Luckily, dentures are an excellent solution to rebuild your smile and restore your confidence. Before committing to treatment, you likely want to know much you can expect to pay. Although they\u2019re generally affordable for most patients, the total price can vary significantly from patient to patient. That\u2019s because there are a few main factors that influence the cost of dentures in St. Augustine. Read along to learn about the top three contributing aspects and other things you should be aware of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Material<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The quality and type of material you choose for your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.saltrundental.com\/dentures.html\">dentures<\/a> will largely influence the final price. For example, cheaper dentures are certainly more affordable, but they\u2019re often made from brittle, pink plastic. The teeth are also made from the same material, except they\u2019re white. Although your upfront cost will be much lower than average, you\u2019ll need to have your dentures replaced much sooner than you anticipated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you invest in higher-quality dentures, you\u2019ll get more bang for your buck. They\u2019ll have an acrylic body with special artificial teeth that are made from either acrylic or porcelain. These dentures are much stronger and more natural-looking than the affordable ones. What\u2019s more, they can last anywhere from five to seven years with proper care and maintenance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Type of Denture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Did you know that there are different types of dentures? The right one for your smile depends on how many teeth you have lost. If you still have a few natural teeth left, you may want to opt for a partial denture because it\u2019s more affordable than a full one. It\u2019ll only replace your missing teeth and clasp onto the remaining pearly whites you still have. Of course, partials can also vary in quality and price. The cheaper ones are made from pink plastic and have pieces of bent wire sticking out that wrap around the teeth. These are thicker and heavier to prevent breaking. A higher-quality partial will have a thin metal framework with clasps that will fit your teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparatory Treatments<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At your consultation, your dentist will conduct an oral examination to see if there\u2019s anything that could affect the denture process. They\u2019ll check for signs of infection, tooth decay, and previous dental work. Based on their findings, your dentist will either suggest preparatory dental work (i.e., tooth extractions or periodontal therapy) or allow you to move forward with the treatment process. Keep in mind that these preliminary treatments will add to the total cost of dentures. Therefore, it\u2019s best to find out if you need work done beforehand so you can take that into account while determining the final price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The good news is that most dental insurance plans will offer some form of coverage for dentures. If you need help understanding your policy, contact your insurance provider or ask your dental team for assistance. They\u2019ll review the details of your plan and explain your financing options to help you get your smile back while making the least amount of expenses possible!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About the Practice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Salt Run Family Dentistry, we strive to make every visit a fun, comfortable, and relaxing experience.
