Dental replacement options range from traditional dentures to advanced dental implants, each offering distinct advantages for restoring missing teeth. From affordable dentures at $566 per arch to permanent implant solutions, Local Start Dental provides comprehensive tooth replacement for Durham, NC patients.

Dentures and bone loss are inextricably connected—traditional dentures accelerate jawbone deterioration over time. Without tooth roots to stimulate bone tissue, the body reabsorbs the jawbone, changing facial structure and compromising denture fit. Dental implants prevent this progressive bone loss.

Overdentures offer Durham, NC patients a stable, affordable alternative to traditional dentures. These snap-on dentures attach to 2-4 dental implants, eliminating slipping and sliding while preserving bone health.

Implant supported overdentures combine the stability of dental implants with removable dentures for a secure, natural-feeling smile.
