Overdenture

TIRED OF YOUR LOOSE DENTURES OR TEETH?

If uncomfortable dentures or retainers with false teeth aren’t for you, Overdentures might be the solution. A traditional removable denture rests directly on the gums and is only retained by the support of your jaws and gums. The pressure of these traditional dentures varies and some people, unfortunately, can never get used to functioning with them. There can also be restrictions to your eating habits since they are not very stable. However, Overdentures can eliminate the unwanted movement by having two or more implants placed, so that the denture sits over the dental implants, which provide support and stability to the denture. The denture remains in place using special attachments that allow it to stay in position over the dental implants.

Just like traditional dentures, dental implant-supported dentures should still be removed daily to clean the denture and gum area. Also, sleeping with dental implant-supported dentures in place at night is prohibited. The overdenture still has to be removed at night, just like a denture. It also looks very similar to a denture. However, there is another method, called the All on 4 Method (Attach link here) that allows you to keep your teeth in your mouth 24/7 just like natural teeth. Please take a look at the ALL on 4 Method. This technique is a nice improvement, allowing you to feel more confident and secure about your dentures. Like always, giving you the confidence needed to smile like never before.
