A single dental implant typically costs £2,583 in the UK, according to August 2026 research covering more than 8,000 dental practices. At Bank Dental Practice in Prestwich, Manchester, a single implant costs £2,995, including the abutment and crown. A full arch costs £15,500 on four implants and £16,500 on six.
That UK figure comes from research by myTribe Insurance. The research does not say whether it includes the abutment and crown, so check what a quote covers when you compare dental implant cost between practices. Bank Dental Practice is a fully private practice and does not offer NHS treatment, and your dentist confirms the exact cost following a consultation. You can read how treatment works on our dental implants page.
How Much Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants cost from £2,995 for a single tooth to £16,500 for a full arch on six implants at Bank Dental Practice. The fee depends on how many teeth are being replaced and what is fitted on top of the implants.
| Treatment | Private Fee |
| Single implant, including abutment and crown | £2,995 |
| Implant retained denture on two implants (removable) | £6,500 |
| Implant retained denture on three implants (removable) | £8,500 |
| Implant retained denture on four implants (removable) | £10,000 |
| All on Four | £15,500 |
| All on Six | £16,500 |
| Bone grafting | From £270 |
These figures match our published private fees and were correct in October 2026.
How Much Does a Single Dental Implant Cost?
A single dental implant costs £2,995 at Bank Dental Practice. That fee covers all three parts of the new tooth.
The implant is a small post, usually titanium, placed in the jawbone, where it does the job of a tooth root. The abutment is the connector that sits on top of the implant. The crown is the visible tooth, made to match the teeth beside it.
When you compare quotes for a single implant, check that all three parts are included. A fee that covers the implant alone is not the full dental implant cost.
How Much Do Full Mouth Dental Implants Cost?
All on Four costs £15,500 and All on Six costs £16,500. Each replaces a full arch of teeth with a fixed bridge, held on four or six implants.
Both fees include the bridge itself, which is a chrome cobalt hybrid prosthesis. The bridge stays in place and is only removed by the dentist. Whether four or six implants are used depends on the amount and quality of bone in the jaw.
Replacing both the upper and lower teeth is priced following a consultation, once scans show what each arch needs.
How Much Do Implant Retained Dentures Cost?
An implant retained denture costs £6,500 on two implants, £8,500 on three implants and £10,000 on four implants.
This is a removable denture that clips onto the implants, so it holds more firmly than a denture that rests on the gum. It costs less than a fixed bridge, because a removable denture is simpler to make and can be held on as few as two implants. You can compare it with our other private dentures before you decide.
What Will You Pay in Total for a Dental Implant?
The treatment fee is the largest part of the cost, but three other things can add to it.
The first is the consultation. An initial consultation with our treatment coordinator is free, and a consultation with the implant dentist costs £120.
The second is the planning. An implant is usually planned with a 3D scan of the jaw, and your written treatment plan will show whether there is a separate fee for it.
The third is bone grafting. An implant needs enough bone to hold it, and where bone has been lost a graft rebuilds it first. Bone grafting costs from £270, and a membrane costs £480 where one is needed. Your treatment plan will show which of these your case requires.
If a failing tooth has to come out before the implant is placed, the tooth extraction is charged as a separate fee. You will be given the full cost in writing before any treatment begins.

What Affects Dental Implant Cost in the UK?
Dental implant cost in the UK varies between practices, but the same factors shape every quote. The same research found a gap of £890 between cheaper and pricier practices for a single implant.
The number of implants matters most, because each one is placed and restored separately. The condition of the jawbone comes next, since grafting adds both a fee and healing time. What sits on top of the implants also changes the price, as a single crown, a removable denture and a fixed bridge are made in different ways.
The location of the practice and the materials used also play a part. That is why two quotes for what sounds like the same treatment can differ, and why an itemised plan is the fairest way to compare them.
Why Do Dental Implants Cost More Than Other Options?
Dental implants cost more than a denture or a bridge because they involve a minor surgical procedure, precision components and a custom made crown. Treatment is also spread over several appointments, with healing time between them.
An implant replaces the root as well as the visible tooth. A denture or a bridge replaces the visible tooth only, which is why both cost less at the start. Your dentist can explain all three options, so you can weigh the fee against how each one looks, feels and is cared for.
Is It Cheaper to Get Dental Implants Abroad?
The treatment fee abroad can be lower, but the fee is not the whole cost. Implant treatment is carried out in stages, so travel, accommodation and return visits all need adding to the total.
It is also worth knowing who would put things right if a problem appeared after you came home. The General Dental Council publishes guidance for patients on going abroad for dental treatment. It suggests asking who will carry out the treatment and what their qualifications are, whether they are registered with a regulator, and whether the work is guaranteed. It also suggests asking what aftercare is provided, and whether treatment for complications is included in the price.
The same guidance advises speaking to your own dentist before you commit. They know your dental history and can tell you what your treatment is likely to involve.
How Do You Get an Exact Price for Dental Implants?
An exact price follows an assessment, because the number of implants and the need for grafting only show on an examination and a scan. You then receive a written treatment plan with every fee listed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can You Get Dental Implants on the NHS?
Rarely. NHS implants are generally limited to patients with a specific clinical need, so most people have them privately. Bank Dental Practice is a fully private practice and does not offer NHS treatment.
How Much Does It Cost to Replace an Implant Crown?
A replacement implant crown costs £1,200 at Bank Dental Practice, including a milled abutment. This applies when the implant itself is healthy and only the crown needs renewing.
Is Dental Implant Treatment Painful?
An implant is placed under local anaesthetic, so the area is numb throughout. You may feel pressure during the procedure, and some soreness afterwards is normal for a few days. Your dentist will give you aftercare advice before you leave.
How Long Does Dental Implant Treatment Take?
It varies. Many implants are left to heal for a few months before the final crown is fitted, while some cases allow teeth to be fitted sooner. Your treatment plan will set out the timeline for your case.
