Dentures available today are generally one of 5 types and each has a different price point.

Economy Dentures– Economy dentures are designed to be inexpensive, sacrificing both fit and appearance for a lower cost. Because they are not highly customized and can be completed quickly, they are often sold as “dentures in a day.” Some of our patients have even joked that these only come in small, medium, and large, which would account for their often very poor fit.

Traditional Dentures– Traditional dentures are the most commonly used denture by general dentists. They typically fit okay and look okay, but they often lack in functionality. Not only can they slip and click during talking and eating, but they do not stimulate the jawbone like natural teeth, resulting in loss of bone mass. Perhaps most bothersome to patients is that the lack of stability in eating prevents them from enjoying their favorite foods like steak, apples, or corn on the cob.

Deluxe Dentures– Deluxe dentures is a much better choice than traditional dentures. With use of high quality denture teeth and acrylic characterization we achieve very good cosmetic results, but they often lack in function.

Implant Supported Dentures -Implants are not a new technique, but have improved greatly in recent years. The procedure involves surgically placing a fixture in the jaw (bone) to which dentures are attached. These offer a GREAT alternative for denture wearers. Depending on the situation, several methods and techniques can be used.

Rejuvenating Dentures– This is the type of denture we feel most comfortable offering to our patients. Although they are more expensive, the superior fit, function, and aesthetics are worth the additional cost. The results may even make people think that you’ve had facelift!
