Replacing Lost Teeth? 7 Reasons to Consider Overdentures

Good oral health is essential to a high quality of life. If tooth loss issues are keeping you from living a full and active lifestyle, implant dentures can help! Implant treatment gives you a choice of removable overdentures or hybrid dentures to restore the integrity of your smile. If you live in Sacramento or Rancho Cordova, California, we encourage you to visit Dr. Ricardo Andrade and Dr. Denisse Montalvo from Dynamic Dental to see how implant dentures can improve your life. 

Here are seven reasons to consider implant overdentures to rebuild your smile:

1. Stability of Real Teeth

Implant overdentures are anchored in place by implants: small, titanium posts inserted into your jaw surgically to function like tooth roots. Once the implants fuse with your jawbone, they become a permanent support system for your new teeth. Implant overdentures are removable restorations that snap onto the implants for daily use. The implants give your new teeth the stability of natural teeth for talking, laughing, biting, and chewing. 

2. Greater Dietary Choices 

Implant overdentures restore your ability to chew, allowing you to eat more of the food you love. You can increase your dietary options to include crispy, crunchy, and chewy food. You’ll have a full set of strong, healthy teeth to meet all your dietary needs. Improved chewing means you’ll also get more nutritional value from your food.

3. Realistic Appearance   

Implant dentures are custom-fitted for your mouth and made of ceramic or porcelain material that closely resembles the color and sheen of natural teeth. Your new teeth will have the same structure as real teeth, right down to their roots, to give your smile an authentic look. 

4. No Need for Messy Adhesives

Unlike traditional dentures, implant overdentures have no need for sticky, messy adhesives to keep them in place. They come with a special snap-on feature to attach to the implants when in use. The implants keep your dentures stable and secure. 

5. Simplified Oral Hygiene 

Implant overdentures are removable for easy maintenance and care. This simplifies oral hygiene and allows you to keep your dentures fresh and clean. Your new teeth should be brushed and flossed daily and rinsed after every meal. You can also clean around the implant attachments to reduce your risk of bacterial infections or gum disease.

6. No Bone Loss 

Implants function like tooth roots in stimulating your jawbone after losing natural teeth to prevent bone loss. By choosing implant dentures to replace lost teeth, you can keep your jaw healthy and strong. 

7. Longevity 

Implants can last for decades, with good oral care, providing a lasting solution to tooth loss issues. When it’s time to upgrade your overdentures, you’ll have the strength and support of implants to keep your new smile going strong for life.
