Common Type of Dentures

  • Removable Dentures: A custom removable dentures is taken out daily and held into place using a high-quality adhesive. This form of tooth replacement requires daily cleaning and maintenance. Most patients with removable dentures often seek a more stable solution for their teeth replacement in the future.
  • Fixed Dentures: A fixed denture, also known as an implant secured denture, is a permanent restoration. Implant secured dentures offer a long-lasting, stable solution for lost teeth. This solution also allows you to smile, chew, and speak without worry of slippage.

Benefits of Implant Secured Dentures

When you lose your teeth, the remaining teeth shift to fill the empty space your missing teeth left behind. The bone underneath your missing teeth also begins to deteriorate until the point where it can no longer support your remaining teeth.

Implants are designed to replace the natural tooth root, which helps stimulate the jaw bone and prevent further deterioration. Many patients choose implant supported dentures because it offers them a secure and natural looking solution for missing teeth.

With implant supported dentures, you can also look forward to these key benefits:

  • Improved gum health
  • Prevents bone retention
  • Prevents facial sagging due to missing teeth
  • A more secure solution
  • A convenient option for lost teeth
  • Minimizes irritation to the gum tissue and surrounding areas
