Implant-supported dentures are a modern and effective solution for patients who have lost multiple teeth and are looking for a stable, long-lasting replacement option. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums and can sometimes slip or cause discomfort, implant-supported dentures are anchored directly to dental implants. Dr. Bennett Packard, Dr. Mark Walker and Dr. Matthew Dunn at Creekside Dental specialize in this advanced restorative treatment, offering patients a way to regain their smile and confidence.
The Implant-Supported Denture Process
The process begins with the placement of dental implants, which are small titanium posts surgically inserted into the jawbone. These implants act as artificial tooth roots and provide a strong foundation for the dentures. Over time, the implants fuse with the bone in a process called osseointegration, ensuring stability and preventing bone loss. Once the implants have fully integrated, our dentists will attach a custom-made denture that securely snaps onto the implants. This results in a natural-looking and functional set of teeth that allow you to eat, speak and smile with confidence.
