I’ve Not Looked After My Oral Heath Recently And Would Like To Know If I Could Get Implants Through The NHS?

Q.
Hi Dr Shaffie, I hope you can help. I used to be really good at going to see my dentist and looking after my teeth, but when I was a child and teens, my dad and  I moved and went to a new dentist and he was really hurting me and was rough. After that I stopped looking after my teeth as well as I should, I did not go any dentist until my teeth needed pulling, I know I don’t look after my teeth the way I should. I would like to know if I could get tooth implants on the NHS, and if not, how much would each one cost individually? Thank you for your time and consideration in advance.

Hello and thank you for your enquiry. This is a common question I am asked. Unfortunately implant treatments are not available under the NHS as they are considered cosmetic. Each implant including a post on top and a crown will cost approximately £2000. I hope this helps you decide which course of action you would like to take in the future. Best wishes, Dr Hussein Shaffie.
