A single dental implant in London — including the crown on top — typically costs between £2,000 and £3,500 at a private clinic. The wide range exists because the final figure depends on whether the site needs bone grafting, which crown material is used, and the complexity of the case. Cheaper "from" prices usually quote the implant alone, with the crown, planning and any preparatory work added later.
Why the phone-call question can't have a phone-call answer
The same missing tooth can cost £2,200 in one mouth and considerably more in another, and the difference is invisible from the outside — only a scan tells us which. Our page on dental implants in Islington explains how each case is assessed.
The four things that move the price
The implant — the titanium post, quality here isn't the place to economise.
The crown — cost depends on material and position; a front tooth takes more skill and material than a molar.
Bone grafting (sometimes) — needed if the bone has shrunk, the single biggest reason one implant costs more than another.
Complexity — gum health, old roots, and general health all feed in.

The number that matters more than the headline
A dental bridge costs less today but usually needs replacing within ten to fifteen years. A well-placed implant can last decades — spread across twenty years it's often the cheaper option, not the dearer one.
