Dentures

Losing teeth changes more than your smile. It changes how you eat, how you speak, and often how confident you feel in everyday situations. Dentures have been solving this problem for generations — and the options available today are considerably better than what most people picture when they hear the word.

The dentures patients remember from their grandparents’ generation — loose, uncomfortable, obviously artificial — are not what denture dentistry looks like now. Modern materials fit better, look more natural, and for patients who choose implant-supported options, feel closer to real teeth than anything previously possible.

At Millennium Aesthetics, every case starts with understanding what the patient actually needs: how many teeth are missing, what the bone structure looks like, what the budget is, and what daily life with the restoration should feel like. The right denture for one patient isn’t the right denture for another.

Full dentures replace an entire arch — upper, lower, or both — when all natural teeth are gone. Custom dentures at Millennium Aesthetics are fabricated from impressions of your mouth, shaped to fit your gum tissue, and designed to match your facial proportions. A well-made full denture stays in place during normal use, looks natural, and restores basic chewing function.

When some natural teeth remain, a partial denture fills the gaps without affecting the healthy teeth around them. It clips onto existing teeth using small clasps and is removed for cleaning. Partials are a practical, cost-effective solution when implants aren’t indicated or the patient prefers a removable option.

Implant-supported dentures attach to titanium posts placed in the jawbone rather than resting on the gum tissue. The result is a restoration that stays in place, restores more chewing force, and slows the bone loss that conventional dentures can’t address. For patients who want more stability and a longer-lasting solution, this is the option worth serious consideration. Full details are on our Implant Dentures page.

Conventional dentures rest on the gum surface and rely on suction and fit to stay in place. They work — but gum tissue changes shape over time, which means fit changes too. Relines and adjustments become part of the long-term picture.

Implant-supported dentures are anchored to the bone. They don’t shift, don’t require adhesive, and because implants stimulate the jaw the way natural roots do, they slow the bone resorption that makes conventional dentures fit worse and worse over the years.

The tradeoff is cost and the surgical component. Not every patient is ready for implants — medically, financially, or in terms of available bone. Dentures & dental services at Millennium Aesthetics cover both paths, and the consultation is where the right choice gets made.

Prices for dentures vary significantly by type:

• Conventional full dentures — typically $1,500–$3,500 per arch.
• Partial dentures — $1,000–$2,500 depending on the number of teeth and framework material.
• Implant-supported dentures — $3,500–$25,000+ depending on the number of implants and whether the restoration is removable or fixed.

These ranges reflect real variation in materials, complexity, and lab work. The only accurate number for your case comes from a consultation and diagnostic imaging.

Most dental insurance plans cover a portion of conventional denture costs. Implant components are less commonly covered. At Millennium Aesthetics, we help patients understand their coverage before committing to a treatment plan. Financing with monthly payment options is available for patients who prefer to spread the cost.

• Consultation — a full assessment of your oral health, bone structure, and existing teeth. Digital X-rays and, where indicated, CT imaging. Discussion of all realistic options with honest tradeoffs.
• Impressions — precise molds of your mouth form the foundation for custom fit dentures that work with your specific anatomy, not a generic template.
• Fitting — a trial fitting checks bite, fit, and appearance before the final restoration is completed. Adjustments are made at this stage, not after.
• Final delivery — the finished denture is seated, checked, and adjusted until it’s right. You leave knowing how to care for it and with a follow-up scheduled.

As a local dentist for dentures in Fort Lauderdale, we also offer same day denture service for select cases — patients who need a temporary restoration immediately following extractions while a permanent denture is being fabricated.

• Custom-fitted for comfort — every restoration built from precise impressions of your mouth, not off-the-shelf components.
• Natural appearance — shade, shape, and proportion matched to your face; restorations that look like teeth, not prosthetics.
• Implant options available — full range of dentures service from conventional to fully fixed implant-supported arches.
