What Are Implant Dentures?
Instead of relying on adhesive or suction to stay in place, implant dentures are attached to prosthetic tooth roots (dental implants) that are surgically inserted beneath the gumline. They thus provide outstanding stability and strength.
There are a few main categories of implant dentures:
Fixed/permanent Implant Dentures
Fixed implant dentures, sometimes called hybrid prosthetics, are permanently attached to the implants that support them. They can only be removed by a dental professional. Typically, it takes 4 – 6 implants to provide adequate support for this type of restoration.
Removable Implant Dentures
As their name implies, removable implant dentures (sometimes called overdentures) are easy for patients to remove on their own. They may be secured onto their implants via ball socket attachments or a bar. They usually require fewer implants than a fixed restoration.
The Implant Denture Procedure
The implant denture procedure can vary from case to case, but it usually goes something like this:
- You attend a consultation, wherein we begin to plan your treatment
- After any necessary preliminary procedures, your implant dentist in Manchester at First Line Dental inserts the implants into your jawbone
- The implants bond with the tissue around them in a process known as osseointegration
- The attachments that will secure your restoration in place are placed on top of the implants
- We design and place your final restoration, and you can begin to enjoy your new smile
From beginning to end, the entire process can take several months to a year or longer. Although it requires a significant investment of time, most patients would agree that the end result is worth it!
Am I A Candidate For Implant Dentures?
In general, candidates for implant dentures are in fair oral and overall health. They should also stick to excellent oral hygiene habits and have a jawbone that is strong enough to support implants. Most adults who have suffered extensive tooth loss are able to receive dental implants in Manchester, either right away or after some preliminary treatment.
Benefits Of Combining Dentures & Dental Implants
Some of the most outstanding benefits of implant dentures include:
- They are sturdier than traditional dentures and can enable you to eat virtually any food
- Dental implants prevent the jawbone deterioration that normally occurs after tooth loss
- They look and feel quite natural
- Dental implants and their restorations last long enough that they are a better monetary value than forms of tooth replacement that need to be replaced every few years
