Five to seven days in one trip: consultation and scan on day 1, preparation and temporaries on day 2, a lab day, a try-in on day 4 and the final fitting on day 5. Plan 6–7 nights with one spare day.
No. The implant needs 3–6 months to integrate with the bone before the final crown or bridge is fitted. Implants are a two-trip treatment; anyone promising final implant teeth in one week is skipping the healing stage.
Extractions, root canals and gum treatment found on the X-ray, sedation, sometimes temporaries and the night guard, hotel nights beyond those stated, and flights. Ask for the list in writing.
It is legitimate when the CT scan shows insufficient bone, but it should be predicted from your X-ray before you fly and priced in writing. A graft that appears on the day with no warning is a red flag.
Line by line: material and brand per tooth, what is included, what is conditional, whether the total is final, currency and payment terms, and the name of the treating dentist. Two quotes £440 apart are fine if you can see what the £440 buys.
Any UK or Irish dentist can adjust a bite, re-cement a loose crown or do a hygienist clean. Remakes are done either at home at UK prices or back at the clinic. Take home the tooth-by-tooth plan, the material and brand per tooth, the implant passport, a final X-ray and the dentist's licence number — and read the clinic's written repair policy for what it covers and who pays travel.
Straumann and Nobel have the longest research record and parts available worldwide; Osstem and Medentika (owned by the Straumann Group) are solid mid-range choices. For healthy bone in a non-smoker the difference is small; for thin bone, smokers or full-arch cases, ask about the premium surface. Whatever you choose, get the brand and model in the plan and the implant passport after surgery.
