At Liberty Dentistry, we're not just about smiles; we're about changing lives with world-class dentistry in a hometown setting. Led by Dr. Greg Moses, our clinic in Liberty, NC, combines the warmth of a close-knit community with the innovation of modern dental technology. Specializing in implant-supported dentures, we offer our patients a perfect blend of comfort and advanced dental solutions.
Why Choose Implant Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures provide a stable and secure fit, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums, implant-supported dentures are anchored to the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure. At Liberty Dentistry, our use of cutting-edge 3D dentistry ensures precise and efficient treatment, making the process smoother and more comfortable for our patients.
What Are the Benefits of Implant Supported Dentures?
Implant supported dentures offer numerous advantages over traditional dentures, making them a preferred choice for individuals seeking a reliable and long-term solution for missing teeth. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Improved Stability and Comfort: Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, implant supported dentures are anchored to the jawbone, which provides a stable foundation, reducing movement and slippage.
- Enhanced Chewing Ability: Patients can enjoy a wider variety of foods, as these dentures restore nearly full chewing ability, improving nutrition and overall quality of life.
- Preservation of Jawbone and Facial Structure: Implant supported dentures help prevent bone loss that typically follows tooth loss, maintaining the natural structure of the face and jaw.
- Better Oral Health: Since these dentures do not require reducing adjacent teeth, as with conventional bridges, more of your natural teeth are preserved, promoting better long-term oral health.
- Increased Confidence and Quality of Life: With a secure fit, patients feel more confident and comfortable while speaking, laughing, and eating in social situations.
What Happens During and After Treatment?
During Treatment:
- Initial Consultation and Planning: The process begins with a thorough examination, including X-rays or 3D scans, to assess your bone density and plan the implant placement.
- Implant Placement: Under local anesthesia, the implants are surgically placed into the jawbone. The number of implants varies based on the denture's design.
- Healing and Osseointegration: After placement, a period of healing (usually a few months) is required for the implants to integrate with the bone, a process known as osseointegration.
- Denture Fabrication and Fitting: While the implants heal, the permanent dentures are crafted. Once healing is complete, the dentures are attached to the implants, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit.
After Treatment:
- Recovery and Adjustment: Initial discomfort and swelling may occur but typically subside within a few days. Adjusting to the new dentures may take a few weeks.
- Follow-up Visits: Regular check-ups are necessary to adjust the fit and check the health of the implants and surrounding tissues.
- Care and Maintenance: Although durable, implant supported dentures require good oral hygiene practices and regular dental visits to ensure their longevity and performance.
Who is a Candidate for Implant Supported Dentures?
Candidates for implant supported dentures typically include individuals who:
- Have lost most or all of their teeth: These dentures are an ideal solution for those who have significant tooth loss and are looking for a more stable alternative to traditional dentures.
- Possess Adequate Jawbone Density: Sufficient bone density is crucial to support the implants. If bone loss has occurred, bone grafting might be required to proceed.
- Are in Good General Health: Successful implant surgery requires good overall health. Conditions like uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking may affect the healing process and success of the implants.
- Seek Long-Term Solutions: Patients looking for a durable and long-lasting replacement for missing teeth often find implant supported dentures to be an excellent investment.
- Have Issues with Traditional Dentures: Those who experience discomfort, poor fit, or difficulty eating with conventional dentures may benefit significantly from the stability and functionality of implant supported dentures.
