About this procedure
Dentures are removable prosthetic replacements for missing teeth. Full dentures replace all teeth in an arch when no natural teeth remain. Partial dentures replace some teeth while preserving the remaining natural teeth, using clasps or precision attachments. Cost varies significantly by type, materials (acrylic, flexible nylon, premium prosthetic teeth), and provider expertise.
Price factors
What affects the cost?
- Material quality (economy vs. premium acrylic or porcelain teeth)
- Whether extractions are needed first
- Number of fitting appointments
- Immediate dentures vs. conventional
- Implant-supported vs. traditional

Quote checker
What should your quote include?
Different offices bundle costs differently. Here's what a complete quote typically covers — and what's often left out.

- Upper and lower denture sets
- All fitting and adjustment appointments
- Reline after healing if included
- Ask about warranty on the dentures
Often billed separately — ask before you agree
- Verify whether extractions and healing visits are bundled
Health stakes
What happens if you delay treatment?
Restorative procedures are usually recommended once a tooth has lost too much structure to remain stable on its own. Waiting rarely makes the situation simpler.
- Bone resorption in the jaw accelerates once teeth are lost
- Remaining facial structure changes, making fitting more difficult later
- Chewing difficulty affects nutrition and digestion
- Speaking impairment if treatment is delayed further

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between full and partial dentures?
Full dentures replace an entire arch of teeth (upper or lower); they're used when all teeth are gone. Partial dentures replace some teeth, with the remaining natural teeth providing anchor support. Full dentures cost $1,500-$3,500 per arch; partials cost $1,200-$3,000 per arch. Implant-supported dentures provide better stability but cost significantly more ($15,000-$30,000).
Does insurance cover full dentures?
Most PPO plans cover dentures at 50% after the deductible, subject to the annual maximum. Plans typically have a frequency limit — often a new denture every 5–7 years. Implant-supported dentures may have separate coverage rules for the implant components.
How long do full dentures last?
A well-made denture typically lasts 5–7 years before the teeth wear, the acrylic discolors, or the fit deteriorates from gum changes. Relines are often needed every 1–2 years. Implant-supported dentures last longer because they don't depend on changing gum shape for fit.
