Repair And Secure A Beautiful Smile With Implant-Supported Dentures
If you’ve been living with loose or uncomfortable dentures, implant-supported dentures in Longmont, CO, might just be the game-changer you’ve been waiting for!
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures are a hybrid treatment for missing teeth that combines the benefits of dentures and a fixed bridge solution. They have customized dentures secured in place using implants embedded in the jaw. Traditional dentures mount to a person’s mouth and gums. Implant-supported dentures, on the other hand, are mounted to fixed implants that are placed in the mouth.
The overarching benefit of getting implant-supported dentures is the incredible stability they provide. Optimal traditional dentures are custom-fitted to the shape of your mouth. However, the shape of your gums can change over time, and therefore, the stability of regular dentures can vary and become very uncomfortable to wear. Oftentimes, people use denture gel with regular dentures to help keep them in place. Implant-supported dentures do not require adhesives!
Procedure Process Explained
- Implant-supported dentures snap into place on anchors placed in the jaw. This restoration is removable, however, to allow for effective cleaning. They are most often used when a patient no longer has any teeth left but has sufficient jawbone to support the implants. Implant-support dentures replace a full set of teeth, either your upper or lower sets of teeth.
- The process of getting implant dentures can take months but provides added benefits once the procedure is complete. The longest part of the process is getting the implants placed in your jaw. Because of the nature of the implants, our dentist needs to allow them to bond with your jawbone after being put in place. It generally takes anywhere from two to six months for this to happen.
- After the procedure, our dentist needs to attach a component to the implants that will connect with the dentures. The nature of this part of the procedure varies depending on which dentures you opt for, which is something our dentist will explain to you thoroughly beforehand.
