Denture costs, coverage and care

Dentures: types, costs and what coverage pays

Natural Look Dentures collects the denture prices providers publish, what every state’s Medicaid program covers, and the Medicare rules, each figure with a source and a date — alongside a practice finder built on the federal NPI register, city guides, and more than 170 articles on dental care. We are a publication, not a practice: nothing here is a substitute for an examination by a dentist, and we do not arrange, quote or recommend treatment or individual clinics.

The $395 denture you saw advertised is the replacement price for one arch, before extractions.

The types of dentures

What each one is and what it costs at the providers’ own published prices, before extractions.

  • Complete dentures

    A full arch, upper or lower: $395 to $2,391 per arch at published chain prices, before extractions.

  • Partial dentures

    Replace some teeth and keep the rest: published chain partials run $1,167 to $1,993 per arch.

  • Immediate dentures

    Fitted the same day your teeth come out; the bill is the denture plus the extractions.

  • Implant-supported dentures

    Snap-on or fixed, anchored on implants: $7,534 to $13,500 per arch, published average to range.

Cost & coverage

The published prices and the program rules, each read from its source on a stated date. No one can pay to change a figure.

Find a practice

Every denture specialist, implant surgeon and registered dental practice the federal NPI register lists in the states we cover. A register, not a ranking: alphabetical, dated, and no one can pay to appear.
