Dentures
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures can be either "conventional" or "immediate." Full or complete dentures replace all the teeth in both jaws. Replacing unsightly diseased teeth will help you feel good about yourself. You can expect your dentures to look natural, unobtrusive and attractive.
Immediate dentures can be made before the teeth are extracted, and inserted directly after the teeth are removed. Measurements and impressions for these dentures are taken by the dentist before the teeth are extracted.
Partial Dentures
A removable partial denture usually consists of replacement teeth attached to a pink or gum-coloured plastic base, which is connected by metal framework that holds the denture in place in the mouth. Partial dentures are used when one or more natural teeth remain in the upper or lower jaw.
The problems with loose dentures
Dentures are unlikely to last a lifetime. All mouths change with age. When gums and bone recede or shrink the dentures become loose and ill fitting. If you have this problem, you already know about the embarrassment of slipping dentures, not being able to eat the foods that you love and the ineffectiveness of denture adhesives. Fortunately, there is a way to make your denture work the way it was intended: stabilize it with dental implants.
Benefits of denture stabilization with dental implants
- 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
- Often can utilize your existing denture
- Minimally invasive procedure
The use of dental implants to stabilize dentures has proven to be successful for hundreds of thousands of people. The number continues to grow daily as word spreads about the effectiveness and long-term durability of the treatment. In fact, dental implants have the highest success rate of any implanted surgical device.
Every patient is different and patient results may vary. Only a trained clinician can choose the best treatment plan for you. Please ask of our our Bayview Village Dental Associate Professionals to explain the benefits and risks to determine if denture stabilization with implants is right for you. We offer complimentary consultations.
