Although they are still a great way to replace missing teeth, traditional dentures are not without their setbacks. Over time they can loosen and not adhere as well as they originally did to the wearer’s gums. For this reason, Liverpool Implant & Aesthetic Dental Spa is pleased to offer a revolutionary new approach to dentures which addresses these issues.
Implant-retained dentures are the most advanced form of dentures currently available. They offer ultimate security and provide high levels of stability. The dentures are anchored in place on posts, which are secured in the sockets of the jawbone. This provides permanent support and increased durability. The advantages of implant-retained dentures include:
- Aesthetically pleasing: They are lifelike and resemble natural teeth.
- Greater peace of mind: Wearers need not worry about the devices coming loose.
- Functionality: They provide improved levels of stability and durability. Wearers are free to eat what they want without any worry about breaking the device.
Implant-retained dentures provide greater retention if replacing missing teeth, also improving the aesthetic appearance and functionality of the mouth. They are recommended for patients who are in good oral health and who do not smoke. If you have been approved for the procedure you will undergo a straightforward procedure.
- During the procedure, an incision will be made into the gums.
- Next, the gum tissue is lifted so that a hole can be drilled into the jawbone.
- The implants will be placed in the newly-drilled hole and the gum tissue is stitched and left to heal.
- At a later appointment, the dentures are attached and the procedure is complete.
