At Vitelli Comprehensive Dentistry, we understand the importance of a full, functional smile. If you’re missing several teeth or even all of your teeth, implant-supported dentures offer a stable and effective solution. These dentures combine the convenience of removable dentures with the stability and function of dental implants, providing you with a comfortable and natural-looking smile.

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures are a type of overdenture that is anchored to dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, these dentures snap onto implants surgically placed into the jawbone. This provides a much more secure fit, reducing the risk of slipping or discomfort while speaking or eating.

Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures

  • Enhanced Stability: Implant-supported dentures are securely attached to dental implants, eliminating the slipping or shifting often associated with traditional dentures.
  • Improved Comfort: With implants anchoring the dentures, there’s less pressure on the gums, making them more comfortable to wear.
  • Better Functionality: These dentures allow for more natural chewing and speaking, restoring much of the function you may have lost with missing teeth.
  • Preservation of Jawbone: Dental implants help stimulate and preserve the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
  • Natural Appearance: Implant-supported dentures are custom-made to look and feel like your natural teeth, enhancing your smile and overall facial structure.

Our Implant-Supported Denture Process

At Vitelli Comprehensive Dentistry, we begin with a comprehensive dental exam to determine if implant-supported dentures are the best option for you. Dr. Adam Vitelli will evaluate your oral health, take detailed images, and develop a personalized treatment plan.

  • Implant Placement: If you’re a good candidate, dental implants will be surgically placed into your jawbone. These implants act as the anchors for your dentures.
  • Healing Period: After implant placement, a healing period is necessary to allow the implants to fuse with the bone, creating a strong foundation.
  • Denture Fitting: Once healing is complete, your custom-made dentures will be fitted and attached to the implants, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.
  • Follow-Up Care: Regular check-ups and maintenance are important to ensure the long-term success of your implant-supported dentures.
