Living with multiple compromised teeth can be frustrating and devastating. Your nutrition suffers because you aren\u2019t able to properly chew the healthy foods you once enjoyed. Your self esteem suffers because you feel embarrassed about talking or smiling because of your smile. At this point, your situation can start to feel hopeless. However, you should know that there are solutions, and implant retained dentures in Herndon may be exactly what you need.<\/p>\n
What are Implant Retained Dentures?<\/p>\n
In many cases, dental implants can be used to support a denture. This process is known as \u201cAll-on-4\u201d because it only takes 4 small implants to support a denture that can restore an entire arch of teeth. After 4 implants are strategically placed into your jawbone, your dentist will customize a denture that will attach to the implants, holding it securely in place.<\/p>\n
Your denture is designed to complement your skin tone and facial structure so they truly provide an esthetically appealing appearance. Because of the security the implants provide, you won\u2019t have to worry about movement or slippage when you are talking or eating. <\/p>\n
The Benefits of All-on-4<\/p>\n
Besides a more stable fit, implant supported dentures offer many other benefits. The implants work to keep your jawbone healthy and stimulated, which prevents the bone loss that occurs with tooth loss. <\/p>\n
Bone loss is often accelerated by traditional dentures, which are removable and rely on suction to stay in place. Less bone loss means that your implant supported dentures will provide greater longevity.<\/p>\n
Am I a Candidate for All-on-4 Dentures?<\/p>\n
If you would like to learn more about implant supported dentures, the first step is to schedule a consultation with your dentist. They will perform a thorough examination and take x-rays to determine if All-on-4 is the right treatment for you. If you are not a candidate for implant supported dentures, your dentist can discuss other options that may suit your needs. <\/p>\n
