When you are missing all the teeth on your upper or lower jaw or both jaws, full dentures are a restorative dental treatment that can restore your ability to eat. They also shave years off your appearance and restore a beautiful smile. Traditional dentures are desirable to restore missing teeth. However, they do have some disadvantages that wearers learn to live with. Since they are removable, sometimes they can become unseated at the most inconvenient times, causing moments of embarrassment. Adhesive pastes and powders can be messy to apply and sometimes interfere with the taste of food. Thanks to high-tech dental advancements, Huebner Smiles Dentistry and Orthodontics can offer you a better way.
With this type of denture, you do not need to search for the most effective adhesive paste or powder. Eating chewy or sticky foods will not cause a problem either. Implant dentures are locked down tight to prevent shifting. No more worrying about whether or not your dentures will fall out.
Are Implanted-Supported Dentures Right for Me?
Implants are not for everyone. Good candidates for this procedure will have excellent oral hygiene and health. There must also be enough bone in the implant areas to support the implants. Your dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth and jaws to determine if there is enough bone to support dental implants. If it is decided that you are a suitable candidate for the procedure, you will be instructed on what to expect during the process. Do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have.
We want to be sure you understand the benefits and risks that come with dental implants.
