Dental Implant Components
There are actually three components you need to know about: the dental implants themselves, the 'abutment' and the crown. It is only when you add all three prices together that you will find the probable cost of having your dental implants fitted. It is quite common for dental clinics to advertise a low price for the actual implants, but when the abutment and crown costs are added then the result can be surprisingly high.
You need to be interested in to 'Total Cost' of an implant restoration.
Different Dental Implant Systems
To confuse matters even further many clinics will offer a number of different implant systems and it is implied that you might have a choice as to which one you buy. In truth however your oral surgeon will tell you which implant is most appropriate for your personal circumstances. It won't always be the cheapest in the range of dental implants they advertised.
You would be quite wrong to assume that the most expensive 'brand' of implant is always the best. Different implant types are more suitable for particular circumstances than others. Your implant surgeon must advise you on this choice.
Dental Implant Surgery
Not all clinics include the surgeon's time when they advertise a cost for implants. You need to make sure there will be no such hidden extras.
The Surgeon who sets your Dental Implants
Sadly, not all implant surgeons have the same level of expertise. Studies into why Dental Implants sometimes fail repeatedly show the skill and experience of the implant surgeon as being one of the key features of a successful implant operation.

Bone deficiencies
A good quality and quantity of bone is needed to withstand the dynamic forces inside the mouth. When teeth have been lost or when there have been gum problems this can lead to lead to a loss of bone. There are procedures to compensate for this. They are performed during the implantation operation, but do increase the overall cost.
Bone Augmentation and Sinus Lifts
An augmentation procedure may be necessary to ensure successful implantation. This can be done during the implantation operation and so probably won't increase your time away from home. It will however increase the cost of your treatment.
There are no reliable 'rules of thumb' as to who will and who will not need bone augmentation and the only way to be sure is through an x-ray. If you have a recent 'panoramic x-ray' you can send us a copy as an email attachment for Professor Szabo's evaluation. The Professor will then send you a reliable personal quotation.

Multiple Restoration
Where multiple adjacent teeth are to be restored this may be done using a bridge. In this case you may not need one implantation for each tooth. Replacing three teeth using a bridge may cost a total of only £1590 and not £2190 as might be thought from a price list.
