Don't be fooled by their name; this is NOT a dental service, it's an assembly line! They do so many, YOU ARE JUST A NUMBER. They DON'T LISTEN, DON'T CARE, & they will LIE to protect themselves at any cost. I started the process of "snap on" dentures in Oct of 2022 and still have no teeth! I was told the same thing you will be told: that you will leave with teeth each time which are attractive ("I don't want you walking out with teeth that you don't like," and, "I would be embarrassed if you walked out of here with ugly teeth…what would people think of me if I did that?") AND functional. That is where the lie starts! After my procedure, I was given upper teeth SO BIG that I literally could not close my mouth around them; the bottom teeth they don't bother with because they won't fit you. I complained the 1st day, yet I kept having to go back for liners that DID NOT HELP. I complained to the dentist & to every tech that worked on me & NONE of them LISTENED. Finally, I told them they must remake. I saw the supervisor at the lab; he took 1 look at me and said, "those are big teeth that you have." He told me he would personally work on them the next day. When I went back the next day, he wasn't working! So, I sent pics of how my teeth looked in an email for the lab to work on. When they came back with my teeth at 4:30 on a Friday, they were still buck even though they were somewhat better. I told the young lab tech & Nancy, the dental tech, they were buck & I could see the startled, scared look of the lab guy. He probably couldn't have another remake. They wanted me to initial a paper to "sign off" on the teeth. They provided a small hand mirror for me to see in a room that had a dim light. They wouldn't take me to a better lit room, nor would they give me another mirror. They told me they looked too big because my gums were swollen, & they would fit in my mouth once the swelling went down. When that didn't work, I was told that if I didn't take them, I would have to leave without ANY teeth (not what they said in the consultations). They considered THAT to be my "one reset" & told me I would have to pay an additional $500 to get them redone. That would not have to be my one reset if they did it right to begin with, not wasting all their time & mine with the 1st set they made. I have never been under such duress; they celebrated as they tried to hide their "high five," with Nancy patting the young lab tech on the back as relief came over his face. I cannot tell you how EMBARRASSED I stay with these buck teeth; people always stare at my teeth because I can't pronounce my words & I'm battling to keep my teeth from falling out. I have to continually pull my upper lip out with my finger & can't wear lipstick because my teeth stay colored. At a restaurant, I take my teeth out to eat…why would you need teeth that you can't eat with? The glue for the teeth makes you so thirsty but if you drink something, even 30 minutes later, they loosen up. I got a 2nd opinion; the dentist told me, "I would NEVER let someone leave looking like that," that the overbite was too big that I will never be able to eat with them, & that the teeth themselves were too long. He's right, they made my front canine teeth to be long and pointy, like a vampire! He told me that when he takes out teeth, he files down the bone spurs instead of Affordable Dentures telling you to take them out yourself, even when it hurts to do so…AND you will RARELY see the dentist; he didn't even come in to make sure my 2nd set was OK. Why should he…he was there with the first set?! In addition, my uppers & lowers have what appears to be black mold on them which I don't understand because I clean them, don't leave them in water, etc., AND my left ear and jaw are killing me, setting off migraines. I'm spending this time to be so detailed to help you; I wish I had known all this before I went. RUN, I BEG OF YOU! There are cheaper places with better quality, I promise!

I hooked up with this company when they advertised on a low income relief website. I was looking to find a vet in my area who could assist financially and provide euthanasia for my dog who has had cancer for over 1.5 years. I contacted them right away and was told they could help. Then, they sent me to a vet's asst. Who also said she can help. When I finally got transferred to a vet and had to tell my whole story for the 3RD time, all she did was list vets in my area, all of which I had already contacted. She suggested that I go to the vet that diagnosed him for additional labs and bloodwork. I don't need bloodwork. I KNOW what he has! His tumor is so big behind his ear that he doesn't walk straight and is deaf. His eyes are glazed over and he has dementia and wanders through the house. I close off our living space but I still have to go find him and bring him back. He can't get his legs under him, and his skin flinches when I barely touch him with one finger; he can no longer control his bodily functions and for a dog that lived to eat, he barely touches a thing. He has lived a yr longer than anyone, including vets, anticipated he would but it is time to take him and not make him suffer anymore. I don't need anymore labs. The "expert" that I finally got in touch with told me she could not call vets on my behalf. Why did you advertise on a low income pet website? I am disabled and can't afford $300+ to take this animal, who I love every inch of, to go to sleep and not hurt anymore, especially when I kept being told they could help. I have wasted 3 hours in a life where hours count. Disgraceful company... if you want legal assistance, go to Legal Shield in your state. They don't do anything to earn their monthly membership fee, unless you just want them to tell you they can help when they don't. Shame on them.

It is very misleading. I asked questions before entering in credit card details as they hooked me...
