  I&apos;m 64, a retired Realtor, and I finally decided it&apos;s time. I need dentures and/or implants. I saw an ad about &quot;dental implant grants&quot; to help the uninsured. I was given the name of a dentist in my area (Newport Beach, CA) and an appt. was set. I paid $50 for the initial visit and an hour later I was signed up for $70,000 &quot;4-in-1 implants&quot; ($30,000 paid for by grants, pressumably). I have excellent credit and was approved for financing... at 29.99%!!! &nbsp;I have no idea how long I have to pay it off, but I&apos;m pretty sure it&apos;s not over a 30 year term.<br>I couldn&apos;t sleep all week with worry. I didn&apos;t have any idea that implants were so expensive and didn&apos;t have any idea what regular denture pricing could be. Not until I saw this straight forward video from someone that wasn&apos;t trying to sell me anything. Now I know that removable dentures are the way to go for me. Thanks sweetheart, for sharing this very informative video!

  The trick is finding the denture artist in the field of dentures. &nbsp;Dentists I have paid a ton for dentures and received less quality dentures. &nbsp;At Swiss Dentures which I now go to they are about the same price as a dentist but you get much more detail and quality of dentures. &nbsp;The fits are perfect. &nbsp;The higher priced dentures are stronger and do last longer. &nbsp;Another issue is that over time your gums do lose some bone and it is important to get a new denture that fits properly to cut down on the lose of bone and it also makes your face appear more natural. &nbsp;I was young when I did get my first dentures and it was emotionally painful. &nbsp;I am almost 76 and I look young for this age. &nbsp;I always want the best dentures, nice glasses, and a good bed. &nbsp;The heck with the rest of the material things in life. &nbsp;Great video! &nbsp;Thank you for this post!

  Being a dentist in the US seems to be similar to owning a gold mine. Here in Europe you would pay 700-1000 for a full set of dentures including extractions. A click denture on implants would be around 1000 -1500 per arch , including implants

  Thanks so much for taking the time to explain all this. It is overwhelming (and scary). &nbsp;One wonders on how to &quot;shop&quot; for this. What with all the preliminary stuff they have to do just to give you a cost estimate. &nbsp;And some of it seems like it might not arise until after you are well into the process (like surgery to remove excess tissue or grinding bone down to level it). &nbsp;Wow!

  I appreciate the work you put into making this video and the information. Of course, you are much younger than I am. I had an oral surgeon quote me a price of $40,000. I told him I wasn&apos;t spending that kind of money, he said, well we have financing available. I told him, you misunderstood me, I have the money, but I will be damned if I&apos;m spending that much money at my age, on teeth. That was my last visit there. <br>So, then I go to a dental school. At first I started with students, then Covid-19 hit, and this whole process was taking way too long for me. So, I changed to faculty dentist at the same prominent dental school. My insurance covers $2500 per year. I&apos;m not completely done yet, I have to return for an adjustment, but I&apos;m almost done. I haven&apos;t received my final bill, but I&apos;m pretty sure my total cost is going to be around $2,000-$3000. &nbsp;I really like the looks of my dentures! They did an amazing job.I still have an appointment for adjustment. I&apos;m glad I changed to the facility dentist, it is much quicker, but it also cost a little more. I could have even moved up to private practice at the dental school, but the cost would have been the same as a regular dental specialist. With facility dentist, he&apos;s graduated, but studying a speciality, and then a supervisor will be there also. I have a friend that went to a private dentist, got full dentures, and paid $10,500, and imo, my dentures look a lot better. Luckily, I had a well know dental school fairly close to me. It may be worth checking out if it&apos;s an option for you. It&apos;s definitely less expensive, and very good quality work. The student dentist also all have a fully graduated dentist supervisor with them, but with the students, it just takes so long, that&apos;s why I changed. Thanks

  You can travel and return back to us several times, and still you will fix very cheap

  Check into Dental Center in Turkey. Also dental implants in Mexico/Canada are a lot cheaper than in the US. The amounts they want to charge here are absolutely ridiculous.

  Wow girl i had no idea about all this crap. I first saw your video sorry one of your videos a while back and i told my husband im watching all of hers cause you really had dedicated alot of time into informing complete strangers and your not even getting paid well maybe you are now lol. Anyway im using your advice taking theses steps to starting my journey with my soon to be extreme dental experience. I can tell you have dedicated so much time and i really really appreciate it so much. &nbsp;I have been so scared and you are really helping me! &nbsp;Ive noticed since your videos it seems like every girl needing dentures is on here trying to do the same thing and help others feel comfortable with the transition. Or themselves. which ever it helps. So thank you and i think you truly have done your civic duty!:) We appreciate YOU!!!

  Thank you for your honesty. No one was willing to give me any information.There is no way I can afford anything close to what you talked about I live on disability and the cost is beyond my means.
