The truth is, however, that because they\u2019re completely customized to your smile, there\u2019s no \u2018one-size-fits-all\u2019 price for dentures. Here\u2019s a closer look at three factors that affect what you\u2019ll pay for false teeth, and why when it comes to your oral health, quality matters!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Denture Size and Style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The size and style of your dentures depend on how many teeth you need to replace. If you\u2019re only missing a few, you may only need a partial denture. For those needing to restore an entire arch, a full denture or implant denture are excellent solutions. Different sized dentures come with their own prices. Generally, the more teeth you\u2019re replacing, the more expensive they will be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Denture Material<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The next factor to consider is the material your new dentures are made of. In most cases full dentures are made of an acrylic base with either porcelain or acrylic teeth. While acrylic teeth are more affordable, porcelain looks more realistic and typically lasts longer, too. You can also have the denture base lined with a durable metal mesh which enhances the stability of the prosthetic for an additional cost if you\u2019d like!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preliminary Oral Health Treatments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If this is your first time wearing dentures, you may require some preliminary treatment before your mouth is ready for your prosthetics, such as gum disease treatment or tooth extractions. Because these aren\u2019t factored into the cost of your restorations, each incurs its own separate fee. Thankfully, some of these treatments <em>may<\/em> be partially covered by dental insurance but be sure to verify coverage with your provider first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How You Can Make Dentures More Affordable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have seen those coupons or advertisements for \u201cdiscount\u201d or \u201cbargain\u201d dentures in your mailbox. Unfortunately, while these may <em>seem<\/em> like a good way to save money, they often end up being either a scam, or a misleading sales tactic to sell you a more expensive pair once you realize how inferior the discount pair really is. Worse still, if you <em>do<\/em> get the bargain prosthetics, they are frequently uncomfortable, look fake, and fall apart or wear down faster, requiring you to repair or replace them much sooner. &nbsp;When all is said and done, they can ultimately cost <em>more<\/em> than if you\u2019d just invested in a quality restoration from the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, your dentist understands the importance of having a complete smile, which is why they are so happy to welcome your dental insurance and even offer solutions like flexible financing that can help make the cost of your dentures more manageable. To learn more about which options your dentist offers, give their front desk a call for assistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, because there are many factors to consider when restoring your smile, there\u2019s no such thing as a flat fee for dentures. To learn more about your options for your own restoration and to get a price quote, schedule a consultation with your dentist today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At <a href=\"https:\/\/www.norwooddentalcare.com\/meet-the-dentists.html\">Norwood Dental Care<\/a>, the skilled and compassionate father and son team of Dr. John Michaels and Dr. David Michaels want to see you smile!
