IMPLANT SUPPORTED DENTURES

Missing teeth can make everyday activities like eating, speaking, and smiling more difficult than they should be. Dentures offer a reliable way to restore both function and confidence.

At The Mint Dental, Dr. Damien Armstrong provides custom dentures designed for comfort, stability, and a natural-looking smile.

Advantages of Implant-Supported Dentures

Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, implant-supported dentures are secured to dental implants, offering greater stability, comfort, and long-term oral health benefits.

Greater Stability

Implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implants placed in the jawbone, keeping them securely in place without slipping or shifting.

Improved Chewing Ability

Because they are fixed to implants, these dentures allow for stronger biting force and make it easier to enjoy a wider variety of foods.

Preserves Jawbone Health

Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, helping prevent the bone loss that commonly occurs with missing teeth and traditional dentures.

A Closer Look At Implant Supported Dentures

Dentures are a reliable solution for replacing multiple missing teeth and restoring everyday comfort. After taking precise measurements of your mouth, Dr. Armstrong creates custom dentures designed to fit securely and complement your natural smile.

Whether you need a full or partial denture, modern designs allow for a more comfortable fit and a natural appearance. The result is a restored smile that helps you eat, speak, and smile with confidence again.

Steps of Implant Supported Dentures

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation with Dr. Armstrong. During this visit, we evaluate your oral health, review digital imaging of your jawbone, and determine if implant-supported dentures are the right solution for your needs.

Next, small titanium dental implants are placed in the jawbone to serve as secure anchors for your dentures. These implants act like artificial tooth roots, providing a stable foundation for your new smile.

Over the next few months, the implants naturally fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. This creates a strong, permanent base that helps support your dentures and maintain jawbone health.

Once healing is complete, Dr. Armstrong designs and attaches your custom denture to the implants. The final restoration is crafted to look natural, fit comfortably, and allow you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
