Facts about Dental Implant Supported Dentures
2
What are implant supported dentures?
  • An implant-supported denture is used when a
    person doesnt have any teeth in the jaw, but has
    enough bone in the jaw to support implants. An
    implant-supported denture has special attachments
    that snap onto the implants. The use of dental
    implants to stabilize dentures has proven to be
    successful for many people. The number continues
    to grow as word spreads about the effectiveness
    and long-term durability of the treatment.

Why implant supported dentures?
  • Many people struggle to keep their dentures
    secure, particularly in the lower jaw due to
    aging and bone loss. This causes dentures to
    become extremely loose and therefore hard to eat,
    drink, and even to speak. Although there are
    adhesives for loose dentures not everybody is too
    fond of it. It can get messy and frustrating
    having to put so much adhesive throughout the
    day. Fortunately, there is a way to make your
    denture work the way it was intended stabilize it
    with dental implants.

Benefits of denture stabilization
  • Restores proper chewing, allowing a better diet
    and improved health
  • Improves speech and confidence
  • Increases comfort with less irritation of gum
    tissue
  • Ends the cost and inconvenience of denture
    adhesives

What can I expect?
  • During your first surgery, implants will be
    placed into your jawbone. Youll be required to
    wait three to six months before you can have the
    second surgery this period of time allows the
    implants to fuse to your jawbone. The second
    surgery exposes the tops of your implants. Then a
    healing cap is placed at the top of the implant
    for about 10-14 days. After that your dentist
    will then take impressions to start the fitting
    process of your dentures.

  • This process is fairly long but in the long
    run it will be absolutely worth it! If you would
