What Affects the Cost of Partial Dentures?

  • Material: acrylic is usually the least expensive, while flexible and cast metal partials cost more.
  • Number of teeth: replacing more teeth takes more material and lab time.
  • Where you get it: dental offices include exams, X-rays, fittings, and overhead. Direct-to-consumer labs like FixUrSmile skip the office visit.
  • Extractions or other work: if you need teeth removed or treated first, that adds to the total.
  • Insurance: many dental plans cover part of the cost of partial dentures, often after a waiting period.

How Much Is a Flexible Partial Denture?

At a dental office, flexible partials typically run $900 to $2,000. FixUrSmile’s custom flexible partial is $315 for 1–3 teeth and $399 for up to 6 teeth. Read more in our flexible dentures guide.

How Much Is a Flipper Tooth?

A single flipper tooth usually costs $300 to $500 at a dental office, and flippers for several teeth can top $1,000. FixUrSmile’s acrylic partial starts at $245. See our full flipper tooth guide.

Why Are Online Partial Dentures Less Expensive?

When you order from FixUrSmile, you’re buying directly from a US dental lab. You take your impressions at home, a licensed dentist reviews your case, and our certified technicians build your partial. You don’t pay for in-office appointments, and pricing is listed upfront. Online partials aren’t right for everyone, so if you have pain, loose teeth, gum disease, or teeth that need treatment, see a dentist first.
