Dental Implant Options

Dental Implants
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for artificial teeth like crowns, bridges, or dentures. Implants look, feel, and function like real teeth, helping maintain bone health and facial structure. With proper care, they offer a long-lasting, stable solution for restoring chewing, speech, and smile confidence.

Full-Mouth Dental Implants
Often known as All-on-4 implants, full-mouth dental implants are a comprehensive solution for replacing all missing or failing teeth in the upper, lower, or both arches. Once multiple titanium implants are placed in the jawbone, a fixed or removable full set of prosthetic teeth is securely attached. Full-mouth implants restore your natural appearance, chewing function, and speech, while preserving bone health. It's a long-lasting, stable alternative to traditional dentures, offering comfort, durability, and improved quality of life.

Implant-Retained Dentures
Implant-retained dentures are securely anchored to dental implants placed in the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures, they offer greater stability, comfort, and chewing efficiency. The implants act as artificial tooth roots, preventing bone loss and keeping the denture firmly in place without adhesive. This solution is ideal for patients seeking a long-term, natural-feeling alternative to removable dentures, improving both function and confidence in speaking and eating.
Implant-Retained Dentures
Dental Implants vs. Dentures
Dental implants and dentures are solutions for missing teeth but differ in design and function. Dental implants are permanent, surgically placed in the jawbone, providing stability and preserving bone health. They look and feel like natural teeth and require minimal maintenance. Dentures are removable appliances that rest on the gums, often used when multiple teeth are missing.
While more affordable initially, dentures may require periodic adjustments and do not prevent jawbone deterioration like implants. Implants offer a longer-lasting, more secure solution, though at a higher upfront cost.
