Dentures and Implants

ABOUT DENTAL IMPLANTS

Advantages of Dental Implants

Improved appearance. Dental implants are fused in the bone just like natural tooth roots so they look and feel like your natural teeth.

Implant-supported dentures. Implants can be used to anchor dentures, preventing them from slipping. Implant-supported dentures can increase your confidence by improving your speech, increasing the comfort of dentures, and making eating easier.

Preserving oral health. Because altering nearby teeth is not required for an implant like it is for a bridge, implants are considered the gold-standard for replacing a missing tooth.Normally when a tooth is removed, the bone that supported that tooth goes away over time. Implants prevent bone loss and help maintain adjacent teeth.

Cost of Dentures and Implant

Replacing 1 – 3 teeth

A single tooth implant is a dental prosthetic device used to replace a missing tooth. It consists of a titanium screw that acts as a replacement for the tooth root and a crown that replaces the visible portion of the tooth. The implant is surgically placed into the jawbone and allowed to heal and integrate with the bone before the crown is attached. Single tooth implants offer several advantages, such as improved oral health, improved biting and chewing function, and improved appearance. They are a long-lasting solution for tooth loss and can help to prevent further damage to the surrounding teeth.

The Snap-In Denture Option

If you have many bad or missing teeth, sometimes it is best to start over with a new set. Snap-in implant dentures are a great way to get that new start at an affordable price. These are removable implant dentures that snap in and out using standard, full size dental implants, NOT mini implants. Standard, full size implants have a much higher success rate and offer greater flexibility of use than mini implants.
