Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are a type of over-dentures that are anchored to the gums using implants, offering a more comfortable and functional solution for patients experiencing discomfort or fitting issues with their dentures. The implants are inserted into the jawbone and firmly attached to the surrounding bone, with attachments placed on the underside of the denture to connect it to the implants. This allows the denture to snap onto the implants, providing stability and security.
What are the benefits of dentures supported by implants?
- Implant-supported dentures can boost your self-assurance in social situations by removing the concern of dentures slipping or falling out while eating or speaking in public. Bid farewell to that anxiety!
- Implant-supported dentures provide a more comfortable and secure fit in the mouth, closely resembling natural teeth. They also cause less irritation to the gums than traditional dentures, reducing discomfort and the risk of canker sores for patients.
- Implant-supported dentures provide a more natural appearance compared to traditional dentures by utilizing minimal plastic for retention. Additionally, they aid in preventing jaw shrinkage and bone loss, resulting in lasting enhancements to one's appearance.
- Traditional dentures can hinder clear speech, leading to slurred speech and clicking noises. Implant-supported dentures provide a solution, allowing you to speak confidently and naturally.
- Implant-supported dentures are the preferred option because they eliminate the need for denture adhesives.
