Traditional dentures have their benefits in that they allow patients to enjoy a full, complete smile once again. Their natural look allows for a more comfortable and confident appearance, but they also leave much to be desired, such as the ability to chew thoroughly or the fear of accidental slippage. With implant dentures<\/a>, though, the anxieties surrounding missing teeth and traditional prosthetics go away. Learn why attaching a custom prosthetic to secured dental implants is the new route many are taking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What Causes Many People to Give Up on Traditional Dentures?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to traditional dentures, they are far better than those created centuries ago for presidents and other civilians. Their materials and placement have evolved from wood and ivory to porcelain and acrylic, allowing for a more secure and stable prosthetic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, even with the advancements in the field, many patients still become frustrated with these artificial teeth and what they do not offer. It\u2019s not uncommon to hear individuals complain about:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • The inability to eat certain foods because of how essential it is to chew with both sides of the mouth to keep dentures in place<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The messy denture adhesive that is often used to keep prosthetic teeth from shifting or slipping<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The frequency of adjustments and replacements<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The self-conscious feeling of whether others will notice dentures when smiling or talking<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    Why Choose Implant Dentures?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Just like traditional dentures have changed over time, so has the incorporation and creation of new tooth replacement solutions. One of the most popular developments includes implant dentures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    As a more permanent way to replace missing teeth, these prosthetics do not require denture adhesives or natural suction. Instead, they\u2019re held in place using 4-6 implant posts that are strategically positioned along the jawbone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With minor oral surgery, these posts fuse with the bone tissues and form a firm base for custom dentures. But instead of resting on top of the gums, they are secured into place along the implant posts. While there is an option to choose between a fixed or removable denture, the same goal is achieved \u2013 a stable, longer-lasting smile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Not only does a person get to eat all their favorite foods, but they also feel more confident in their appearance and enjoy greater cost savings because of their permanence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When considering implant dentures, don\u2019t dismiss the many benefits these prosthetics provide. Although costlier in the beginning than regular prosthetics, they make it easier to enjoy life with a smile that stays in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
