If in Florence North Carolina there is a dental clinic called Sexton dental clinic http://www.sextondental.net/page3.html which make dentures (full) for 180 dollars and they have also customized much cheaper than the normal dentists. The extractions are 18 dollars pr tooth if you shall have dentures included in the treatment. I have talked to them and they are very nice people and do a good job . That I have heard from people who have been there. If you are further away there the affordable denture group. You can go in and search for a location. They are spread over the whole of USA. If they are too expensive you can try the dental schools. I know that some charge in relation to income so it can be very advantagous. I wish you good luck > I am going to need upper and lower dentures, am on Soc. Sec > disibility, and Soc.

Ho > do I go about finding a low cost provider of qualtiy dentures > > Dick Dick I am not a dentist, but I think going to a quality dentist with goo communication skills, one that will listen to your concerns, one tha will provide excellent follow-up service and one that is known t provide quality work _is_worth_the_money_ in this case Beng able to chew properly, eat comfortably, and having a decent smil are integral to your health and well-being. Often dentures require few adjustments once placed. It is my understanding that the ca tissue shrink a bit after the initial fitting, so you watn to have dentist that you can communicate with and one that will not blow yo off if you need additional adjustments $2400 is a lot of money, and you can shop around and try to find lower price, but as the old saying goes... one usually gets what on pays for Keep in mind also, you may be able to negoitiate a payment plan tha fits your budget. You can check and see if there are any "sliding fee" clinics in you area, or check out the nearest dental school. I am sure the dentis that quoted $2400 can refer you to one of these if you ask him/her I do believe all of these options can provide you with quality servic & product, provided you are paired with a dentist with whom you ar comfortable (i.e. comfortable with his/her communication style demeanor, etc.). jmho Best of luck to you Nor -- Nor |
