Implant-supported dentures are an excellent solution to replace missing teeth because they offer a blend of stability, functionality, and aesthetics. This tooth replacement works by securing a full or partial denture onto dental implants surgically placed in your jawbone.
Implant-Supported Dentures in Marysville, WA
Implant-supported dentures are secured by several dental implants placed directly in your jawbone. The implants act like the roots of your natural teeth and create a stable foundation for natural-looking customized dentures.
Over several months, a healing process called osseointegration occurs as the implants heal and fuse with your jawbone. The implants become a permanent part of your dental anatomy and provide unparalleled stability for your dentures.
The Benefits of Implant Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer numerous benefits, including:
- Improved stability and comfort compared to traditional dentures
- Enhanced chewing and speaking ability
- Prevention of jawbone loss that occurs after tooth loss
- A more natural fit and feel than removable dentures
- A fuller, more youthful facial appearance
