Affordable Dentures & Implants

Affordable Dentures & Implants is a prominent and expansive network of dental practices across the United States, dedicated to offering comprehensive and affordable tooth replacement solutions. Founded in 1975 by Dr. George Edwards, Jr. and Dr. Donald Henson in Kinston, North Carolina, the organization's initial mission was to address the critical need for accessible and cost-effective dentures and tooth extractions. This foundational commitment to affordability and patient care remains central to their operations today, with over 400 affiliated practices in 42 states. The core services provided by Affordable Dentures & Implants include a full spectrum of denture options (full and partial, immediate, 3D printed), dental implants, and related procedures such as extractions, relines, and repairs. A key differentiator for many of their locations is the presence of an on-site dental lab, which allows for the efficient fabrication of dentures and in many cases, same-day service for certain procedures like immediate dentures, relines, and repairs. This on-site capability not only enhances convenience for patients, especially those traveling from a distance, but also contributes to the affordability of their services by eliminating the need for external lab markups. Affordable Dentures & Implants practices are individually owned and operated by licensed dentists, with business, marketing, and administrative support provided by Affordable Care, LLC, the largest dental support organization (DSO) in the U.S. focused on tooth replacement. This structure allows the dentists to concentrate primarily on patient care. Their philosophy is built on the belief that everyone deserves a healthy and confident smile. They emphasize providing compassionate and non-judgmental care, maintaining high clinical standards, and ensuring a safe environment for their patients. The "All-In-One Solution" is a notable offering, providing permanent implant-secured smiles that aim to restore bite force, confidence in speaking, and facial structure support. They also offer various financing options, including partnerships with CareCredit, Proceed Finance, and ONEderful Finance, to make treatments more manageable for different budgets. Beyond clinical services, Affordable Dentures & Implants is committed to community involvement through initiatives like "WE CARE: Go Ahead & Smile," providing free dental care to those in need, and donating time and talent to Mission of Mercy clinics. They also invest in ongoing training for their doctors and clinical teams in implant dentistry, often treating underserved patients through these programs.
