Implant Supported Dentures

Services provided by General Dentists.

Implant-supported dentures are over-dentures fixed to the gums by mini implants. For patients with an uncomfortable or loose-fitting denture, stabilizing it with mini implants can be a more comfortable and functional solution.

Mini implants are placed in the jaw where they heal firmly in place by the surrounding bone. Attachments are placed in the underside of the denture that connect to the implants. When placed in the mouth, the denture snaps onto the implants, keeping it stable and secure.

What are the benefits of dentures supported by mini implants?

• People who opt for implant-supported dentures are more comfortable when they talk, laugh, and eat in public. You’ll never have to worry about your false teeth slipping or falling out while you eat or are engaged in conversation.

• Implant-supported dentures are far more comfortable because they are more secure. There is also less irritation of gum tissue which is acommon problems for patients with conventional dentures, who suffer an increased incidence of pain and canker sores.

•  Wearing implant-supported dentures can also improve your appearance in the long term by preventing jaw shrinkage and bone loss.

• Best of all, with implant-supported dentures, there is no need to use denture adhesives.
