Dental Implants- The Best Way to Stabilise and retain your Denture
Achieving a stable, comfortable, and functional smile is crucial for anyone using dentures. At Azure Dental, we offer implant retained dentures as a highly effective solution for denture stabilisation. This advanced dental treatment provides a secure fit and natural feel, enhancing both the aesthetics and function of your dentures. Read on to discover how implant retained dentures can transform your smile and improve your quality of life.
What Are Implant Retained Dentures?
Implant retained dentures, also known as overdentures, are a type of denture that is supported and stabilised by dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures that rely on suction and adhesives, implant retained dentures are anchored to implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This provides a more secure and comfortable fit, preventing the common issues associated with conventional dentures, such as slipping and irritation.
The Benefits of Implant Retained Dentures
Choosing implant retained dentures for denture stabilisation offers numerous benefits, including:
Improved Stability and Comfort: With implants acting as anchors, your dentures will remain securely in place, providing a stable and comfortable fit.
Enhanced Chewing and Speaking: Stable dentures allow you to chew and speak more confidently, without worrying about your dentures shifting.
Natural Look and Feel: Implant retained dentures look and feel more like natural teeth, boosting your confidence and improving your overall appearance.
Bone Preservation: Dental implants help stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that can occur with traditional dentures.
Durability: With proper care, implant retained dentures can last many years, making them a long-term investment in your oral health.
The Implant Retained Dentures Process
The process of getting implant retained dentures involves several steps, each designed to ensure the best possible outcome:
Initial Consultation: Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at Azure Dental. Our skilled team will assess your oral health, discuss your needs and goals, and determine if implant retained dentures are right for you.
Implant Placement: If you are a suitable candidate, the next step involves the surgical placement of dental implants into your jawbone. This procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia to ensure your comfort.
Healing Period: After the implants are placed, a healing period of several months is required. During this time, the implants will fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseo-integration, providing a strong foundation for your dentures.
Denture Attachment: Once the implants have fully integrated with the jawbone, your custom-made dentures will be securely attached to the implants. Our team will ensure that the dentures fit comfortably and look natural.
Implant Retained DentureCaring for Your Implant Retained Dentures
Proper care is essential to maintaining the longevity and functionality of your implant retained dentures. Here are some tips to keep your dentures in top condition:
Daily Cleaning: Clean your dentures daily with a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive denture cleaner. Be sure to clean around the implants as well to prevent plaque build-up.
Regular Check-ups: Visit Azure Dental regularly for check-ups and professional cleanings. Our team will monitor the condition of your dentures and implants, addressing any issues promptly.
Healthy Lifestyle: Maintain a balanced diet and avoid habits that can damage your dentures, such as chewing on hard objects or using your teeth as tools.
