Implant-Retained Dentures with Mini Implants

Ill-fitting dentures can be uncomfortable, loose, and they can make you want to hide your smile. That is why here at Flossophy Dental in Edmonton, AB, we offer implant-retained dentures. These dentures are stabilized in the mouth using mini dental implants, so they stay put and slow down bone degeneration.

Implant-retained dentures create a strong and stable base for dentures. The implants are inserted into the bone sockets, so the dentures will not only be solid, but bone degeneration is slowed down. This means that the dentures will fit well for a long time. In addition, many dentures are able to be made to fit them, so a patient will most likely be able to keep their current dentures.

To create this stable base, we insert four to six mini dental implants along the upper or lower gumline. Since the mini implants are about half the size of traditional-sized implants, there is no surgical procedure needed. This means the dentures are often able to be clipped in during the same day.

The dentures are made to easily clip in so that patients can take them in and out on their own. You will no longer have to worry about your dentures moving around when you eat, smile, talk, or laugh.

If you are looking for dentures you can feel confident in, implant-retained dentures may be what you need. To schedule an appointment with Flossophy Dental, call our Edmonton, AB office at (780) 306-9333 or visit our website, www.flossophydental.ca. 

Full and Partial Dentures in Edmonton, AB

When you are missing multiple teeth, chewing, talking, smiling, and laughing can become difficult. Your facial structure may also make you look older than you are. For those who want to replace missing teeth, here at Flossophy Dental in Edmonton, AB, we offer multiple kinds of dentures.

Dentures are a popular and durable option for tooth replacement. They are a set of new teeth that are able to be taken in and out of your mouth. Whether you are missing a few teeth or many, we have an option for you.

Dentures are created to look just like your old smile. Some dentures may even enhance your smile! We offer partial dentures and full dentures. Our full dentures are able to be placed conventionally or immediately.

Depending on your situation, you may want your new smile placed immediately. A full set of dentures is then constructed and placed into your mouth immediately after any needed extractions are performed. While this is ideal for those who do not want to spend time without teeth, the dentures will need to be refitted in the future. When gums heal from extractions, they shrink. Conventionally placed dentures wait until the gums are healed before they are placed. This ensures a proper fit.

Partial dentures are for when there are just a few teeth missing. They are adhered to your teeth like a bridge and only these types of dentures are removable.

If dentures sound like the right option for you, come see us for a consultation. To schedule with Flossophy Dental in our Edmonton, AB office, call us at (780) 306-9333 or visit our website,www.flossophydental.ca.
