Stable Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are dentures that are secured to the gums using mini dental implants. For patients struggling with loose or uncomfortable dentures, adding implant support provides a more stable, comfortable, and functional solution.
Mini implants are placed directly into the jawbone, where they become firmly anchored. Special attachments on the underside of the denture connect to these implants, allowing the denture to “snap” into place. This keeps the denture stable, secure, and more natural-feeling during everyday activities like eating and speaking.
benefits of mini implant-supported dentures
- Confidence in everyday life: People who choose implant-supported dentures can speak, laugh, and eat in public with confidence. You won’t have to worry about your dentures slipping, shifting, or falling out while talking or eating, giving you the freedom to enjoy social situations without anxiety.
- Greater comfort: Implant-supported dentures are securely anchored, which makes them feel more like natural teeth. They reduce gum irritation and soreness, and patients often experience fewer canker sores and painful spots that are common with conventional dentures.
- More natural appearance: Because less plastic is required to hold implant-supported dentures in place, they look more natural than traditional dentures. Over time, wearing these dentures can also help maintain your facial structure by preventing jawbone shrinkage and bone loss, keeping your smile youthful and supported.
- Improved speech: Conventional dentures often make speaking clearly difficult, causing slurred speech or clicking noises. Implant-supported dentures remain stable in the mouth, allowing you to talk easily and naturally, giving you confidence in conversations and presentations.
- No need for adhesives: With implant-supported dentures, the secure fit eliminates the need for messy denture adhesives. You can enjoy a reliable, comfortable fit every day without the hassle of pastes or glues.
