Perhaps you have heard or seen the dental industry’s advertising about dental implants. Most dentists in Wetaskiwin claim that dental implant dentures can change your life. Does this sound like hype? Exaggeration?
Let’s look at the facts about dental implant-anchored dentures in Wetaskiwin:
Chewing: An oral implant denture can restore up to 95 percent of normal chewing function. How important is chewing? Can you chew easily with your current full or partial denture? Can you bite apples? When was the last time you ate a raw carrot?
Fit: Implant-anchored dentures stay in place. An implant denture doesn’t slide around in your mouth and causes sores. Camrose implant denture wearers who exercise regularly, especially appreciate this benefit.
Appearance: How does your smile look? Can you smile confidently? How many Ponoka denture wearers love their smiles? Implant-anchored dentures look like natural teeth. They don’t move when you smile, eat, talk, bike, swim, dance, golf, or ski; you get the idea.
Bone health: When teeth are extracted, bone recession can occur over time (in fact, this happens in almost every case). Because a titanium implant is an artificial ‘tooth root’ inserted into your jaw bone, your bone has a better chance of staying healthy. If there are no other adverse conditions present, your jawbone should remain strong and dense, just as if the original tooth root were there.
If you hate your dentures, why don’t you come in for a consultation about dental implants and mini-implants? We can discuss all the particulars including procedure specifics, healing time and dental implant cost. Then you can decide for yourself if implant dentures will, as promised, change your life.
