Implant overdentures are a type of denture that is supported by dental implants, offering a more stable and secure fit than traditional removable dentures. This type of restoration is ideal for patients who are missing most or all of their teeth but want to avoid the discomfort and instability of traditional dentures.
The procedure begins with placing dental implants into the jawbone, which will serve as anchors for the overdenture. Once the implants have integrated with the bone, the overdenture is designed to fit over the implants, providing improved retention and stability.
Implant overdentures provide several benefits over traditional dentures, including improved chewing efficiency, reduced bone resorption, and enhanced comfort. Patients can experience a more natural feel and better confidence while speaking and eating.
Implant overdentures are an excellent solution for patients looking to regain full oral function and aesthetics while avoiding the need for adhesive creams or worrying about dentures shifting.
