Affordable
Dentures & Implants is a prominent and expansive network of dental practices across the United States, with over 400 locations in 42 states. Established in 1975 by Dr. George Edwards, Jr., and Dr. Donald Henson in Kinston, North Carolina, the brand was founded on the principle of making essential
dental care, specifically dentures and extractions, affordable and accessible to a wider patient base. Over the years, their services have expanded to include comprehensive
Tooth Replacement solutions, most notably
Dental Implants, leading to the current brand name, "Affordable Dentures & Implants."
A key distinguishing feature of Affordable Dentures & Implants is their commitment to affordability and efficiency. Almost every affiliated practice boasts an on-site dental laboratory, which significantly reduces costs by eliminating third-party markups and often allows for same-day service for dentures. This in-house capability also enables quicker turnaround times for custom-made dentures and other prosthetic devices.
Their service offerings are diverse, ranging from various types of full and
Partial Dentures (Economy, EconomyPlus, Premium, UltimateFit) to a wide array of dental implant solutions. Beyond tooth replacement, some locations also offer general dentistry, oral hygiene, emergency dental services,
crowns, and even sedation dentistry, aiming to provide comprehensive oral care.
Affordable Dentures & Implants operates with a patient-centric mission: "To provide a smile for every budget, delivered with compassion, dignity and respect." They strive to create a welcoming and comfortable environment, with a focus on clear communication and customized treatment plans. The company emphasizes customer satisfaction and aims to ensure each patient is 100% satisfied with their dental care. They accept most major dental insurance plans and offer various financing options to further enhance affordability.
The network is supported by Affordable Care, LLC, a leading dental support organization that handles non-clinical aspects such as marketing, IT, supply chain management, and administrative support, allowing dentists to concentrate on patient treatment. Affordable Dentures & Implants also engages in community outreach through initiatives like "WE CARE: Go Ahead & Smile" and collaborations with Mission of Mercy clinics, providing free dental care to those in need.
