Most patients ask about the price of dentures in Pakistan before they book a consultation. The honest answer is: it depends on what type of denture you need, how many teeth are missing, and which materials are used. This guide breaks it all down clearly, using current 2026 rates.
What You Need to Know About Dentures?
Denture prices in Pakistan range from Rs. 8,000 per tooth for a partial denture to Rs. 200,000 for a complete upper or lower set with a cast metal plate. The material, design, and your bone and gum condition all affect the final cost. A proper clinical assessment is always needed before a final quote.
Types of Dentures & Their Prices in Pakistan
Pakistan’s dental market offers several denture types. The differences matter both clinically and financially.
Complete Dentures Price in Pakistan
A complete denture replaces all teeth in one jaw. It is used when no natural teeth remain in the upper or lower arch.
| Type | Price (Per Arch) |
|---|---|
| Complete Denture (Normal) | Rs. 140,000 |
| Complete Denture with Upper Mesh or Transparent or Double Shade | Rs. 160,000 |
| Complete Denture with Soft Base | Rs. 180,000 |
| Complete Denture with Upper Cast Plate | Rs. 200,000 |
The standard acrylic denture is the most common entry point. Mesh, double shade, and soft-base versions offer improved fit, aesthetics, or comfort depending on the patient’s jaw condition and preference.
Partial Dentures Price in Pakistan
A partial denture fills gaps left by missing teeth while the remaining natural teeth are still in place.
| Type | Price |
|---|---|
| Partial Denture (per tooth) | Rs. 8,000 to Rs. 10,000 |
| Flexible Partial Denture (1 unit) | Rs. 30,000 |
| Flexible Partial Denture (up to 3 units) | Rs. 60,000 |
| Flexible Partial Denture (4 to 6 units) | Rs. 75,000 |
| Flexible Partial Denture (7+ units) | Rs. 95,000 |
| Cast Partial Denture / CPD (1 unit) | Rs. 30,000 |
| Cast Partial Denture / CPD (up to 3 units) | Rs. 60,000 |
| Cast Partial Denture / CPD (4 to 6 units) | Rs. 75,000 |
| Cast Partial Denture / CPD (8+ units) | Rs. 95,000 |
Flexible partial dentures (such as Valplast) are popular for comfort and appearance because they lack visible metal clasps. Cast partial dentures use a metal framework for a more rigid, durable fit and are often preferred for long-span cases.
Relining Price in Pakistan
If an existing denture no longer fits properly due to changes in bone or gum volume, soft relining restores the fit without replacing the entire appliance.
| Procedure | Price |
|---|---|
| Soft Relining / Conditioning (per arch) | Rs. 30,000 |
Relining is significantly cheaper than replacement and extends the functional life of a well-made denture.
What Affects the Final Denture Price?
The price range exists because no two patients present the same clinical situation.
The number of teeth being replaced is the most direct cost driver for partial dentures. For complete dentures, the material and base type determine the tier. A standard acrylic base is the most affordable, while cast metal plates add durability and cost.
Bone and gum health also matter. Patients who have experienced significant ridge resorption after tooth loss may require additional procedures such as alveoloplasty, which is charged separately at Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 40,000 per arch. These are flagged at the consultation stage, not presented as surprises at billing.

Complete vs. Partial Dentures: Which One Do You Need?
Your dentist makes this determination based on how many teeth remain and their condition.
| Factor | Complete Denture | Partial Denture |
|---|---|---|
| Remaining natural teeth | None | One or more |
| Support method | Rests on gum ridge | Clasps onto remaining teeth |
| Best material options | Acrylic, mesh, cast plate, soft base | Acrylic, flexible (Valplast), cast metal (CPD) |
| Can be converted to implant-supported | Yes | Yes |
| Price range | Rs. 140,000 to Rs. 200,000 per arch | Rs. 8,000 per tooth (acrylic) to Rs. 95,000+ (flexible or CPD) |
Are Dentures the Right Choice?
Dentures are appropriate for patients who have lost multiple or all teeth and are either not candidates for implants or are not ready for implant surgery. They are removable, require daily cleaning, and need periodic adjustment as the jaw changes shape over time.
For patients who want a more permanent solution, dental implants or implant-supported overdentures offer better long-term stability. At The Dental Clinic, this comparison is always part of the initial consultation so patients can choose based on clinical need and budget, not sales pressure.
How Long Do Dentures Last?
A well-made complete denture typically lasts 5 to 7 years before it requires replacement due to natural changes in the jawbone and gum tissue. Partial dentures made with cast metal frameworks tend to last longer than acrylic-only designs.
Annual check-ups help identify early fit changes before they cause discomfort or damage to remaining teeth. Patients who avoid regular reviews often end up requiring premature relining or full replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a complete denture cost in Pakistan in 2026?
A standard complete denture costs Rs. 140,000 per arch at The Dental Clinic. Upgraded versions with soft bases, upper mesh, or cast metal plates range from Rs. 160,000 to Rs. 200,000 depending on the design.
What is the cheapest type of denture available?
The acrylic partial denture is the most affordable option, priced at Rs. 8,000 to Rs. 10,000 per tooth. For a single missing tooth, this is often the entry point. Costs rise with additional units and material upgrades.
What is a flexible denture and why does it cost more?
A flexible partial denture uses a thermoplastic resin instead of rigid acrylic. It has no visible metal clasps, adapts more comfortably to the gums, and is less likely to fracture on impact. The added material and fabrication complexity explain the higher cost compared to standard acrylic.
Is denture relining covered in the original price?
No. Relining is a separate procedure because it addresses changes in your jaw that occur after the denture is made. At Rs. 30,000 per arch, it is still significantly less expensive than full replacement and is clinically recommended when the denture becomes loose rather than waiting until it stops functioning.
Can I switch from dentures to dental implants later?
Yes. Many patients start with dentures and transition to implant-supported overdentures once their circumstances change. Implant-supported dentures clip onto implants placed in the jaw, providing significantly better retention and chewing force. Your dentist will assess whether your remaining bone volume supports this option.
How long does it take to get dentures made?
Depending on the type, dentures typically require 3 to 5 clinic visits over 2 to 4 weeks. The process involves impressions, bite registration, a try-in appointment, and final delivery. Adjustments after delivery are normal and expected.
