Are you looking for the perfect smile but worried your health plan won’t cover dental implants?
Let’s take a look at the different payment methods to bring you one step closer to that perfect set of teeth.
Are Dental Implants Covered on the NHS?
While we’d all love a free new smile, unfortunately, dental implants are only available through the NHS in exceptional cases.
If your dentist believes it is clinically necessary to receive implants, there’s a chance you’ll be eligible.
However, if you’re primary motivation is cosmetic, you’ll have to go private.
How Much are Dental Implants?
Although implants are much more affordable than they used to be, the average cost of a single tooth implant in the UK is £2,415.
Remember, implants are a long-term solution. They may seem expensive now, but they’ll be worth it when you’re still smiling 50 years down the line.
Are Implants Covered by Health Plans?
Although most health care plans don't cover implants, dental savings plans can make the process more affordable.
Bupa Dental Care offers financing options to spread the cost of implants after an approved dentist has established the right treatment for you.
