YOU ARE NOT DESTINED TO LIVE WITH THESE BULKY, UNCOMFORTABLE DENTURES FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
If you have failing teeth that should be removed, it is important to know that the best time to place dental implants may be at the time of tooth removal. Remember that the most critical consideration after losing a tooth is to maintain the integrity of jaw bone. This is possible only with dental implants. Like natural teeth, dental Implants, which are anchored in the jaw bone, are able to transmit chewing forces to the surrounding bone and stimulate ‘bone remodeling’ (a natural biological process which constantly destroys old bone cells and replaces them with new cells). This process continues all through life, as long as natural teeth are present, and is responsible for maintaining the volume and density of jaw bones. However, it slows down sharply after tooth loss, and results in jaw bone shrinkage and collapse of facial structure.
Depending on your specific condition, there may be several treatment options available to restore your lost teeth with dental implants. It would be best for you to consult an experienced dental implant expert and find out what approach would work best for you. The following presents different options available for people who need all their teeth replaced:
TEETH IN A DAY. It is now possible to restore all your teeth with strong, permanent implant teeth, in one day. That means, as few as 4 dental implants are placed into each arch, and immediately restored with beautiful, strong teeth that are fixed in place. No need to take them out of your mouth, no movements, no denture adhesives, no clicking.

THIS PICTURE DEMONSTRATES HOW TEETH ARE ANCHORED TO JAW BONE OVERDENTURE. This option is ideal if you have dentures that are loose and unstable, but otherwise they look fine. With as few as 2 or 4 implants in each arch, your dentures become stable. This will significantly improve the chewing function and eliminate slipping. It will also improve speaking. With 2-4 dental implants on the upper arch, the palate portion of the upper denture can be eliminated. Quite often it is possible to place dental implants and convert your existing dentures to an overdenture. |
