The structure of Implant-Supported Dentures is exactly as the name sounds, they’re a full denture supported by dental implants. The implants themselves are typically titanium posts that are placed inside the jawbone to keep the dentures in place, making them incredibly stable for dental functions like talking and chewing. For these implants, typically four to six of these rod-like implants are placed along the upper or lower jaw. This is different from regular dentures as with traditional dentures the suction aspect that keeps them in place relies solely on adhesives and gum suction.
With Implant-Supported Dentures, patients won’t have to deal with discomfort or irritation that is caused by traditional dentures. They can enjoy regular meals and speak or laugh confidently without worrying about their dentures slipping or falling out.
Traditionally, regular dentures can last between 5-7 years before needing repair or replacement with assisted care. Implant-Supported Dentures can survive up to 10 years or more without repair or replacement. There’s also an inexpensive renewal every 2 years that is required to assist in replacing the rubber fitting. This fitting is needed to support the denture and help fix it onto the implants.
If you attend regular dental checkups and care for your Implant-Supported Dentures they may even last a lifetime.
After the Implant-Supported Dentures are inserted inside the jaw of the patient, the next stage is something all patients experience and this is called osseointegration. This is where the bone fuses with the implants to ensure the success of the dental restoration process. The implant functions the same as natural tooth roots within the jaw. After three to six months, the patient will be ready to get permanent dentures affixed to the implants if everything is monitored and goes well.
Even if you’ve had regular dentures for years you can still opt for Implant-Supported Dentures. People who’ve used traditional dentures are the likely candidates and appreciate the remarkable benefits of having a stable dental restoration.
In some cases, the dentist can use the existing dentures as a fixed temporary option as the patient recovers from the implants. However, if the patient has been missing their natural teeth for too long, they may have experienced some form of bone loss, meaning that a bone graft procedure will be required in order to place the implants successfully. At D3 Clinic we collaborate with our clinic and expert surgeons to achieve the best possible result.
The goal of our clinic is to provide a friendly, personalised and caring service with the highest level of general, cosmetic and specialist dental treatments.
