Implant Supported Dentures Are a Step Above the Competition. Find out why!
Partial. Complete. Fixed. These are all forms of dentures that a dentist may talk to you about, depending on your individual situation. Dentures are one of the most popular forms of tooth replacement and one of the oldest. If you have used traditional dentures in the past which sat on your gums but were not comfortable or caused sores due to rubbing or a poor fit, you may be interested in learning more about “fixed (or “snap in”) dentures near me” as offered by Dr. Nima Afazlian and the team at My Dental and Implants in Glendale, Arizona. Fixed dentures provide a more stable and comfortable fit than conventional dentures. Let’s look at why!
The Role of Dental Implants
When you decide that a fixed denture is the route you will ultimately take, you will likely have already had a conversation with your dental professional. During your initial consultation, you would have learned that you will need to receive a set number of dental implants. The implants are surgically inserted directly into the jawbone, where they fuse/bond with the jawbone. What results are implants anchored into the jaw for a firm and durable hold. It is onto these implants that your fixed denture will “snap” onto.
Benefits of Fixed Dentures
Dentures supported by dental implants provide several benefits over traditional dentures, which rest directly on the gums. First, you never need to worry about a poor fit or dentures which rub sores into your gums. Implant-supported dentures do not rest directly on the gums but instead snap into dental implants. This ensures not only a comfortable fit but dentures that are strong and able to function as you need them. You will never have to worry about implant-supported dentures slipping and sliding around in your mouth or needing an application of denture adhesives.
