What Are Implant-Supported Overdentures?
Implant-supported overdentures are a cutting-edge solution for individuals seeking a more secure and comfortable alternative to traditional dentures. These dentures are anchored to dental implants placed in the jawbone, providing superior stability and preventing slipping during daily activities like eating or speaking. At Koslin & Kahn Oral & Facial Surgery, we offer personalized care to help patients regain their confidence and functionality with this advanced treatment. To learn more about dentures supported by implants or to find out if you're a candidate, contact one of our four locations in Hoover, Alabaster, Jasper, or Clanton, AL to schedule a consultation.
How Are Implant Supported Dentures Placed?
The placement of implant-supported dentures involves several carefully planned steps to ensure a stable, functional, and natural-looking result. The process begins with a thorough evaluation and imaging to determine the optimal placement of the dental implants. During the initial procedure, small titanium posts are surgically placed into the jawbone to act as anchors. Over the next 3 – 6 months, the implants integrate with the bone in a process called osseointegration, providing a solid foundation. Once the implants are fully integrated, a custom-made denture, designed to fit securely and comfortably, is attached to the implants. Whether you need an implant-supported upper denture or an implant-supported lower denture, this approach ensures superior stability, improved comfort, and natural functionality.
What Are the Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures offer several significant advantages over traditional dentures, providing enhanced comfort, stability, and a natural appearance. Benefits of implant-supported dentures include:
- Improved stability and comfort, as they are securely anchored to the jawbone
- No need for messy adhesives or worry about dentures slipping
- Enhanced chewing and speaking ability, with no discomfort or shifting
- A natural-looking appearance that mimics real teeth
- Protection of jawbone health by preventing bone loss and maintaining bone density
