Dentures can be expensive without insurance in Namibia. A set of dentures that includes a set of chunky teeth and a set of false teeth can cost around $1,000 without insurance. If you have comprehensive dental insurance, the price may be lower, but it’s still likely to be more expensive than getting dentures through the government-run health system.
What are the different dentures?
There are a couple of different dentures. The most common type is a full denture, which is a replacement for all of your teeth. A partial denture is a replacement for some of your teeth. A bridge is a temporary fix for a missing tooth.
- Complete dentures- These are also called full or conventional dentures. As the name suggests, these are a complete set of dentures. These dentures are the best for someone missing all of their teeth.
- Implant-retained dentures- This is a type of complete denture, also referred to as snap-ins. These are best for those missing every single one of their teeth and need extra support so that the dentures do not move.
