It can be a relief to show off a full smile again after losing all of your upper or lower teeth. However, patients who worry about adjusting to a denture may feel reluctant to move forward with care. Our practice offers hybrid dentures, custom restorations that are kept in place with four to six dental implants. With this treatment approach, you enjoy a stable denture that is easier to adjust to, offers more bite support, and even helps you avoid jawbone resorption!
Should I Consider Hybrid Dentures?
Dentures supported with dental implants help patients feel more comfortable after tooth loss. The implants put in place to hold your restoration will mean you never have to depend on epoxies or suction to keep it in place. As a result, you can have an easier time speaking, laughing, and eating after your procedure. In addition to giving you more bite strength, your implants will stimulate your jawbone, protecting it against deterioration, which is a concern that grows over time after tooth loss.
Treatment With Hybrid Dentures
We perform a thorough review with advanced digital imaging technology to make sure you are a good candidate for dental implant placement. This information also tells us what angles and positions the implants should be in to best support your denture. Different factors will affect how many implants we recommend to keep your appliance in place.
Your smile restoration with a hybrid denture will involve both an implant placement procedure and an appointment to secure your custom restoration. In between these treatments, your body will heal and the jawbone tissues that surround your implants will fuse to them, creating a remarkably strong hold. In addition to carefully planning your implant placement, your dentist will ensure that your denture is crafted to provide a comfortable fit while also fully restoring your appearance.
