If you have missing teeth and need a permanent solution, the implant-supported dentures at Dental Attraction, Texas, offer a functional, aesthetically pleasing, and long-lasting solution.
An implant-supported denture is a kind of overdenture that is used to replace several teeth at once. For patients who have lost most of their teeth, implant-supported dentures are recommended.
Implant-supported dentures are held in position and supported by dental implants that are surgically inserted into the patient's jawbone. This makes the implant-supported dentures exceptionally strong and stable.
The American Dental Association (ADA) says that dentures need the same care as your natural teeth. The following are the steps to follow to care for the implant-supported dentures:
The patient's first visit will include an examination and a full set of X-Rays. Your dentist will then evaluate your overall oral health, and determine if you are a candidate for implants based on the level and width of your bone structure. Together you and your dentist will determine the best course of action. An impression is taken of the upper and lower arch, and sent to the dental lab to process.
During the implant placement procedure, the dentist begins by numbing the area with anesthesia. Then, the implants are placed into the bone, to serve as anchors that will support your new set of teeth. Once they are placed firmly in place, dentures are snapped in. These implants help the dentures stay in place securely, without falling out.
On the day of your surgery, extractions, bone grafts, and implants will be performed and your dentures will be inserted and worn during the healing process.
