Star Dental Institute Offers Same-Day Dentures with On-Site Lab in Colorado Springs, CO
Star Dental Institute, led by Dr. Gary Moore, DDS, is now offering same-day dentures in Colorado Springs through its on-site dental laboratory. Patients walk in with missing teeth and walk out with a fully fitted, custom prosthetic the same day, eliminating the two-to-six-week wait that traditional denture treatment requires. The practice accepts Medicaid, offers Sunbit financing, and provides free consultations at 3695 Star Ranch Road.
Colorado Springs, CO, United States, 13th May 2026— Star Dental Institute, a trusted dental practice serving Colorado Springs and surrounding communities, is helping patients restore their smiles in a single visit through its same-day dentures service, powered by an on-site dental laboratory. The practice, led by Dr. Gary Moore, DDS, eliminates the traditional weeks-long wait associated with conventional denture treatment by fabricating custom dentures in-house, often delivering a finished prosthetic the same day as extraction.
For thousands of Colorado Springs residents living with missing or failing teeth, the prospect of going months without a functional smile has historically been the biggest barrier to seeking treatment. Star Dental Institute’s same-day dentures program, also known as immediate dentures or one-day dentures, removes that barrier by combining digital impressions, in-house lab capability, and an experienced clinical team under one roof at 3695 Star Ranch Road.
Why an On-Site Lab Changes the Patient Experience
Most dental practices outsource denture fabrication to third-party laboratories, a process that typically requires two to six weeks and multiple appointments before a patient receives a finished prosthetic. During that wait, patients are often left without functional teeth, affecting their ability to eat, speak clearly, and feel confident in everyday situations.
Star Dental Institute’s on-site lab compresses that timeline dramatically. Digital scans and impressions move directly from the treatment chair to the in-house lab technicians, where dentures are fabricated using modern materials and equipment. The result is a custom prosthetic that is placed immediately after tooth extraction, allowing patients to leave the office the same day with a natural-looking, fully functional smile.
“Nobody should have to spend weeks or months waiting to smile again,” said Dr. Gary Moore, founder of Star Dental Institute. “Having the lab right here in our facility means we control the timeline, the quality, and the fit. Patients walk out the door with their teeth on the same day, and that changes everything about how they feel about treatment.”
The Same-Day Dentures Process at Star Dental Institute
The practice has refined a streamlined treatment workflow designed to deliver same-day dentures Colorado Springs patients can rely on for both speed and quality. The process includes:
- Initial consultation and evaluation with comprehensive examination, digital X-rays, and treatment planning
- Digital impressions taken chairside for precision fit and accelerated turnaround
- In-house denture fabrication at the on-site lab, eliminating shipping delays and external dependencies
- Same-day placement immediately following extraction, with adjustments made on the spot for a secure, comfortable fit
- Follow-up care including aftercare instructions, denture maintenance guidance, and adjustment appointments as needed
Patients can choose from full dentures, partial dentures, and immediate dentures, with options tailored to each individual’s oral health, lifestyle, and budget.
Addressing a Real Gap in Colorado Springs Dental Care
Tooth loss affects more than 36 million Americans, and Colorado Springs is no exception. Many residents delay treatment because of cost, fear of long recovery periods, or the social discomfort of being without teeth for weeks while waiting on a traditional denture lab. Star Dental Institute’s model directly addresses each of these concerns.
The practice offers economy dentures starting at $400 and denture implants starting at $899, with transparent upfront pricing and no hidden fees. It also accepts Medicaid, partners with Sunbit for flexible financing, and provides free consultations so patients can understand their options without obligation.
“What I hear most from patients is relief,” Dr. Moore added. “Relief that they don’t have to hide their smile for months, relief that the price is honest, and relief that they were treated with respect from the moment they called. That’s the standard we hold ourselves to every day.”
A Patient-Focused Approach Backed by Decades of Experience
Dr. Gary Moore earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Loma Linda University School of Dentistry in 1986 and has practiced dentistry for over three decades. He has completed hundreds of hours of continuing education and is widely recognized in the Colorado Springs community for his gentle, patient-focused approach to complex restorative cases, including full-mouth rehabilitation, dental implants, and denture solutions.
Patient feedback consistently highlights the practice’s speed and craftsmanship. In one Google review, longtime denture wearer Steven Sobolewski noted that he received new full dentures in a single day at Star Dental Institute, compared to the four months his previous denture treatment had required years earlier — a comparison that reflects the broader shift the practice is bringing to denture care in Colorado Springs.
Who Benefits Most from Same-Day Dentures
Same-day dentures are particularly well suited for patients who:
- Are facing multiple extractions due to decay, gum disease, or trauma
- Want to avoid the social and functional difficulty of a “toothless” healing phase
- Need a faster, more predictable timeline than traditional denture treatment offers
- Are looking for an affordable, Medicaid-accepted option in the Colorado Springs area
- Want a single trusted provider handling extraction, prosthetic fabrication, and follow-up under one roof
