When teeth are damaged through trauma it’s extremely difficult to say what the long term prognosis will be.  In many cases root canal therapy and porcelain restorations work well so long as the underlying tooth root remains stable as root canal therapy can weaken the tooth.  Crowns and veneers etc don’t last forever unfortunately and may at some point in the future require to be replaced.

It may be that if you are experiencing recurrent infection that the long term prognosis of the teeth is not good and that implants may be a solution for you.  Implants vary in price from dentist to dentist but generally budget in the region of £2000 per implant as a guide.  Many practices do offer payment plans such as interest free or low cost finance patient loans to help you spread the cost of the treatment.

It would probably be wise for you to have a consultation with an Implant Dentist to discuss your treatment concerns.  If you’ve had x-rays taken then it’s often useful to take copies of these for your consultation. 

I hope that this helps.

To have all your teeth removed and replaced with implants is a fairly drastic step.  There may be other treatment options available to you. 

All practices charge different fees, but as a ball park guide for full arch implant retained bridgework you would be likely to spend upwards of £15,000 per arch.

As I say this may not be the most appropriate treatment option for you.

The best thing to do would be to have  consultation with a dentist who can look at your dental condition, disucss what you hope to achieve and then work with you to build a plan for moving forward.

I hope that this helps.
