Full dentures that replace an entire arch of teeth may be difficult for some patients to keep stable. They may shift out of place due to poor suction or low-quality dental adhesives. Patients who struggle with their dentures may want to speak to the team of Smile Brighter Willoughby Hills in OH. Dr. Michael Stern often reviews with his denture patients the benefits of placing dental implants to secure restorations in place.
Dental implants are titanium posts that an oral surgeon will place into the jawbone. These posts help in supporting dental crowns, bridges, or dentures. Dr. Michael Stern can refer patients to an oral surgeon for placement, and then work with them in retrofitting their dentures for the implants. This allows the denture to snap into place, providing the best stability and strength possible from a full cosmetic denture. Patients are able to enjoy their favorite foods and have improved self-confidence with implant-supported dentures.
Patients considering this method of restoration are urged to contact our team for a consultation appointment and initial examination. X-rays may need to be completed to determine if patients have sufficient bone for the successful placement of dental implants. Those who do not may not be a viable candidate, or may want to take the time to speak to an oral surgeon about bone grafting.
Implant-supported dentures are one of the most effective ways of repairing the smile after extensive tooth loss. Patients will find that they are stronger and more durable than traditional dentures, and enjoy the advantages of a more permanent solution to tooth loss. Dental implants have been used for many decades to repair smiles and replace missing teeth and can last a lifetime with proper care. This makes them a highly desirable option for patients who want to enjoy all their favorite foods without hesitation!
Dr. Michael Stern and his team are committed to assisting patients of all ages in enjoying better dental health and function. Contact Smile Brighter Willoughby Hills today to book a consultation visit with our professionals and learn more about implant-supported dentures for improved function and health.
