Implant Supported | Implant Retained Dentures Arizona: Mesa, Gilbert, East Valley The Benefits of Implant Retained Dentures
Nothing can be more irritating, frustrating or uncomfortable than a loose or ill fitting denture. Dental implants improve the support, retention and stability of a full or complete denture. Implant supported partial or full dentures stabilize the removable denture in place reducing the slip and movement when speaking or eating. No more adhesive nightmares to worry about! The concept of implant supported over-dentures is not new, over-dentures originally were used with remaining tooth roots sticking up through the gum to stabilize and retain the denture. Retaining the tooth roots also helps to preserve the jaw bone. When a tooth or teeth are lost, bone loss also occurs. Over time a toothless jaw battered by a denture can sustain substantial bone loss. Dental implants, like teeth, preserve the jawbone. Placing dental implants as soon as possible can help avoid potential bone loss. Dental implants are artificial teeth roots made from titanium screws that are placed in the upper or lower jaw that stabilize the removable denture. Depending on the number and location of the implants, the denture can be completely retained, supported and stabilized by the implants. During an implant procedure, a series of implants can be placed in the upper jaw that could enable the elimination of the palate of a full-denture. Implants in the lower would make a lower full denture more stable and retentive. There are many different clips, snaps, magnets, and bars that help in improving the comfort of full dentures. One piece mini-implants can be used as a less expensive option to stabilize a moving denture. The surgical procedure of these mini-implants can be done with minimal conservative techniques Conservative surgical and prosthetic treatments should always be considered. A thorough exam both clinically and radiographicly should be preformed. A cat-scan x-ray of the jaw could be necessary to determine the quantity and quality of the bone. Using dental implant imaging software the exact location, size and number of implants can be placed. Using this software a surgical stencil can be fabricated to enable a guide that not only creates a minimally invasive procedure but also reduces surgical time.
