These restorations have been around for an incredibly long time and give you back some of your bite power as well as a full, beautiful beam. If you\u2019re considering getting dentures, you may be wondering how much money you can expect to spend on them. There are a few things that impact the cost of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.holcombdds.com\/dentures.html\">dentures<\/a>, so read on to learn what they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #1: What They\u2019re Made Out Of<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentures can be made of several different materials, including porcelain, resin, acrylic, nylon, or metal. The type of materials used to make your dentures as well as their quality will largely influence the price. It\u2019s important to keep in mind that there is some give and take. Dentures made from cheaper materials are more affordable, but they are often made from brittle plastic. So, even though your upfront costs will be lower, you\u2019ll have to pay for a replacement sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #2: Type of Dentures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are several types of dentures, including partials, full dentures, and implant dentures. If you still have at least a few of your natural teeth left, you will need partial dentures. Since they replace fewer teeth, partials are more affordable. Since full dentures need to replace all your teeth, they cost more. Implant dentures require oral surgery, so that\u2019s an additional cost factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #3: Preparatory Treatments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The kinds of treatments you need to get to prepare for your dentures will also affect how much the total cost comes out to. If you have oral health issues like cavities, gum disease, or mouth infections, these will need to be treated before you proceed. Your dental team will work with you to determine the total cost of treatment once these procedures are added in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factor #4: Insurance Coverage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether or not you have dental insurance will have a big impact on the cost of dentures. Since this is considered a restorative treatment, you can expect to get at least partial coverage. Many dentists also offer alternative payment options for people who don\u2019t have dental insurance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you can see, there are a variety of things that will impact the total cost of dentures.&nbsp; If you\u2019re confused about how much you can expect to pay, your dentist and their team will help you break down the treatments you need to ensure that you\u2019re comfortable with the cost. Before you know it, your smile will be complete once again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Joshua Holcomb loves what he does, and it shows in the exceptional care that he offers his patients.
