Implant-supported dentures are certainly more costly than traditional, “gum-supported”
dentures. There is also a need for dental implant surgery to place the implants within the
jawbone which commands an additional cost. A period of healing can take anywhere from 3 to 6
months for the entire treatment to be completed from start to finish. You can continue wearing
your old dentures in the meantime.

These dentures are almost just as easy to look after as the traditional dentures. However, the
patient will need to have their implants and denture attachments checked by the dentist
regularly, usually from 6 to 12 months.

Unlike traditional dentures, implant-supported overdentures “snap” in place using special
attachments that connect them to dental implants. This makes the implant-supported dentures
much more stable and more comfortable to wear.

Dental implants can make excellent substitutes for roots of teeth and most patients that have
transitioned to implant-supported dentures report good results.

Usually, the process requires 4 steps – your initial exam and consultation, implant placement
appointment, impression taking appointment and delivery of your implant-supported denture.

The number of implants usually depends on the quality and quantity of bone present.

Typically, the upper denture will require at least 4 and the lower denture at least 2 implants to
work. In most denture cases though, it is the lower denture that needs implant retention and
support. Studies report the improvement of the chewing force by 300% with implant-supported
dentures.

Implants vs Dentures: Which team are you on?

Let’s say you’ve lost a tooth. Or maybe several. You’ve come to terms with it, and now you’re faced with a big decision: “Plates” or “Screwings”?

It’s a bit like choosing between a bicycle and a motorbike. Both will get you where you need to go — but they feel, look, and ride very differently.

So, let’s break it down. Light-heartedly, of course.

Team Dentures: Tried, tested, and (sometimes) slippery

Dentures have been around for centuries. Yes, centuries. George Washington had them (Okay, his were made of ivory and hippo teeth, but let’s not ...
