What do we mean by affordable dentures?

Saberton aims to provide affordable denture care to the residents of Southern Ontario.

Being able to smile and eat properly are everyday pleasures that we feel everyone should enjoy.

By providing our patients with the option of choosing which treatment plan works best for their budget, our hope is that no one will be unhappy with their denture. This approach also includes offering free consultations to all patients. Free consultations give us the opportunity to discuss with each patient, with as little worry as possible, which treatment plan works for each individual’s unique situation, and at a price that they can afford.

The good news is that there is definitely a push to include public dental care in Ontario for those most in need, particularly low income seniors. The Ontario Seniors Dental Care Program (ODSP) allows for certain seniors to receive basic dental care needs such as extractions, checkups and x-rays. Dentures are partially covered but a lot depends on the individual public health unit across the province.

The bad news is that coverage is very limited. The restrictions are as follows:

1. Must be 65 years of age or older
2. Must be a resident of Ontario
3. Must have an annual individual income less than $22,200 or $37,100 per couple.
4. Must have no other dental benefits including Ontario Works, Ontario Disability, or private insurance.

Because of these limitations we offer payment plans to support patients that are not eligible for OSDP:

Payment Plans:

Our free consultation appointment is the starting point in determining what dental treatment is necessary, as well as all potential costs involved in getting new dentures. Once this is determined, an estimate is created that outlines the total amount of the payment plan. After credit approval, we are free to start the denture making process and payments are made based on the agreed upon payment plan.

How long does it take to get the payment plan?

It usually only takes about 1 week after the denture treatment plan has been developed and the estimate has been submitted for credit approval before we’re able to start with the new dentures. However, every financial situation is unique and we work to help get everyone their payment plan loan in place as quickly as possible so that they can get their new dentures in a timely manner.

What payment plans are available for dentures?

Payment plans are available for all denture services including complete dentures, partial dentures, as well as dentures on implants, subject to credit approval. The free consultation appointment is the best time to discuss how payment plans can help pay for your new dentures.
