Advantages of Dentures
If you are missing most or all of your teeth and considering what treatment option is right for you, there are several unique advantages to dentures compared to other treatment options to consider, which include the following:
- Health: Facial muscles and structures receive essential support from dentures.
- Improved function: One of the biggest benefits to getting custom dentures is the improved functionality in being able to chew foods. Custom fit dentures will also improve your speech.
- Improved comfort: Although dentures were originally made to return patients ability to chew, modern dentures are now customized to the patient’s mouth, which has significantly improved comfort and reduced slipping.
- Affordability: Dentures are the most cost-affordable treatment method for missing teeth.
- Fast results: Unlike dental implants, which can take several months to complete, dentures provide results much faster and require fewer clinical visits.
- Aesthetics: Our top-quality dentures are designed to give you a natural looking smile.

Denture Cleaning and Oral Hygiene
It is important to take good care of your dentures to ensure they look their best, continue to be comfortable, and are clean. This includes removing your dentures after eating, cleaning your cheeks, tongue, and the roof of your mouth whenever your dentures are removed, brushing your dentures daily, and soaking your dentures overnight.
In addition to proper maintenance of your dentures, the most important step you can take to preserve your oral health and continue enjoying comfortable dentures is to schedule a regular examination with us at least twice a year, or with greater regularity if you are at an increased risk of developing oral health issues. These visits ensure that Dr. Forbes can evaluate your oral health and identify issues before they develop into something worse. They also allow us to perform one of our three types of dental exams: a limited exam (for specific concerns), comprehensive exam (thorough examination of your overall oral health followed by treatment recommendations), or our signature exam (which includes the comprehensive exam as well as a full head and neck exam and ideas for a Digital Smile Design).
Cost of Dentures
Several factors will determine the total cost of dentures, such as whether preliminary procedures such as tooth extraction are necessary prior to fitting you for dentures and whether dentures are covered (and if so, how much) by your dental insurance plan. Prior to scheduling any procedure, we will discuss the anticipated costs, verify your benefits (if applicable) to determine out-of-pocket costs, and answer any questions you may have about billing.
If you are not covered under a dental insurance plan, or if you are simply interested in saving money, consider joining the Capital Dental Design Membership Plan. Although we make every effort to keep our services affordable for all patients, joining our membership plan allows us to save you even more money by covering the cost of preventive care such as cleanings, exams, and routine x-rays. We also offer discounts of 10-15% on other dental services offered at our clinic. To learn more about our membership plan, payment options, or anticipated costs, contact our office today!
