    Implants £3-500 in Romania, and much higher standards than third world Britain...

    Also a very good place for a holiday, ski if you go in winter, Black Sea coast in summer

      I have just had a crack in another molar on the right and dentist says loosing that molar could result eventually in more tooth loss/fracture at the bottom right and suggested I have 2 implants on that side.......

      So 2 implants to replace lost tooth.
      Are those the back teeth? Whats the point no one can see them. I just got braces put it for top teeth, should take 6 months cost 3k. Feels like someone has wired lego to my mouth.

        If you replace the back teeth you prevent extra pressure on the remaining, real, teeth.

            I am thinking of having implants and wondering the experiences of those that have had them done.

            My surgery is charging about £2k per implant. At those prices, I am certainly in the wrong job!
            If you fancy digging around people's mouths, perhaps.

              I'd rather French kiss my mother-in-law than have someone screw lumps of metal into my jaw. I looked into it once and when "pain management team" was mentioned, I went no further.
              Had a bridge a few months ago to fill a gap at the front. Glued on and it's great and only cost a ton.

                Reviving this thread 'cos I've realised I only need to lose either pre-molar (which are both root filled) and I've got a nasty gap.

                Looking at getting 3 done but will need sinus lift for each one so looking at a total of £10.5 k if I go with my dentist's recommendation

                At the other end of the extreme I can get it done for £200 per implant in Mumbai.

                There must be a sensible middle path.....

                  I'm just going through this now - first session in about an hour. 7.5k for 2 implants (all 4 front teeth). Takes up to 6 months.

                      Just like the IT offshoring the middle path is:
