafting, so you compare like with like.
What happens during implant treatment?
Treatment starts with an assessment and 3D scan. The implant is placed under local anaesthetic, then left for around three to six months to fuse with the bone. A crown is fitted once it has healed. Most people need two to four appointments over several months.
Who is suitable for dental implants?
You need healthy gums and enough bone to hold the implant. Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes and gum disease raise the risk of failure. If bone has been lost, a graft or sinus lift may be needed first.
About Dental Implants
Dental implants are the gold standard for replacing missing teeth. A titanium post is placed in the jawbone to act as an artificial root, topped with a custom crown. They look, feel, and function like natural teeth.
