Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are a great option for elderly patients who want a more stable and comfortable denture experience. Unlike conventional dentures, implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implants, providing a secure and stable fit that prevents slipping and shifting. Implant-supported dentures also help preserve jawbone health and prevent bone loss, leading to better oral health. Additionally, implant-supported dentures are custom-made to match your natural teeth, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing smile.
Implant-supported dentures, also known as implant overdentures, are a type of denture that is securely attached to dental implants. Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone, providing a stable foundation for the denture. Unlike traditional removable dentures, implant-supported dentures offer increased stability, improved chewing efficiency, and a more natural feel. They are an excellent option for individuals who have experienced significant tooth loss or have struggled with the limitations of conventional dentures.
Implant-supported dentures can be either fixed or removable. Fixed implant-supported dentures, also called fixed full-arch dental prostheses, are permanently fixed to the dental implants and can only be removed by a dental professional. Removable implant-supported dentures, on the other hand, can be taken out for cleaning and maintenance but securely attach to the implants for enhanced stability and function. The number of dental implants required for implant-supported dentures can vary depending on individual factors, such as bone density and the specific treatment plan. Your dentist will evaluate your oral health and provide a personalized recommendation based on your needs and goals. With proper care and regular dental visits, implant-supported dentures can offer long-lasting, comfortable, and natural-looking results, significantly improving your ability to speak, chew, and smile with confidence.
