Restorative dentistry is the repair department: rebuilding teeth that have cracked, been hollowed out by decay, lost their nerve or gone altogether. At Wimpole Street the guiding principle is to keep as much of your own tooth as we can, for as long as we can, and to replace what cannot be kept with something that suits your bite, your bone and your budget rather than the most expensive item on the list. Every option below carries a plain fee, a realistic lifespan and a list of what can go wrong, because a restoration chosen with open eyes tends to be looked after better and to last longer.
From £2,950 incl. crown
A titanium post placed in the jaw, left to fuse over three to six months, then topped with a crown. The closest thing to a tooth you never lost.
Read moreFrom £995
A full ceramic or zirconia cap for a tooth that has cracked, lost a large filling or been root-treated and needs holding together.
Read moreFrom £995 per unit
One to three false teeth carried on crowns fitted to the neighbours either side. Fixed, quick, and no surgery involved.
Read moreFrom £1,030
A single front tooth replaced by a pontic with a thin wing bonded behind an adjacent tooth. Almost no drilling, but only for light bites.
Read moreFrom £795
Removable acrylic, flexible or cobalt-chrome teeth for a full or partial arch, with implant retention available for those who want them fixed.
Read moreFrom £795
A removable plate replacing a few teeth while keeping the rest untouched. Three materials, three price points, honest advice on which.
Read moreFrom £695
Removing an infected nerve, sealing the canals and keeping the tooth. Success is high but not universal, and back teeth need a crown afterwards.
Read moreQuoted per plan
For mouths where many teeth are worn, broken or missing at once: a staged plan combining several treatments under one written fee.
Read moreThe right restoration depends on how many teeth are involved, what condition the neighbours are in, how much bone remains and how you feel about surgery, removable teeth and cost. These pairings are a starting point; the examination settles it.
One tooth is missing and the neighbours are healthy
An implant keeps the adjacent teeth untouched. A Maryland bridge is the gentler, cheaper option for a front tooth under a light bite. →
One tooth is missing and the neighbours already have large fillings or crowns
A conventional bridge uses those teeth as anchors and replaces their old restorations at the same time. →
A back tooth has cracked, or half of it is old filling
A crown, sometimes after a core build-up. If the crack has reached the nerve, root canal treatment comes first. →
Toothache that lingers, wakes you at night or follows a deep filling
Root canal treatment, provided the tooth has enough sound structure left to be worth saving. →
Several teeth missing on one side, or scattered gaps
A partial denture now, with implants or an implant-retained plate as a longer-term step if you want something fixed. →
Most or all teeth in an arch are gone or failing
Full dentures, implant-retained dentures or a full-arch implant bridge, chosen after scans and a frank talk about budget. →
Worn, broken and missing teeth all over the mouth
A full mouth reconstruction: one plan, staged over months, rather than patching each tooth as it fails. →
Radiographs, a bite check and, for implants, a 3D scan come before any figure is written down. A price given without them is a guess.
An onlay beats a crown, a Maryland bridge beats a conventional one and a root-treated tooth beats an extraction whenever the odds are reasonable.
Gum disease, active decay and a grinding habit are dealt with before a crown or implant is placed on top of them, otherwise the new work inherits the old problem.
You receive a staged plan with each item priced. The dentist who plans the work places it, and reviews it at the intervals the plan sets out.
