What Are Denture Implants?

If you’ve got dentures, it’s likely you’ve experienced the discomfort that can occur with frequent wear. This is why many people look for alternative options, such as denture implants. Denture implants are a supportive, comfortable replacement to traditional dentures. Not only are denture implants aesthetically pleasing, but they also eliminate common problems people may have with classic dentures.

What Are Denture Implants?

When it comes to replacing missing or damaged teeth, there are several options to consider. However, denture implants are one of the most common solutions. These type of implants hold your dentures in place for improved comfort and feel. If your loose-fitting dentures are causing you distress, then getting denture implants may be the best option for you. They’re extremely easy to care for, so there’s no need for cleansing tablets, adhesive, or special flossers.

The Benefits Of Denture Implants

There are many reasons people opt for dentures when researching denture implants, such as:

  • They can last a lifetime
  • Extremely natural looking
  • Alleviates the tendency to choke or gag thanks to the smaller, securer fit
  • Helps to maintain the jaw bone and face structure
  • They prevent bone loss that occurs when teeth are missing
  • Can prevent wrinkles around the mouth
  • No need for denture adhesive

One of the biggest benefits of denture implants is that your ability to eat normally will be restored. Classic dentures can be embarrassing and difficult during mealtimes, often people can even be afraid to eat in social situations. In fact, those with dentures can tend to miss out on key nutrients because they stick to soft foods. Fortunately, this isn’t the case with denture implants. With denture implants you’ll be able to eat whatever you want, without any repercussions.

Implant Retained Dentures vs Implant Supported Dentures

What are denture implants? Well, there are two types to consider. The first are implant retained dentures, attached to small implants in the jawbone to keep them in place. They’re a secure option, giving you more confidence when eating food and when in public, as you will have less difficulty with speaking, eating and swallowing.

Secondly, there are implant supported dentures. They are similar to implant retained dentures, but are permanently fixed in place by your dentist – so there’s no need to remove them and clean them each night. They will feel more like natural teeth, and are popular with those looking for implants but don’t wish to have all on 4 dental implants.

Are Denture Implants Right For Me?

I came to dental solutions with severe anxiety of dentists and Lauren was so helpful, kind and patient with me. For the first time in years I've found a dentist who I feel comfortable with. Thank you

I had a wisdom tooth extracted by Gavin after having toothache due to my tooth breaking. I was nervous as I had not had a tooth removed by injection before. Gavin was reassuring, explained the procedure fully and it was over quickly with no pain. All staff at the practice are caring, friendly and professional and I have been going for many years. I highly recommend Dental Solutions.

Can’t speak highly enough of this practice and in particular Lauren. 2 years ago I walked in and was so nervous I cried just as the sight of the chair. Her and the staff have been so patient and understanding and have worked with me to overcome my phobia. This week I had a filling and was absolutely fine, my family couldn’t believe it. Reception staff are lovely and really accommodating too. So glad I found them, I don’t dread the dentist anymore.

A really Five Star Dental Practice! Upon arrival I was greeted by their most friendly welcoming receptionists. it seems nothing is 'too much trouble' to them. Gavin is similarly very friendly and the surgery is kitted out with the most high-tech modern equipment. On my first visit Gavin examined my teeth and explained my options to me giving me his recommendation for treatment and reasons why. Their Co-ordinator prepared a detailed quote for my treatment and went through it in detail with me, ensuring I understood everything; she had plenty of time for me as a patient. From the outset I had complete confidence in entrusting them with my dental care and the final results are truly amazing. Gavin and Richard could not have been more professional and my treatment was made as painless as possible. Dental Solutions provide a truly outstanding service and I thank them for my new 'long lost' smile and renewed confidence, especially when dining out and talking with people. I can't recommend them too highly.

A first class experience from start to finish. Despite being fearful of visiting the dentist, Gavin put me at ease with his gentle unhurried manner. I was surprised at how relaxed I actually felt undergoing treatment for a crown and the removal/replacement of front teeth veneers. Having felt self conscious about my front teeth for a long time, I decided to have my old veneers replaced. The results were amazing and far exceeded my expectations. What Gavin achieved was nothing short of a work of art, boosting my confidence tenfold. The practice itself is very welcoming, the customer service excellent and the staff are all very friendly and kind. I cannot recommend this dental practise highly enough.

I recently needed some urgent treatment and after trying a couple of dentists in the area, dental solutions were the only dentist that agreed to see me, genuinely nobody else showed any interest in helping me. The receptionist I spoke to initially was super compassionate and understanding and did all she could to get me in asap. I saw Lauren for all of my appointments, and I’ve now had: a composite filling, root canal and emax crown and just yesterday had a wisdom tooth extracted. I don't know what Lauren does but I have had zero pain or discomfort with any treatments during and after. I'm extremely happy with the results of her work. She definitely knows her stuff and filled me with the utmost confidence whilst in the chair! I literally cant find any fault with any of the experiences I have had so far. They go the extra mile and do it with a smile. What more can you ask for?! Definitely my dentist for the foreseeable future! Thank you Lauren and everyone!

Had my initial consultation with Lauren, truly professional and extremely friendly. She explained all my options in detail and following discussions opted for veneers and can't wait to see the end result.
