Aesthetic dentures

Dental prostheses are used for partial or complete tooth loss. They can be removed and reinserted into the oral cavity. However, traditional dentures are not perfect. Patients often complain that over time, they become loose, shift, or even start falling out. This is a result of gum deformation, which certainly causes significant discomfort in daily life.

Therefore, it is worth considering a different method of securing dentures than traditional adhesive. It is possible to attach dentures to implants, providing them with stable anchoring that eliminates slipping and denture dislodgment. If you have some of your own natural teeth, traditional dentures can be replaced with implants or a bridge, resulting in significantly improved stability for your new set of teeth.

We can distinguish between complete and partial dentures, and based on how they transfer forces to the bone, between settling and non-settling dentures.

Complete dentures are settling dentures and are used in cases of complete tooth loss. They are very similar to your natural teeth. However, over time, even a well-fitted denture settles and becomes increasingly loose because during chewing, forces are transferred to the bone through the mucous membranes, and this pressure causes bone resorption.

Dentures attached to implants increase their stability and provide you with greater comfort. The procedure involves implanting several implants onto which the denture is secured using special attachments. This is certainly a cost-effective solution, while guaranteeing a high level of daily comfort.
