If you’re missing one or more teeth, you know how it can affect your self-confidence and other aspects of your daily life, such as eating and speaking. Implant dentures are the most effective tooth replacement solution—and they’re designed to be a permanent fix. At Parkside Dental, we feature dental implants as a fully functional restorative solution.
Implant dentures are a permanent solution to missing teeth. Implant fixtures fuse directly to the jawbone, providing the most stable option for maintaining your oral health. These dentures remain in the mouth, so there’s no need to take them out for cleaning. Simply brush and floss as you would your natural teeth and attend biannual dentist visits at our Detroit office.
Many of our patients report better confidence after getting permanent dentures. With implant-supported dentures, you can smile, speak, and eat with confidence. Dental implants act much like natural tooth roots to provide the stimulation your jawbone needs to stay healthy. Compared to traditional dentures, there are many benefits to opting for implanted dentures such as:
To begin the dental implant process, schedule a consultation with one of our expert implant dentists. They’ll examine your teeth, gums, and jaw to determine if you are a candidate for implant dentures. Your dentist will explain the implant process in greater detail, and you will have an opportunity to ask any questions you may have.
Once you have been approved for and received the dental implants, we will schedule your implant surgery. Our dentists utilize state-of-the-art technology to ensure the perfect placement of your new teeth.
Your jaw will need three to six months to heal from surgery. This allows the titanium posts to fully fuse to the jawbone. Be gentle with your new teeth during this time, and follow the instructions of your dentist after your procedure.
Once your jaw and teeth have healed, all you need to do to take care of your new dentures is to brush and floss your teeth the same way you would with natural teeth and visit our Westland dental office every six months.
Dental implants last for decades or even for a lifetime with proper care. They’re made from high-quality, durable materials that integrate naturally with your jawbone. Implants are sturdy, and won’t shift or slide as you eat, speak, or smile.
To ensure your implants last as long as possible, a good oral hygiene routine is essential. Dental implants don’t require any special care beyond daily brushing and flossing, so they’re easy to keep up with.
Dentures are considered a restorative dentistry service, so your dental insurance may cover part of the cost of treatment. Our goal is to provide each patient with the highest quality of dental care at a reasonable price, and we never want a patient to forgo treatment because the cost is a concern.
We’ll work with you to maximize the benefits of your insurance plan, and help you explore payment and financing options to ensure a healthy and beautiful smile fits into your budget.
