Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / September 2005cost of full dentures?
A friend of mine has very bad teeth and wants to have them all pulled and get dentures. He was examined by a dentist awhile ago who said that none of his teeth are worth saving. About how much will this cost, to have all his teeth extracted, and get the dentures? I know it's not possible to give an exact estimate with so little information, I'm just looking for a ballpark figure. Probably with the least expensive dentures possible, but that are functional, look OK, etc. Thanks! >A friend of mine has very bad teeth and wants to have them all pulled >and get dentures.

One is needed for the upper and another one for the lower. Many dental insurances are in this range. One DentalTown dude charges $10,000 for denture(s). WoW! Joel > How many extractions are required?

First check if Blue Cross & Blue Shield offers BLUE DENTAL CARE in your state. It is like $14 a month and you get free xrays and such. According to my fee book dentures are $375 each + LAB. Also try Ameriplan. >There are many dental discount plans out there. First check if Blue >Cross & Blue Shield offers BLUE DENTAL CARE in your state.

Sad to say, these plans thrive on keep dentists under control as to fees ......... Joel >There are many dental discount plans out there.

There is no such thing as a 'free lunch'. -- W_B Take out the G'RBAGE wubbabubbazG@RBAGEyahoo.com >A friend of mine has very bad teeth and wants to have them all pulled >and get dentures.
