The quick answer
In 2026, a single dental implant including the crown typically costs £2,500–£3,500 at UK private practices, and £3,000–£4,500 in central London. At Toothi in Edgware (North London), a single tooth implant including the crown starts from £1,995 — with a free consultation and 0% finance over 12–60 months. Suitability and the final price are always confirmed after clinical assessment and a 3D scan.

How much is an implant tooth on its own?
When people ask “how much is an implant tooth?” they usually mean the finished result — the part you can see and chew on. That finished tooth is actually three components, and this is where quotes stop being comparable:
- The implant — the titanium post placed into the jaw bone, which takes the place of the root.
- The abutment — the connector that joins the post to the tooth above it.
- The crown — the visible tooth, made to match the shade and shape of the teeth beside it.
Some advertised prices cover only the first of those three. Our from-£1,995 figure is the finished tooth: implant, abutment and crown together. When you are comparing the price of dental implants between practices, the question worth asking is simply “what is the total, finished-tooth price, and what is not included?”
Full mouth dental implants: what does a whole arch cost?
Replacing every tooth in an arch does not mean one implant per tooth. A full arch is normally restored on four to six implants supporting a fixed bridge — which is why full mouth dental implants cost far less than the arithmetic suggests.
- Implant-retained dentures — two to four implants holding a removable overdenture firmly in place. £7,995 at Toothi; typically £8,000–£14,000 nationally.
- Fixed full-arch bridge (often marketed as All-on-4) — four or more implants carrying a fixed bridge that you do not remove. Commonly £10,000–£16,000 per arch in the UK and considerably more in central London. We price this after assessment, because bone volume, the number of implants needed and any grafting genuinely change the figure.
- Both arches — usually less than double a single arch, but again only quotable after a scan.
We will not quote a full-mouth figure over the phone, and we would be cautious of anyone who does. What we can tell you at the free consultation, after a 3D scan, is a written, all-inclusive price with monthly options.
Why do implant prices vary so much?
- Location and overheads. The implant systems and materials used in Mayfair are the same ones used in Edgware. A large part of a £4,000+ central London quote is the postcode, not the dentistry.
- What’s actually included. Some low headline prices exclude the crown, the abutment, X-rays or follow-ups. Always ask for the total, finished-tooth price. Our from-£1,995 figure includes the implant, the abutment and the crown.
- Bone grafting or sinus lifts. If you’ve been missing a tooth for a while, you may need bone augmentation first — this is priced on assessment after your scan.
- The number of teeth being replaced. Replacing several teeth rarely means one implant per tooth — an implant-retained bridge or denture is usually far more cost-effective.
Implants vs bridge vs denture: which is right for you?
| Dental implant | Bridge | Denture | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical cost (Toothi) | from £1,995 | from £595 per unit | from £595 (partial) |
| Lifespan | 20+ years, often lifelong | 10–15 years | 5–8 years |
| Protects jaw bone | Yes | No | No |
| Affects neighbouring teeth | No | Yes — they’re filed down | No |
| Feels like a natural tooth | Closest match | Good | Variable |
A bridge or denture is cheaper on day one, but implants often work out better value over a lifetime: they don’t sacrifice healthy neighbouring teeth, they help maintain the bone that supports your face shape, and they don’t need remaking every few years. Longevity figures are typical ranges — individual outcomes vary with hygiene, health and habits.
Spreading the cost: 0% finance
At Toothi, any treatment over £250 can be spread with 0% interest over 12–60 months. A £1,995 single implant works out at about £33 per month over 60 months. You can check your finance options here in a couple of minutes. Finance is subject to status and eligibility.
Can I get implants on the NHS?
Only in rare cases — usually after facial injury or cancer treatment. For a routine missing tooth, implants are a private treatment in the UK, which is why comparing genuine, all-inclusive prices matters.
Frequently asked questions
How much is an implant tooth in the UK?
Typically £2,500–£3,500 for a single implant with the crown at UK private practices, and £3,000–£4,500 in central London. At Toothi in Edgware it starts from £1,995 including the implant, abutment and crown. Your own figure is confirmed after a clinical assessment and 3D scan.
How much for full mouth dental implants?
Implant-retained dentures on two to four implants are £7,995 at Toothi, against a typical UK range of £8,000–£14,000. A fixed full-arch bridge commonly costs £10,000–£16,000 per arch in the UK; we price this on assessment because bone volume and the number of implants needed vary considerably between patients.
Does getting a dental implant hurt?
The placement is done under local anaesthetic and most patients describe it as easier than an extraction. Mild soreness for a few days is common and usually manageable with over-the-counter painkillers, although experiences differ.
How long do dental implants take?
Typically 3–6 months from placement to final crown, allowing time for the implant to fuse with the bone. Some cases qualify for faster protocols — your scan will tell us.
How long do implants last?
With good hygiene and regular check-ups, many last decades. We recommend implant hygiene visits (£150) to look after them. Longevity varies between individuals.
Why are implants less expensive in Edgware than central London?
Same implant systems, same 3D-guided planning, same GDC-registered clinicians — without W1 rent. Toothi is around 20 minutes from central London by tube and open at weekends.
