Dental Implants

[evie_2]

Hi

I have six tooth dental bridge that has two false teeth and 4 natural teeth holding the bridge on my upper jaw (front). The dental bridge is about 15 years old. My dentist has told me that 2 of my natural teeth holding the bridge are infected and needs to be extracted. However, he also informs me that the other 2 that are not infected needed to be extracted too as these have been heavily worked on when the bridge was originally done. I also have another tooth to be extracted.

To give you a clearer picture:-
Central incisor = 2 x false teeth (removed aged 13)
Lateral incisor = 2 x both infected and to be extracted
Canine = 2 x part of the bridge no infection but was advised to be extracted.
First premolar = 1 x right hand side

I'm not particulary keen on having dentures and would prefer a more permanent option.

Can you tell me how many implants I would need and how much will this cost? Will I also need bone grafting if so how much will this cost?

Thank you for your post.

This sort of treatment has many variables such as the number of implants needed and the amount of bone needed and without seeing your mouth and doing further investigations, we cant give an accurate quote.

Generally speaking, I think you are asking me for the cost of replacing 6 front teeth with implants. There are many different options in this situation, one option would be:

Four implants and two separate 3 unit implant supported bridges. such a thing would cost:

4 extractions 4 * £100
One temporary denture £250
4 implants 4 * £1690
2 bridges 2 * £400
Bone grafting ranges from £500 to £1750 depending on size and amount
