What Are Permanent Dentures?
Dentures are a custom-tailored oral appliance designed to replace one or several missing teeth that may be missing consecutively or non-consecutively in the upper or lower arch of the mouth. They are crafted based on impressions to seamlessly mirror the patient’s smile for a secure, comfortable fit that restores the form and function of the smile.
Understanding Permanent Dentures
In contrast to traditional dentures, dentures that are permanent are surgically implanted to serve as a lifelong smile restoration that cannot be removed or shifted. Permanent dentures are a multifaceted procedure. This process involves first surgically implanting posts into the jaw, followed by a healing period before the artificial teeth are placed to complete the restoration.
Types of Permanent Dentures
Permanent dentures can be used to replace one tooth, several teeth, or a full arch. As such, we offer several permanent denture options, including:
- Full permanent dentures to replace the complete upper or lower arch
- Permanent partial dentures to replace one or several non-consecutive teeth
- All-on-4 dentures using four implants to support a full arch of teeth
Benefits of Permanent Dentures
Experience lifelong comfort and functionality with permanent dentures. Unlike standard, removable dentures, permanent dentures pose virtually no risk of being misplaced, shifting, or falling out. They are made with durable, high-quality materials, allowing patients to restore full function and aesthetics, contributing to maximized confidence and oral health.
Preserve Your Oral Health
A missing tooth or teeth is more than a cosmetic dilemma. Tooth loss can compromise your overall oral health. Failing to replace a gap or an arch of teeth leads to loss of jawbone density, further tooth loss, and a higher risk of periodontal disease. Permanent dentures are the most effective treatment to mitigate these concerns.
Permanent Denture Implant Consultation
Permanent denture implants require a multi-step procedure. The treatment begins with an in-depth consultation to assess the patient’s oral health and jawbone density. For patients with insufficient jawbone density, a bone graft may be recommended prior to continuing to the next step of treatment.
Permanent Denture Implants Procedure
The permanent implant dentures process involves surgically implementing the titanium posts that act as tooth roots to support the artificial restorations. These posts are placed into the patient’s jaw and allotted up to six months to heal. Once they heal and fuse with the jawbone for maximum stability, the artificial tooth or teeth are connected.
Post-Treatment Care & Maintenance
Permanent dentures are the key to preserving your oral health. Following treatment, our team will provide you with detailed care instructions to streamline your healing while protecting the health of your mouth. In addition, a complete at-home oral hygiene routine and regular cleanings and check-ups are essential to protecting the health of your smile.
