Implants are usually suitable for most people. The determing factors are how much and the quality of bone that you have. Contra indications to treatment are health problems such as diabetes or other immune suppressing conditions. Implants don’t have as much success rate in people that smoke and are usually not guarenteed in this situation.
A ct scan will probably be needed in your case to verify thickness of bone so that the implants are placed in the best areas. Full mouth implants cost in the region of £40,000 – £ 50,000.
Your mouth may be able to be restored with 4-6 implants in the top jaw and 4 -6 implants in the bottom jaw which will considerably reduce the cost of treatment, rather than having individual implants for each tooth. This treatment would still cost about £20,000. It is best to have a consultaion with an implant dentist to make sure that you have all of the treatment options before you make a decision.
