Key Takeaways

  • All-on-4 dental implants cost £10,000–£18,000 per arch at Specialist Dental Services, London.
  • A full mouth restoration (both arches) costs £20,000–£36,000.
  • Prices include consultation, 3D CBCT scans, digital planning, surgery, four titanium implants per arch, temporary teeth during healing, final prosthetics, and aftercare guidance.
  • All-on-4 is not available on the NHS except in rare medical cases (severe trauma, cancer treatment, or congenital conditions).
  • Costs vary by material choice, procedure complexity, dentist experience, and clinic location — London/Harley Street practices typically sit at the higher end of the UK range.

What Is an All-on-4 Dental Implant?

An all-on-4 dental implant is a full-arch tooth replacement technique that uses four strategically placed titanium implants to support an entire arch of prosthetic teeth — upper, lower, or both.

Two implants are placed vertically at the front of the jaw. The other two are angled at 30° to 45° towards the back, positioned to avoid the sinus cavities in the upper jaw and the nerve canal in the lower jaw. This angled placement is what allows all four implants to support a full arch without the need for bone grafting in many cases.

Once placed, the implants fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration — typically taking 3 to 6 months. During this healing period, patients wear a temporary fixed denture, before a permanent prosthesis is fitted.

All-on-4 vs. All-on-6: What’s the Difference?

Patients often ask whether they need All-on-4 or All-on-6. The short answer:

All-on-4All-on-6
Implants per arch46
Best forAdequate bone density, faster treatmentLower bone density, added long-term stability
Typical UK cost per arch£10,000–£18,000£12,000–£20,000+
Healing time3–6 months3–6 months

If you have significant bone loss, your dentist may recommend All-on-6, or a preparatory bone graft, for a more stable long-term result. This is assessed at your initial consultation via a 3D CBCT scan.

All-on-4 Dental Implant Cost in the UK (2026)

All-on-4 dental implants cost £10,000–£18,000 per arch in the UK at Specialist Dental Services. Full mouth treatment covering both the upper and lower jaw falls between £20,000 and £36,000.

For context, UK-wide pricing for All-on-4 in 2026 typically ranges from £9,000 to £25,000+ per arch, with London and Harley Street clinics generally sitting at the higher end due to clinician experience, premises costs, and material quality. Our pricing reflects specialist-led treatment at a Harley Street practice while remaining within the standard UK private range.

Regional Price Comparison

All-on-4 pricing varies noticeably by region, reflecting differences in clinic overheads, demand, and the concentration of specialist implantologists:

RegionTypical Cost Per Arch
Central London / Harley Street£15,000–£25,000+
Greater London (outer boroughs)£12,000–£18,000
South East England£11,000–£17,000
Midlands£10,000–£15,000
North West England (Manchester, Liverpool)£9,000–£14,000
Yorkshire£9,000–£13,000
Scotland / Wales / Northern Ireland£9,000–£14,000

Regional figures are indicative UK market ranges for 2026 and vary by individual clinic, case complexity, and materials used.

At Specialist Dental Services, our £10,000–£18,000 per arch pricing sits below the typical central London/Harley Street range shown above, reflecting specialist-led care at a more accessible price point than many comparable central London practices.

What’s included in this price:

  • Initial consultation
  • 3D CBCT scan and digital treatment planning
  • Surgical placement of 4 titanium implant fixtures per arch
  • Temporary fixed teeth during the healing period
  • Final permanent prosthesis
  • Follow-up appointments and aftercare guidance

Cost Breakdown

ItemTypical Cost
Consultation£150–£300
Surgery (implant placement, incl. anaesthesia)£5,000–£7,000
Temporary denture (per arch)£2,000
Permanent prosthesis (per arch)£5,000–£8,000
Bone grafting (if required)£500–£3,000 per site
Sinus lift (if required)£1,000–£2,500

Additional Costs to Budget For

  • Periodic professional cleaning: £150–£200 per visit
  • Tooth extraction (if needed before surgery): £100–£350 per tooth
  • Sedation (optional): £250–£600
  • Remedial work in the event of prosthetic breakage or implant complications

What Determines the Cost of All-on-4 Dental Implants?

  • Material quality — Standard titanium implants with acrylic prosthetics cost less than premium implants finished with zirconia or porcelain, which offer greater durability and a more natural appearance.
  • Procedure complexity — Cases requiring sinus lifts, bone grafting, or multiple extractions before implant placement carry higher costs.
  • Clinician experience — Specialist implantologists with a strong track record typically charge more, reflecting lower complication rates and more predictable long-term outcomes.
  • Clinic location — Practices in central London, including Harley Street, tend to price higher than regional UK clinics, reflecting both operating costs and access to specialist-level care.

Is All-on-4 Available on the NHS?

All-on-4 dental implants are not routinely available on the NHS. NHS dental services are focused on essential, medically necessary treatment rather than cosmetic or elective restorations. Exceptions are rare and generally limited to cases involving severe trauma, oral cancer treatment, or congenital conditions affecting tooth development. For context, a standard NHS Band 3 course of treatment in England costs £319.10 in 2026 — but this does not cover implant treatment. Most patients pursue All-on-4 privately.

Financing Your Treatment

Given the investment involved, many patients choose to spread the cost through dental finance plans rather than paying upfront. When comparing finance options, check:

  • Whether the plan is 0% APR or interest-bearing
  • Minimum deposit requirements
  • Whether follow-up and maintenance visits are included in the plan or billed separately

Ask your clinic directly what finance options they offer as part of your consultation.

Am I a Candidate for All-on-4?

All-on-4 is generally suitable for patients who:

  • Have lost most or all of their teeth in one or both arches
  • Have adequate bone density in the front of the jaw (assessed via CBCT scan)
  • Want a fixed, non-removable alternative to dentures

You may need additional preparatory treatment — such as bone grafting or a sinus lift — if you have experienced significant bone loss. Patients with uncontrolled diabetes, active gum disease, or heavy smoking habits should discuss these factors with their dentist, as they can affect healing and implant success rates.

Is All-on-4 Worth the Cost?

All-on-4 implants have reported survival rates of around 95% or higher over several years of clinical follow-up, with proper aftercare. Compared with traditional dentures, which sit on the gums and can shift or require adhesives, All-on-4 is fixed directly to the jawbone — offering greater stability, a stronger bite, and no risk of slipping.

Over a 10–20 year period, the total cost of replacing and maintaining dentures (relines, adhesives, replacements every 5–7 years) can approach the cost of All-on-4 implants, without the same functional or bone-preserving benefits.
