There’s an old saying about not appreciating the things we have until they’re gone. That is usually true with people who have lost their teeth: a strong set of teeth is invaluable. But we have good news! Implant-supported dentures from Wildflower Dental in Sun City AZ are like getting them back.
Unlike conventional dentures, implant-supported dentures are attached to titanium posts that have been inserted into the jaw. The unique properties of titanium allow it to fuse easily with human bone to create a solid foundation for supporting dentures.
It usually takes four implants to support one dental arch. The implants actually fortify the bone to minimize or prevent bone recession, an unfortuonate but common after-effect of lost teeth.
Since they are connected directly to the jaw bone, implant-supported dentures are very stable: they won’t slip off the gums like conventional dentures can. They are strong enough to allow you to eat just about anything: all the foods you have always enjoyed.
Dental implants have become the tooth replacement option of choice for millions of Americans. At Wildflower Dental in Sun City AZ we offer single tooth implants, and implant-supported dentures. We’ve placed them in patients throughout Peoria, Surprise, and Sun City West, who like our all-inclusive pricing, lifetime warranty, free second opinions, and in-office discount plan. Please give our office a call to schedule an appointment today!
