Treatment for personal accidents that result in damage to teeth often involve the use of dental bridges, dental crowns, dental implants, dental porcelain veneers or dentures. This kind of treatment can be costly with dental implant fees at between £1200 – £3000 per tooth.
Replacing a permanent tooth with a Dental Implant carries the same responsibilities in terms of informed consent as a surgical procedure, however it often requires a decision to be made shortly after the injury, often by a distraught patient or parent otherwise precious bone that the implant fixes into can be lost and a bone graft may be required. The medico-legal aspects of dental implants are quite complex .
