Implant Dentures

Disadvantages

Some of the major disadvantages of typical traditional dentures, which are not secured by dental implants:

Unsecured dentures are uncomfortable and often painful
Loose-fitting dentures do not look natural, especially when eating
As the bone continues to melt away, the dentures become loose and can fall out when laughing, sneezing or coughing without the use of adhesives
People without their teeth and supporting bone visibly age much faster
Wearing unstabilized dentures usually undermines a person’s self confidence.
People with unsecured dentures cannot eat certain foods, such as steak, corn on the cob and apples

These problems can be solved with implant-secured dentures, which are stable (securely fastened to 2-6 implants) and maintain the integrity of the facial structures by preserving the bone.

Advantages

Some of the many advantages of dental implant retained dentures and dental implant supported dentures:

They are more comfortable and stable than traditional dentures
They diminish the bone resorption process (deterioration of jaw)
Integrity of the facial structures is maintained
Appearance is improved
It is not necessary to cover the roof of the mouth, so food’s texture, temperature and taste can be better appreciated
Relines and repairs are infrequent compared to traditional dentures
No need for adhesives inside the mouth to help hold dentures in place
Natural biting and chewing capacity is restored
