Implant-supported dentures
If you have lost all of your natural teeth, implant-supported dentures may be a good option. Implant-supported dentures are held in place by dental implants, which are small titanium posts that are surgically placed into the jawbone.
Dental implants provide a strong and stable foundation for your dentures, making it easier to eat and speak. And because implant-supported dentures are securely attached to the implants, they are less likely to slip or move around in your mouth.
Steps in implant surgery
If you are considering implant-supported dentures, it is important to know that the placement of dental implants requires surgery. An oral surgeon or periodontist usually performs the implant surgery, and a prosthodontist then makes the dentures.
The implant surgery itself is usually done in two steps.
- First, the implant posts are placed into the jawbone.
- Then, the implant site is allowed to heal for several months before the dentures are attached to the implants.
If you are considering implant-supported dentures, it is important to have a consultation with a dentist or prosthodontist to discuss your options and find out if implant-supported dentures are right for you.
