During your initial consultation, our experienced dentists will assess your oral health and discuss your specific needs and preferences for dentures. We take detailed impressions of your mouth to ensure your dentures fit perfectly.

When you need two snap-on dentures, one for the top and one for the bottom, you can expect to pay somewhere in the neighborhood of $6,000 for the procedure and the dentures themselves. This, of course, will be subject to the level of expertise of your dental surgeon, as well as your geographic location in the country. It might also be impacted by your specific circumstances, if any extra work is necessary to prepare your mouth. In any case, you may be able to get part of the cost defrayed by your dental insurance carrier, so you're not obliged to pay the entire amount out of pocket.
Not all dentists are experienced in installing snap-on dentures, so you should be careful when choosing a dentist who has both the knowledge and the experience to handle your situation adequately. One good way to do this is to check online reviews posted by other patients, because this will tell you whether or not they had a good experience, and whether they had any problems with the installed denture implants.
