How much is it to replace a permanent retainer with attached false teeth? (Photo)

tetrist
I had two baby teeth that didn't have adult teeth growing underneath them. Because of this, I have two large gaps in my bottom front teeth. Braces didn't work, and the dentist's solution was to install a permanent retainer with attached teeth. This was 10 years ago and now the piece broke. The wire snapped, and the acrylic used to attach the teeth crumbled. What is the most affordable option to replace/repair this? What is the price range? Is there a better option instead of the retainer itself?
