How Do Dental Implants Work? Strengthen Your Smile with Implant-Retained Dentures

January 7, 2015

If you are missing teeth and are considering implant-retained dentures, you are certainly not alone. In fact, the majority of edentulous patients (those who are missing all of their teeth) would rather smile, eat, and speak more comfortably with dentures that were firmly held in place than worry about the hassles associated with removable false teeth. At JL Dental in Arnold, MO, Dr. Jonathan Mears and Dr. Laura Mears specialize in providing their patients with a full menu of restorative dentistryservices, including implant-retained dentures.

Reclaim Your Smile’s Form & Function

Dental implants have rapidly become the gold standard of tooth replacement options over the past few decades. While other restorative solutions do still provide sufficient biting power and aesthetics for some patients, many others find that nothing quite feels or looks like a natural tooth like dental implants. This is because a dental implant actually replaces your entire tooth’s missing structure, including the sturdy root within the jaw bone. With just a few tiny, biocompatible dental implants, our team can secure an entire arch of replacement teeth to your jaw. Unlike traditional dentures, these implant-retained dentures are firmly attached to your gums and jaw bone, allowing you to eat and speak with complete comfort and confidence.

Another benefit of implant-retained dentures is that they are incredibly lifelike in appearance. You don’t have to worry about slipping or clicking dentures when you speak, smile, or chew. They look and feel just like natural teeth; smiling openly in public and with friends has never felt so good.
