Implant Retained Dentures
Whether you are new to dentures or have had conventional dentures for years, you will notice your dentures losing their snug fit over time. This is due to the shrinkage of the jawbone which leads to many adverse affects (discomfort from your denture shifting, changes in your facial appearance). Dental implants can be used to hold your denture securely in place leading to the following benefits:
Eat What You Want:
Traditional dentures allow you only 10% of the chewing efficiency that natural teeth offer. Dental implants can restore this lost chewing efficiency. With two dental implants securing your denture, you will regain 60% of the chewing power of natural teeth. With four dental implants, you can achieve 90% of the chewing power of natural teeth! Allow us to help you regain your ability to chew all of the foods you have been avoiding and enjoy life more fully!
Improved Comfort and Speech:
Traditional dentures tend to shift in your mouth causing mumbling, slurred speech, and clicking noises. Gum irritation and pain from exposed nerves may also be associated with traditional dentures. These problems are eliminated with dental implants that are securely anchored to the jawbone. An implant-supported denture looks, feels, and functions more like your natural teeth enabling you to function and speak comfortably without any fear of your dentures shifting or falling out.
Long Term Results:
Dental implants preserve the bone by reducing forces applied to the bone during chewing. This will lead to less denture adjustments and remakes.
Smile with Confidence:
With dental implants, your teeth will be secure. You will no longer need to cover your mouth when you smile or laugh. Regain the confidence in public that you had with your natural teeth!
