I want a cosmetic denture like in 10 years younger
Q. Over the last 10 months or so, I have lost all but 3 of my bottom teeth. (Im 39). The denture I have been supplied with not only looks awful, as the teeth are smaller and shorter than my own, but is very uncomfortable, loose and ill fitting. I asked my dentist about a cosmetic denture, meaning the type you see on tv shows such as 10 yrs younger. He quoted a cost of approx £300, which I find hard to believe. Is he thinking of the same thing as me, or would I need to see a specialist to get what I am looking for? Also what sort of cost would I be looking at realistically?
A. A well made private denture can range from £800 upwards. The costs varies depending on the experience , location Etc of the dentist. The other treatment that you should seriously consider is an implant retained denture which would solve your instability and discomfort problems. These give an anchor for the denture to attach to dramatically improving the end result , even of very well made standard dentures.
Kindest regards
