What are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Although you have 32 adult teeth, adults under 64 have an average of 24 remaining, with just under four percent having no natural teeth left. If you’re missing one or more teeth, you’re far from alone.

Thankfully, there are several options at Brook Trout Dental to replace missing adult teeth. Implant-support dentures are one popular option to restore your smile.

Implant-Supported Denture Benefits

Traditional dentures are the most affordable option to replace missing teeth, but they have many downsides. Sores on the gums, difficulty talking, and discomfort when eating are only a few examples.

Brook Trout Dental offers implant-supported dentures which provide many of the benefits of dental implants combined with the affordability of traditional dentures. This makes them an excellent choice for most people with missing teeth.

The benefits of implant-supported dentures include:

  • Preventing bone tissue loss, as the implants will stimulate your gums
  • A natural look and feel
  • Little to no adjustment period
  • Allowing you to care for your dentures the same way you would natural teeth
  • The ability to eat all of your favorite foods

If you’re missing only a few teeth, you won’t need a full denture arch. Instead, you could choose an implant-supported bridge that replaces only the teeth you have missing.

Other than the financial expense, there are no significant downsides to receiving implant-supported dentures. While this option costs significantly less than individual implants, it’s still more than traditional dentures. You will want to speak with your dental insurance to see if implant-supported dentures are covered.

Many People Are Candidates

Not everyone is a candidate for an implant-supported bridge or denture, but many are. You need to be in good general health and have adequate jawbone density to be a candidate. If your jawbone isn’t dense enough, bone grafting can sometimes be used. If bone grafting is used to support your implants, the process will take longer.

The best way to determine if you’re a candidate for implant-supported dentures in Casper is to have a consultation with your dentist. Only they can provide a definitive answer on your candidacy.

What To Expect During the Implant Process

The implant-supported denture process can take between two to seven months from start to finish. Your dentist will first develop a comprehensive plan tailored specifically for you and will provide a time estimation for completion.

First, you’ll undergo surgery to place the dental implants inside your jawbone. The implants will fuse or bond with the bone during the two to six-month healing process.

Once your implants have healed, our dentist at Brook Trout Dental will get a mold of your arch. If you’ve been wearing traditional dentures, the mold and creation process is the same. Once the dentures are finished, they’re sent to us. Our dentist will place them in your mouth and check that everything looks right.

If you experience any abnormal discomfort or symptoms after having your implant-supported dentures placed, you should contact your dentist right away.
