We can do implants for dentures. There’s multiple ways that we can do that. One option is like a snap, and the dentures snap on. The great thing about that is that they don’t move. One of the biggest complaints that people have with a lower denture is that it floats around. They bite their cheeks, and their tongue, and it really becomes like a disability. And so, what we can do is place dental implants, and those implants anchor the denture. They don’t move. They can chew steak again. And it’s really, it really changes their lives. And it’s one of the most rewarding services that we provide, because it really changes someone’s life. We can take someone who hasn’t been able to eat steak for 20 years, and we can allow them to eat whatever they want. For so many people, it’s, it’s life-changing.
Stop Fighting with Slippery Dentures
Conventional dentures rest over your gums. If you bite into the wrong thing or try to say certain words, your teeth get pushed or pulled out of place. They are better than nothing, but on their own, they can’t do what real teeth do.
If you’ve had dentures for a while, you know how frustrating they can be. Chewing takes more effort, which can make meals seem like a chore. Loose-fitting dentures give you only about 20 percent of the bite force of someone with all their teeth. Denture adhesives may help, but that’s a temporary solution at best. Plus, you don’t want your food to taste like adhesive.
Full-mouth reconstruction with dental implants can address those concerns, but this may not be an option for you for many reasons. That’s when our reconstructive dentures may be a good alternative. They are:
- Molded to your bite and positioned based on your muscles
- Provide greater stability even if you lose bone mass
- Allow you to use little or no adhesive to hold your dentures in place
