Perfect Fit with Implant Dentures

There are two main types of implant-supported dentures:

1. Bar-Retained Dentures: A metal bar is attached to the implants, and the denture clips onto the bar for secure placement.
2. Ball-Retained Dentures: Also called stud-attachment dentures, these use ball-shaped attachments on the implants that fit into sockets on the denture.

Both types offer more stability than traditional dentures and can be designed for either the upper or lower jaw.

Implant dentures offer numerous advantages over traditional dentures, enhancing both functionality and appearance:

• Stable and Secure Fit: Unlike traditional dentures, implant dentures are anchored securely to dental implants, providing unparalleled stability.
• Natural Appearance: Custom-made to blend seamlessly with your existing teeth, implant dentures offer a realistic and aesthetically pleasing look.
• Improved Oral Health: Dental implants help preserve jawbone density, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
• Enhanced Comfort: With implant dentures, there’s no risk of slipping or discomfort, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with ease.
• Easy Maintenance: Care for your implant dentures just like your natural teeth, with regular brushing and flossing.

Before opting for implant dentures, it’s essential to determine whether you’re a suitable candidate. The ideal candidate for implant-supported dentures:

• Has multiple missing teeth or is completely edentulous (no teeth).
• Has sufficient jawbone density to support dental implants (or is willing to undergo bone grafting if necessary).
• Is in good overall health and has no chronic health conditions that could impair healing (like uncontrolled diabetes).
• Wants a more secure, permanent option than traditional removable dentures.

A consultation with our dental professionals will help you determine whether implant dentures are the right choice for you.

Understanding the process can help you feel more comfortable and prepared for your new smile:

1. Initial Consultation: Our dental experts will assess your oral health and discuss your goals to determine if implant dentures are the right solution for you.
2. Customized Treatment Plan: Using advanced imaging technology, we create a detailed treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
3. Implant Placement: The procedure involves placing several titanium implants into your jawbone, which will serve as the foundation for your new dentures.
4. Temporary Dentures: You will receive a set of temporary dentures to wear during the healing process, ensuring functionality and aesthetics.
5. Permanent Restoration: After the implants have fully integrated with your jawbone, we replace the temporary dentures with your custom-made permanent set.

While the initial investment in implant dentures may seem significant, it’s important to consider the long-term benefits. Factors influencing the cost include:

• Quality Materials: High-quality materials for implants and prosthetics ensure durability and aesthetic appeal.
• Case Complexity: The specific needs and complexity of your dental health can affect the overall cost.
• Expertise and Location: The experience of the dental professionals and the clinic’s location can influence pricing.
