How much do lower dentures cost?

Q. how much for a lower set of dentures? I have had false teeth for a long time, every time I go to dentists they never make my lower set right. And I need a dentist who will do this and the cost of it.

 

A. It is likely that the problem you have is due to a very narrow lower ridge that cannot support a denture. In these cases the denture moves excessively making eating and speaking extremely difficult. Thankfully there is a solution using dental implants. These are titanium “roots” placed in the lower jaw that the denture can be fixed onto.

Costs can vary depending on how many implants are required and the type of attachments used. A typical cost is in the region of £3000 to £4000 but a proper estimate can only be given following examination of your mouth.
