Prices for Molar implant

Hello all,

I have had a molar that has cracked and cannot be repaired so will need to be extracted. I would hope to have an implant when it has had time to heal. My dentist has quoted me £2,500 (on the basis that he thinks my bones density should be fine and there should be no issues).

I just wanted to ask of:
a) Does the price sound reasonable?
b) Should I shop around?

I have no experience of this so any help/advice I’d be grateful for.

Thank you!

Price sounds fine. I'm assuming this is the implant, abutment, and crown in total? Make sure you get a big brand that has a proven track record and will be around for a long time to come, and ask for genuine parts all the way through - they should be able to provide you with barcoded labels. The 5 biggest names in the industry are listed here. I personally use Straumann and most dentists often have 1 or 2 systems they might use. You need to keep these records somewhere safe in case you ever need repair work.
