LOOK - NO MORE LOOSE DENTURES!!!
LOOSE DENTURES ARE A THING OF THE PAST - THANKS TO DENTAL IMLANTS AND IMPLANT OVERDENTURES.
2 - 4 Dental Implants, Standard Diameter required to stabilize a lower complete denture.
In some instances, a “custom bar” is made to provide cross-implant stabilization.
Retentive “Snaps” are fastened either directly to the dental implants or to the custom bar.
Retentive Housings inserted into the underside of the denture to provide the attachment.
Placing 2 Standard Dental Implants (or 4 Mini Dental Implants) is 100x better than a lower complete denture without implants.
4 Standard Dental Implants are 200x more retentive than a lower complete denture with no implants.
2 Standard Dental Implants with “Snaps” has the same retention as 4 “Mini Dental Implants” with o-ring attachments.
2 Dental Implants with snaps is considered the "Standard of Care" for denture patients.
Nylon Retentive Inserts will require maintenance (replacement) about every 12 months.
The Lower Denture may need “relines” as the bony ridge resorbs over time. This varies from patient to patient.
Professional Dental Cleanings are required to prevent bacterial accumulation, reduce biofilm, minimize inflammation and check your dentures.
Implant Overdentures that "Rock or Move" are no longer stable and will place harmful forces on the dental implants. This can lead to dental implant failure and implant loss.
