Re: Dental Treatment
Filling 30-50 euros
Check clean/ polish 25 euros
Crown 200 euros
Implant approx 1,000 euros
These prices vary in different dentists, some charge 50 plus for check, clean and polish!
Private treatment in Spain is cheaper than private treatment in UK.
In UK with NHS treatment, fillings would be much cheaper, but white fillings would only be available for front teeth. In Spain, they tend to use white fillings only for all teeth.

Re: Dental Treatment
Can anyone else shed some light on dental costs in Benidorm/Albir area?
I got back from Benidorm last week and had a bit of a problem with a cracked filling. I called my dentist who informed me that as i missed an appointment 13 month ago they have removed me from the register.
I called the NHS emergency dentist who fixed my filling with a temporary filling that would last 4-6 weeks.
I phoned another dentist who says they only do NHS work and private was not possible. (have you ever heard anything so crazy?) I then phoned another who says i can wait 5 weeks for an appointment as a private customer. I was getting angry at this point.
I am going back to Benidorm and Albir on the 23rd and i get my filling fixed and some other small things done to my teeth.
Going by what Michael74 paid, i think that's super expensive compared to the UK.
Any advice would be most welcome.

For general treatment of a clean polish check and filling the cost doesnt seem to bad

Re: Dental Treatment
My experience of dentistry in Spain is excellent. I still have a dentist in Oliva, and am considering getting any work done that I need over there whilst combining with a "holiday"
Fillings normally about €40
I had root canal and associated work done a while back for around €200
