I have no dental insurance - being on Medicare - and my teeth are
rapidly deterioting... Just don't have the money to invest in fancy
new techniques, crowns, bridges, etc.  when I can't afford them and
don't know how much longer I will live anyway...
But what would dentures cost?

Yes sir, those crowns and bridges are real new techniques.  Been
around since what, about 1910?

How many remaining teeth ?

Upper ?

Lower ?

General condition of lower teeth ?

Depends on whether you go to a 'denture clinic', a general dentist,
or a prosthodontist.  Also depends on how many teeth are extracted,
local, sedation, or general anesthesia, and your geographical location.

Some places in the Midwest will extract teeth for $80 each and
make a cheap plate for $495.
