For patients missing a majority of their teeth, implant-supported dentures are commonly used. Implant-supported dentures are dentures that are secured in place using implants in the jaw. They are often used when a patient no longer has teeth remaining in their mouth but enough bone in their jaw to support implants. Implant-supported dentures snap into place on top of implants but can be removed for cleaning.
Implant-supported dentures provide a number of benefits and are a great improvement from traditional removable dentures. They do not require any adhesives or powders to help the dentures stick and are very secure and comfortable, significantly improving the ability to chew. Because they preserve bone in the jaw and restore lip-support, implant-supported dentures also help maintain facial structures and minimize wrinkles.
Your visit begins with an evaluation of your needs, dental history and treatment goals. The Sleep Better BCS team can explain whether implant supported dentures is appropriate for your situation and review next steps.
Suitability depends on your oral health, symptoms and individual needs. An in-person evaluation in our College Station office is the best way to determine whether implant supported dentures should be part of your care plan.
