Led by Dr. Debora Jeong and Won Jung Jeong, our practice excels in enhancing smiles and improving oral health through state-of-the-art treatments.
Exploring Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures represent a significant advancement in restorative dentistry. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, these are anchored securely to dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This foundation not only provides superior stability but also helps preserve jawbone density, preventing the bone loss often associated with missing teeth.
The Advantages of Choosing Implant-Supported Dentures
- Enhanced Stability: No more worries about dentures slipping or falling out.
- Improved Comfort: A fit that feels more natural and less irritation of gum tissue.
- Better Oral Health: Stimulation of the jawbone helps to maintain its structure and health.
- Longevity: With proper care, implant-supported dentures can last many years.
Your Journey Towards Implant-Supported Dentures
The process begins with a thorough consultation at Mission Dental Group, where our experts evaluate your dental health and discuss your goals. If implant-supported dentures are right for you, the next steps involve surgical placement of implants by our experienced team, followed by a period of healing. Once healed, custom-made dentures are securely attached to these implants, providing you with a smile that’s both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
Setting Your Expectations: The Transformation Process
Patient education is paramount at Mission Dental Group. While the journey towards implant-supported dentures involves several stages and patience is required during the healing process, the outcome is transformative. Patients can expect not only an improvement in their smile’s appearance but also a significant enhancement in chewing efficiency and overall oral health.
