When you’ve lost all of your teeth on the upper or lower dental ridge, Dr. Okoniewski can help you reinvent your smile with a custom-made denture. Complete dentures rest on a comfortable, gum-colored base, and the replacement teeth are crafted from durable, realistic-looking dental porcelain. With the help of one or a pair of complete dentures, you can once again bite, chew, speak, and flash your smile with joy and confidence!
Implant-Supported Dentures
Typically, dentures are created to fit snugly and comfortably on your dental ridge, mimicking the look and feel of a healthy set of teeth. For many patients, however, Dr. Okoniewski may recommend implant-supported dentures, which are supported by a series of dental implants that act as prosthetic teeth roots. The implant posts are placed into the jawbone and the denture is attached to the posts through connective abutments.
When anchored to dental implants, dentures are nearly as stable as natural teeth secured to healthy teeth roots. The implant posts also contribute to a healthy blood flow to the jawbone when they’re stimulated by biting and chewing, which improves your long-term dental health.
