Who Is a Candidate For Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures represent a modern and effective solution for individuals dealing with missing teeth or the frustrations of loose, traditional dentures. They offer a stable and secure alternative, providing the comfort and confidence that come with a fixed solution. Here’s how to determine if you’re a candidate for implant-supported dentures:

1. Free Consultation: The first step is to schedule a free consultation at our office. This initial meeting allows us to evaluate your specific dental needs and discuss your expectations for treatment.

2. CT Scan for Bone Density: To ensure the success of implant-supported dentures, a crucial factor is the density of your jawbone. We use a CT scan to assess the quality and quantity of bone available, which helps in planning the placement of the implants.

3. Suitability: Generally, anyone missing one or more teeth is a potential candidate for implant-supported dentures. These are especially beneficial for individuals who have experienced significant tooth loss and are looking for a more permanent, comfortable alternative to traditional dentures.

4. Benefits: Implant-supported dentures provide numerous advantages over conventional dentures, including improved stability, enhanced chewing ability, and a natural look and feel. They also help in preserving jawbone health by stimulating bone growth, similar to natural tooth roots.

If you’re currently struggling with missing teeth or are dissatisfied with the fit and feel of your traditional dentures, implant-supported dentures might be the right solution for you. By coming in for a free consultation, we can discuss how this treatment can specifically benefit you, taking into account your dental health, bone density, and overall treatment goals.
