Affordable Dentures & Implants

Affordable Dentures & Implants is a prominent dental care network in the United States, specializing in comprehensive tooth replacement solutions. The company's origins trace back to 1975 when Dr. George Edwards, Jr., and Dr. Donald Henson opened the first practice in Kinston, North Carolina. Their motivation was to address the growing need for affordable dentures and extractions, as they felt uncomfortable turning patients away due to high costs. This founding principle of accessibility and affordability remains central to the brand's mission: "To provide a smile for every budget, delivered with compassion, dignity and respect." Today, Affordable Dentures & Implants has grown into the largest network of dental providers in the U.S. exclusively focused on tooth replacement. They operate over 425 affiliated practices across 42 states, serving millions of patients annually. These practices offer a wide range of services, including full and partial dentures, various types of dental implants (such as full mouth implants, snap-on dentures, and single tooth implants), extractions, and other general dental procedures related to tooth replacement. A key differentiator for Affordable Dentures & Implants practices is the presence of an on-site dental laboratory at almost every location. This unique feature allows for the convenient provision of same-day services for many procedures, which is a significant advantage for patients, especially those who may travel from a distance. The practices are committed to utilizing state-of-the-art technology, including 3-D cone beam imaging, to ensure high-quality care. Affordable Dentures & Implants aims to make dental care accessible through various offerings, including multiple denture styles at different price points (from economy to premium), new financing options, and a "Best Price Guarantee" from each practice. The brand emphasizes patient satisfaction and compassionate, non-judgmental care. They are supported by Affordable Care, the largest dental support organization in the United States focused on tooth replacement services. Beyond patient care, the organization also engages in community outreach and provides opportunities for affiliated dentists to have 100% ownership and equity in their practices, alongside comprehensive business support.
