Are Dental Implants Better than Dentures?

Are multiple teeth replacements better than dentures?

Multiple tooth replacement implants are synthetic substitutes for natural teeth that are life changing for thousands of people who have had to suffer problems associated with missing teeth or full or partial dentures that do not fit well. For years, people have put up with the inconvenience of using dentures to provide them with some sort of normalcy when it comes to simply eating and smiling. These days, regular dentures are almost becoming a thing of the past for those who want fixed replacement teeth in the form of dental implants.  However, for those that dentures offers the best solution, Custom Dentures offer a much more comfortable and aesthetic solution.

The advantages of dental implants

Dental implants that are fixed in the place of lost teeth serve:

• To restore the look, feel, and functioning of natural teeth
• To make you look better
• To make you feel better
• To increase your ability to chew, enjoy, and finally digest your food. 

Your speech and ability to chew can be made difficult when several, or all your teeth, are absent. Replacing multiple teeth using a series of dental implants, attached by a bridge, offers a far more permanent alternative than the use of removable dentures.

The new bridge can take all the normal pressure that strong natural teeth do naturally. This will allow you to have along term solution that lets you eat what you wish. 

Benefits of multiple teeth replacement versus removable dentures

• It preserves the jawbone and general facial appearance.
• Only normal cleaning and flossing need to be used.
• Replacement will last decades if looked after with care.
• It is a stable, secure solution that gives you a normal look and function.

res can be made to suit the patient’s mouth but they still need to be removed and do not offer the strength and stability of multiple teeth replacement using the dental implants and bridge procedure. Dr. VanderMolen takes great care to create the best-fitting, best-looking custom dentures for each individual.  Custom Dentures offer a much more natural look than standard dentures, giving you a great result for a price that works for your budget.
