Implant Dentures Offer Lifelike Feel & Function

Conventional dentures rest on top of your gums, held in place largely by suction. Your mouth changes as you age, so without tooth roots to provide stimulation to your jaw, your bone shrinks over time. This means you’ll require periodic relining procedures to adjust the fit of your replacement teeth. Dental implants prevent this kind of bone loss by stimulating your jaw.

Implant dentures also provide:

  • More Comfort – Implant dentures won’t rub against your gums the way conventional dentures can.
  • More Security – When attached to implants, your replacement teeth won’t loosen or shift.
  • More Chewing Power – You’ll have a bite almost as strong as before you lost teeth.
  • Easier Maintenance – Some implant dentures require no more than brushing and flossing. Your oral hygiene routine may not change at all.
  • Versatility – You can choose implant-retained dentures that can be easily removed for cleaning or implant-supported dentures that stay in place until your dentist removes them. Both stay in place without adhesive.

Implants Not for You? Choose From Other Denture Options

If you’d rather not get implants, you still have good denture options:

  • Full Dentures – These arches of teeth are used in the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both jaws for a full-mouth teeth replacement. You take them out daily for cleaning.
  • Partial Dentures – If you still have healthy teeth, you may want to get partials. They are also removed for daily cleaning.
  • Temporary Dentures – These temporary teeth keep your smile looking great until your final restorations are ready.

Common Questions About Dentures

How long does it take to make dentures?

Our team will take digital impressions that will be used by our lab partner to craft your customized dentures. It typically takes one to two weeks for them to be made and arrive back at our office. You’ll return for a fitting and realignment to ensure that your new teeth work and fit precisely and that your smile looks natural.

Which is better: dentures or implants?

Conventional dentures cost less than dental implant dentures. However, some of the benefits of implants may make it worth the added cost. For instance, dental implants will keep you from suffering the bone loss that causes your jaw to shrink, giving you an older appearance and making it more difficult to keep your dentures in place. They can also last a lifetime.

Can dentures fall out?

Traditional dentures that stay in place with dental adhesives will fit snugly and comfortably on top of your gums. Over time, however, they will need to be adjusted to maintain stability. To avoid this, we’re able to secure your dentures to dental implants. You won’t have to worry about your replacement teeth slipping or falling out when you eat or speak.
