The Modern Solution To Denture Discomfort
Traditional dentures have long been used to replace missing teeth, but they’re not without their challenges. Many patients experience slipping, clicking, sore spots, or a bad fit that becomes worse over time. These issues often stem from the fact that traditional dentures sit on top of the gums and don’t address the root cause of instability: bone loss.
At North Tampa Periodontics & Implant Dentistry, we offer a more secure and lasting alternative. Implant-supported dentures combine the affordability of dentures with the stability of dental implants, providing a confident, comfortable solution that supports both your smile and your long-term oral health.
What Makes Implant-Supported Dentures Different
Rather than resting on the gums, implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implants—small titanium posts placed into the jawbone. These implants serve as artificial tooth roots and provide a strong, stable foundation for your dentures. Once the implants heal, your custom denture attaches securely, eliminating the common frustrations of traditional options.
Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures
Patients who switch from traditional to implant-supported dentures often notice a dramatic improvement in comfort and confidence.
Here’s what sets them apart:
- No slipping or adhesives: Your denture stays firmly in place, even when eating or speaking.
- Improved chewing power: Enjoy a wider variety of foods without discomfort.
- Natural appearance: Custom-designed dentures blend beautifully with your smile.
- Bone preservation: Implants stimulate the jawbone to help prevent bone loss.
- Long-term stability: Because implants help preserve your jawbone, your denture maintains a secure fit with fewer adjustments over time.
- Enhanced confidence: Speak, laugh, and live freely without worry.
