How much will a single tooth dental implant cost to replace a damaged front tooth if i do not need any gum work?

Q. I damaged my front tooth playing football and after some work to fix it i have now been told that it will need to come out as the fracture has grown. How much would i need to pay for an implant for one tooth, assuming that my gums don’t need any prep work? M

A. Dear M,

A ball-park figure would be in the region of £2000 to £5000 pounds. I’ve given you a broad range because to replace a single front tooth is one of the most challenging treatments a dentist can perform. To produce a near perfect result may require a number of crowns to be made and obviously this takes time with a corresponding fee. An average fee would be in the middle of this range but a lot depends on the experience of the dentist and the location of their practice.

Hope this helps.
