Replacement Options for All Teeth

If you are missing all of your teeth, there is a good chance that you are looking to replace them. One of your options is to be fit with traditional dentures. This type of dentures is removable and it rests directly on top of your gums. Many patients find eating and speaking with this type of dentures to be difficult. Furthermore, they are prone to falling out of your mouth. Implant-supported dentures offer a much better option. Full mouth dental implants are utilized in this option, to support either a fixed bridge or a removable overdenture.

Implant-supported dentures make tasks such as eating and speaking as easy as it was with your natural teeth. And because they are secured into your mouth with implants, there is no need to worry about this type of dentures falling out of your mouth. In order to support either a fixed bridge or a removable overdenture, you will need to have anywhere from 4-8 implants placed per arch. The dentist will discuss with you which type of implant-supported dentures are right for your needs.
