Implants for Dentures

An implant-supported denture is an oral appliance that replaces several teeth at once. It’s similar to a traditional denture. But instead of resting on top of your gums, an implant-supported denture attaches directly to your jawbone using dental implants.

Key Points:

  1. Improved Stability and Functionality:

    • Implant-supported dentures offer superior stability and retention compared to traditional dentures, allowing for improved chewing efficiency, speech clarity, and overall comfort.
    • Patients can enjoy a greater variety of foods without worrying about denture movement or discomfort.
  2. Preservation of Jawbone:

    • Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, helping to preserve bone density and prevent bone loss that can occur over time with traditional dentures.
    • This promotes better long-term oral health and preserves facial structure and appearance.
  3. Types of Implant-Supported Dentures:

    • Bar-Retained Dentures: The dentures are attached to a metal bar that is secured to the implants with clips or attachments.
    • Ball-Retained Dentures: The dentures are attached to the implants with ball-shaped attachments that snap into corresponding sockets on the denture.

Implant-supported dentures are removable dental prostheses that are anchored in place by dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone. These implants provide a secure foundation for the dentures, preventing them from slipping or shifting while eating, speaking, or smiling.

Dental implants are strategically placed into the jawbone, where they fuse with the surrounding bone through a process called osseointegration. Once the implants have healed and integrated with the bone, special attachments are connected to the implants, which secure the dentures in place.

Candidates for implant-supported dentures typically include individuals who are missing multiple teeth or who have poorly fitting traditional dentures. Good oral health and sufficient bone density in the jaw are essential for successful implant placement.
