Implant-supported dentures are a modern, advanced solution for replacing multiple missing teeth. Instead of resting on the gums like traditional dentures, these dentures are securely attached to dental implants—small titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone. The implants act as artificial tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for the dentures. Depending on your needs, implant-supported dentures can be either removable or fixed (permanent). Both options offer significant advantages over traditional dentures, including improved comfort, functionality, and aesthetics.
Patients love implant-supported dentures for a variety of reasons:
While traditional dentures may seem like a simpler solution, they come with significant drawbacks:
Stability: Traditional dentures can slip or shift, especially while eating or speaking. Implant-supported dentures stay securely in place.
Bone Loss: Traditional dentures do not stimulate the jawbone, leading to bone loss over time. Implants preserve bone health.
Comfort: Implant-supported dentures are more comfortable and feel more natural than traditional dentures.
