Case Description
I am 70 years of age and my dental health is very good. I go to dentist twice per year for past 10 years. I have a lower partial containing 10 teeth. The partial is over 15 years old and quite loose and am worried if the wire holders are bent to tighten the plate it will break. My dentist determines I need a replacement,,,implants, partial, etc. Cost seems very high. Please help me with cost estimate.

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

The fee for the consultation is $50.00 which would be applied to any service that was provided due to that consultation.We look forward to hearing from you.LaVerne T KindPatient CoordinatorFamily Smiles at "The Glen"
15 years is a great life for your partial and yes, most likely time to have a new one made. We want to make sure we keep you eating comfortably until you are 100! We would be more than happy to see you for a no charge consultation to assess your current partial and give you an exact cost of a new one. A new partial can cost about $3500.00 but we can do monthly payments all the way up to 12 months. The cost could then be under $300.00 a month! Let us know if you are interested in hearing more about CareCredit. Contact Diana, our scheduling coordinator, today to set up your consult. We are here M-Th and even until 8pm on Thursdays and early as 7:30am everday. Look forward to meeting you soon!
