What Are Implant Retained Dentures?
Implant retained dentures are a sophisticated type of denture supported by implants anchored in your jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures that sit on your gums, these are securely attached, offering a stable and snug fit.
This method involves placing a few strategic implants that serve as roots for your dentures, effectively locking them in place. This setup not only feels more natural but also helps maintain bone health and provides strength similar to natural teeth.
Whether you’ve lost a few or all of your teeth, implant retained dentures can restore your smile’s functionality and your confidence.
What Are The Benefits of Implant Retained Dentures?
Implant-secured dentures come with a wide range of benefits:
- Secure Fit: Implant-retained dentures stay firmly in place without slipping or shifting, removing the need for adhesives. This secure fit makes eating and speaking feel more natural and effortless.
- Bone Preservation: The implants merge with the bone, supporting the jaw structure and preventing the bone loss that often comes with missing teeth.
- Increased Comfort: These dentures distribute biting pressure much like natural teeth and don’t irritate the gums, enhancing comfort.
- Enhanced Oral Health and Appearance: Implant-retained dentures boost both your oral health and your smile’s appearance, giving you even more reasons to smile.
Implant Retained Denture Treatment Process
The journey to getting your implant retained dentures includes a few key steps. We’ll be with you every step of the way to make sure everything goes smoothly and comfortably. While the specific treatment plan is unique to each patient, here’s what you can usually expect:
1. Consultation
- We’ll assess your oral health to make sure you’re suitable for implant-retained dentures.
2. Implant Placement
- Then, we’ll surgically place the implants into your jaw. They will fuse with your jawbone over a few months.
3. Impressions
- Once the implants have healed, your dentist will take precise impressions to create dentures that perfectly fit your mouth structure.
4. Denture Attachment
- The new dentures are then securely attached to the implants, ensuring a comfortable, natural-feeling fit.
5. Ongoing Support
- Our team will keep you informed and comfortable throughout the whole process, ensuring a smooth transition to your new smile.
