Frequently Asked Questtions
The only way to answer that question is “it depends”. There are a lot of factors that come into play when calculating the fee for your particular case. And without seeing you (and your mouth) in person, its impossible to quote you a fair fee. We recommend you take advantage of our FREE, no obligation consultation so that we can discuss your options and the costs of each option.

What if need extractions before I get dentures?
We are a general dentistry practice. We can extract your teeth and fabricate your dentures.I want to keep my teeth and fix the ones I have. Can you help me with that?
Yes, we can. See “Other Services” on this site.
There can be some initial discomfort with a new set of denture, just like with a new pair of shoes. We can adjust the major sore spots fairly easily. There’s no charge for the post op insertion adjustments.
Will I need to use Fixodent (denture adhesive)?
That’s hard to answer without knowing your particular situation and mouth anatomy. Generally, the more bone you have remaining, the less chance you will need an adhesive. Upper dentures generally have a lot of retention but lower dentures can be a little tricky. Take advantage of our FREE, initial consultation so we can take a look and give you a better answer.Will I be able to chew anything I want with my dentures?
Anything? Probably not. And anyone who guarantees you can is not being totally honest. Dentures are the best solution we have to replace missing teeth, but they are not a perfect solution. Implant retained dentures would give you the best chance of being able to chew anything you want.I’ve been told I don’t have enough bone for a denture. Can you help?
Yes, we can. Call our office for a FREE initial consultation so we can take a look.Will I get to pick the color of my new teeth?
