Implant Retained Dentures Brisbane | Zen Dental Studio

If you need to repace an arch of teeth, then dentures retained by implants are a durable and effective option. Speak to our dentists today. What are implant dentures? Implant dentures are either fixed or removable dentures that are supported by dental implants which are inserted into the jaw bone. Why are implant dentures better? Many people who have full or partial dentures find them extremely uncomfortable, loose, wobbly, and cannot chew all foods with them. They also tend to get more ulcers due to the friction from the moving dentures. They often only wear these dentures for social occasions or chew semi-solid or blended foods which can have long lasting effects on their overall health. Implant dentures are dentures supported or retained by dental implants which do not allow movement of the dentures and thus allow much better comfort, aesthetics and chewing ability. What is the process for getting implant supported dentures? If you have an existing denture, it may be possible to convert this into an implant denture. The process involves placement of dental implants in the jaw through minor surgery and then attaching a denture to these implants. The attachments can be fixed or removable. The denture can be made of acrylic or ceramic or other materials and depending on the number of implants required, it can be attached to the dental implants. And with quick healing technology you can go back to smiling and eating again in no time. Who is a good candidate for implant dentures? Any person who is currently wearing dentures or who may need removal of teeth and replacement with dentures is a good candidate. A thorough examination, medical history, dental records and plan is needed. Is All on 4 Dental Implants the same? One form of treatment modality is all-on-4 where a denture is attached to 4 dental implants. Occasionally, 2 or 3 dental implants may be sufficient whereas sometimes, more than 4 dental implants may be a more structurally stronger option.
