For anyone who has lost all of their teeth, implant-supported dentures from Love Your Smile in Kelowna may sound too good to be true: dentures that are attached to the jaw, and surpass traditional dentures in appearance and functionality.
Implant-supported dentures are already worn successfully by hundreds of thousands of people. If you hate your conventional dentures, they be just what your need.
As you may know, a dental implant is a titanium post that is placed in the jaw, where it fuses with the bone. A single post can support a single artificial tooth. Multiple posts, strategically placed, can support a set of dentures.
Implant-supported dentures have a number of advantages over traditional dentures:
- More stable. Because they are attached to titanium posts that have fused with the jaw, they’re more stable and provide greater biting and chewing power.
- Natural in appearance. They look more like natural teeth, and are easier to care for.
- Built to last. Because they are physically attached to the jaw, implants are long-lasting.
- Prevents bone recession. With traditional dentures, the bone around missing tooth roots begin to deteriorate. The titanium posts replace some of the tooth roots, so the bone is preserved.
Implant-supported dentures can transform your life, and they are among the procedures available at Love Your Smile in Kelowna. People from Mission, V1Y 8B7, and V1W 3C6 also come to us for complete restorative dentistry. Call our office to schedule an appointment today!
