The replacement of missing teeth has never been so predictable and comfortable. We can now replace teeth without “cutting” down other healthy teeth and without using removable dentures. Modern dental implants simulate natural teeth chewing abilities and are long lasting alternatives to dentures and bridges. Implants may seem to be expensive initially, but in the long term they are more economical than dentures or bridges which will have to be replaced several times during a patient’s lifetime.
In today's modern dentistry, the best acceptable solution to tooth loss is the dental implant. From the replacement of single missing tooth to extensive reconstruction and replacement of several or even all teeth, dental implants offer the healthiest and most intelligent solution.
In the past the replacement of multiple teeth was accomplished by using partial and full removable dentures. Chewing efficiency was severely compromised. A full denture patient loses 85% of their chewing ability. An implant supported overdenture can restore between 50% to 80% of chewing efficiency, depending on the number of implants used.
Denture Stabilization Using Dental Implants If you have dentures that are loose and unstable, hurt your gum and do not chew your food properly, dental implants can help. The dentures can be anchored to dental implants to provide better stability. Whether you have one, two or more teeth missing, have suffered bone loss or have denture problems, call Doctors Feuerstein and Garlitz at Creative Smiles and allow us to create a treatment plan that suits you.
