If you only have one or two missing teeth that aren’t immediately noticeable. You might be asking, “Do I really need to fix this?”
The answer is yes.
A missing tooth is not only aesthetically undesirable but it can make it more difficult to chew food.
A flipper tooth can serve as a great alternative to more extensive partial dentures when your missing tooth isn’t noticeable.
A flipper tooth is a form of removable partial dentures that sit in the gap of a single missing tooth. While it’s classified as a partial denture, most partial dentures on the market are meant to replace more than one tooth. A flipper tooth is smaller, less expensive and less cumbersome than more extensive partial dentures.
They often do not contain metal, connecting to surrounding teeth by a mold that matches the surrounding gum tissue. This can allow for significantly thinner amounts of acrylic used in the construction, which adds comfort. However, because less material is used, it can also be more fragile.
Cleaning and maintaining your flipper teeth should be done alongside normal dental cleaning and care. Each night, you should:
After cleaning your tooth, keep it moist at night by using a denture cleaning soak.
Wine, coffee, and similar liquids can stain your flipper tooth – you may want to avoid these while wearing your partial dentures.
It’s also important to avoid keeping your flipper tooth in hot environments, as these can warp your tooth and expedite your need for a replacement.
With proper maintenance, your flipper tooth can last years with an excellent fit.
The cost of a flipper tooth can vary widely depending on several factors, including the materials used, the geographic location of the dental practice, and the specific dentist or prosthodontist you visit. In general, flipper tooth is more affordable than other tooth replacement options like dental implants or fixed bridges.
With that said, the cost still ranges from around $600 to $1,000.
But when you buy direct from a trusted warehouse, they can cost as little as $400.

My Bellaveneers are absolutely fantastic! It's been a long time since I have been able to smile with confidence. I have received a lot of compliments on them, and I absolutely love them. My only complaint would be that I do wish that someone in customer service would answer the phone when I call rather than having to wait a day or two for a response.
This was a very good fit and color for my daughter. You could not tell this from her other teeth, We are very pleased with this.
I'm very much pleased as, this is my second experience with your company. Cheryl Harris
This is AMAZING. It's so much smaller than the one I got from the dentist. I can talk with it in!
I can't remember how long its been since I've smiled with my teeth showing . Thank you
Dentures arrived today and fit perfectly. Timely customer service response with questions. Still getting used to my new Dentures but quality and fit beyond expectations.
Dental Lab Direct made a partial for me. It is perfect. My other option was bone grafts and an implant IF the grafts worked at a cost if well over 8000.00
Couldn't even imagine paying that much.
Dental Lab’s partial was affordable and a perfect answer for me.
It was worth the wait. It took 3 weeks for it to arrive after I sent the impressions in but it was worth it.
Thank you for everything!!!!
My tooth-grinding at night has pretty much gone away now. My wife thanks you ;)
This is my second purchase with DLD. I'm a lifelong customer.
I was missing all 4 front teeth and my friend used this company so I thought let's give DLD a try. Got my 4 front teeth and confidence back, thanks!!
5 stars. If I could give 10 then I would.
