Candidates for Dentures

Did you know that about one-quarter of adults over 65 are missing all their teeth? Dentures offer a reliable, natural-looking solution for this issue. You might be a good candidate if you:

  • Want to replace several or all of your teeth.
  • Do not smoke or use tobacco.
  • Have a healthy jawbone (we can assist with this).
  • Do not suffer from dry mouth.
  • Are ready to care for your dentures properly.
  • Plan to maintain regular dental check-ups.

How to Care for Your Dentures

To keep your dentures in top shape, follow these guidelines:

  • Remove dentures overnight to allow your mouth to rest.
  • Soak dentures in warm water or denture cleanser, avoiding hot water.
  • Store dentures in water when not in use to prevent warping.
  • Clean your gums with a toothbrush or a damp cloth.
  • Brush natural teeth if you have partial dentures.

Regular dental visits are essential for ensuring both your dentures and overall oral health.

Cost of Dentures in Boulder

In Boulder, the cost of full or partial dentures typically ranges from $900 to $3,500 or more, depending on your needs. Full-mouth dentures generally cost between $1,800 and $3,500, while a full set of implant-supported dentures can average around $30,000.

Factors Influencing Denture Costs:

  • Type of denture required
  • Any necessary dental extractions or preparations
  • X-rays and diagnostic imaging
  • Whether supportive implants are needed

Since every case is unique, it’s crucial to consult with a dentist and undergo an oral exam. This allows us to assess your specific needs and offer a tailored treatment plan. We’re happy to provide a detailed quote based on your individual situation.

Contact us today

to schedule an initial consultation & exam.

Your consultation will include an examination of everything from your teeth, gums and soft tissues to the shape and condition of your bite. Generally, we want to see how your whole mouth looks and functions. Before we plan your treatment we want to know everything about the health and aesthetic of your smile, and, most importantly, what you want to achieve so we can help you get there.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dental bridges can be used to restore a gap caused by 1 to 3 missing teeth. Any number of missing teeth can be restored using dental implants. Dental implants typically have a higher initial investment cost and certain health requirements to qualify as a candidate for treatment.

With routine care and maintenance, your dentures should be good for 5 – 10 years. Aside from wear and tear on the dentures themselves, your mouth also changes over time and you may eventually decide it’s best to get fitted for a completely new set.

If your dentures are uncomfortable or don’t fit properly, schedule an appointment with your dentist. They can adjust the fit or address any issues to ensure your dentures are comfortable and functional.

Yes, you can wear your dentures to bed but its recommended that you don’t. You should get into the habit of taking them out at night to soak so you can clean your mouth, gums and remaining natural teeth and then give your gums and jaw a chance to rest.

Your top dentures should suction to your gums. Your bottom dentures float above your gums but stay in place easily. Partial dentures should stay in line with natural teeth without moving very much. Implant-supported dentures snap in place and remain stable. If you’re questioning the fit of your denture, you are welcome to book an appointment so we can check your fit and make adjustments as needed.

After you’ve had some time to adjust to your dentures you should be able to eat almost anything. There are some foods that are hard on your dentures or that might cause rubbing or irritation. Foods that are hard or sticky like caramel, carrot sticks or a tough cut of meat or foods that contain little particles like popcorn or seeded crackers might present some challenge and should perhaps be enjoyed only as an occasional treat.

I have only visited two dental offices in the US but this is the best so far. Dr. Altdorfer is very professional, explain each step to me very clearly and finished the procedure swiftly. Today I was there shaping a tooth for a crown. The entire session is painless and as smooth as it can be. Attiya is also very nice. She explained things in detail (about what to be mindful of..etc) before I asked, including things that I needed asking in my previous dentist. I am that kind of people who worries a bit so I still have a question or two. I am glad that they are very patient to answer them. My prior cleaning session with Missy was also great. She did the cleaning very gently and carefully, which I appreciate. Also very nice, calm and clear in communication. 10/10. I think they had a substitute hygienist for a day, name is Bruce as I recall, he also went above and beyond. After he inspected my gum, he gave me a lot of advice and recommendations on how to take better care of my mouth. And he did it in a thoughtful manner. That's where I feel like he genuinely care about his patient. Great place in general. Update: Just went back today to finish my treatment. Same good practice. I have a crown fitting/sitting and 3 fillings, all done in one hour and with no pain. Dr. Altdorfer and Attiya are superb. They told me what they are doing and I should do in each step. Good communication too. What a stark contrast with my previous place (outside of colorado)!

Honestly one of the best experiences I have had at the dentist. The staff is so genuinely nice and helpful. I have a huge fear of needles and the doctor was so patient and kind. Made the injections as painless and comfortable as possible. Both appointments I’ve made I have been contacted by the office to see if I wanted to come in at an earlier date and when I’m there I’m taken to the back very fast. I have already recommended so many friends to this office and if you’re looking for a dentist I HIGHLY recommend going here. 6/5 stars. Thank you to the staff at experience dental!!!
