Those who have missing teeth may turn to traditional dentures to replace them. While traditional dentures can be effective in restoring people’s ability to smile and speak with confidence, over time, they can become loose and cause them discomfort. This is because the jawbone is not being stimulated with traditional dentures.

In order for people to maintain good jawbone volume and health, they should consider replacing their missing teeth with implant supported dentures in Charlotte, NC. Here is how implant supported dentures give people a more stable smile than traditional dentures.

How Do Implant Supported Dentures In Charlotte, NC Give Me A More Stable Smile Than Traditional Dentures?

Traditional dentures are designed and made to merely sit on top of patients’ gums and do not provide any jawbone stimulation. Implant supported dentures, on the other hand, not only provide better stability to the patients smile, the dental implants in this restorative procedure stimulate the patient’s jawbone. This is because dental implant posts act like natural tooth roots, stimulating the jawbone so that it is healthy and strong.

In an implant supported dentures procedure, two or more dental implants are strategically and accurately placed in the patient’s jawbone. Since no two people have the same exact smile, each patient’s procedure is custom planned so that they get the exact new smile they need and deserve.

Once the dental implants have permanently fused with the patient’s jawbone, and the denture is placed on top of them, they are able to keep the denture from moving around or even falling out of the patient’s mouth. With implant supported dentures, patients will be able to eat, speak, and smile without having to worry about their dentures slipping and causing them discomfort.
