Implanted dentures, or implant-supported dentures, are a great solution for those facing tooth loss. They preserve many important features of the mouth, including shape and appearance. At Augusta Family Dental, we offer services that deliver on our commitment to giving you the great smile you deserve.

 

This is why we offer implanted dentures at both our Hephzibah and Medical District offices. Contact us today to find out if implanted dentures fit your needs.

 

What are implanted dentures?

Implanted dentures, implant-supported dentures, or denture implants refer to a type of denture that is supported by dental implants. Unlike dentures that rest in your mouth, denture implants are supported by dental implants inserted in the jawbone. These implants go through the gums to support your new set of teeth. Denture implants can either be fixed or removable, but offer excellent resilience and functionality.

 

How do I know if I am a good fit for denture implants?

Our dentist will review all relevant dental and medical history, X-rays, and other factors to determine whether implanted dentures are the right choice for you. Important factors can include previous denture history and jawbone density. Contact us today to get started.

 

What does the denture implant procedure look like?

While specific details may vary depending on your situation, the general denture implant procedure includes:

 

 

• • Preparation for dental implant surgery, including removal of any decaying or damaged teeth, and ensuring that jawbone density is adequate

• • Placing the implant into the jawbone, allowing proper time for fusion (sometimes 3 to 6 months)

• • Dental impressions for the creation of dentures

• • Installation of dentures onto implants
