Implant Supported Dentures

There is no longer any need to suffer with painful, awkward dentures that continually move around, fall out, and make eating and even speaking quite difficult. Those are a thing of the past! Implant supported dentures offer a solution that can dramatically improve your quality of life. Imagine being able to enjoy a variety of your favorite foods again! Implant supported dentures enable proper and efficient chewing because they are stable, unlike traditional dentures. Being secured with implants, they offer better comfort as they are not constantly rubbing on the gum tissue underneath. People also notice improved speaking and an overall sense of renewed self-confidence. If you are faced with the possibility of losing all of your teeth, or already have traditional-style dentures, implant supported dentures is a wonderful option.

There are several different kinds of implant supported dentures; removable and fixed. Dr. John and the Schoolhouse Family Dentistry team will help you find the best type to fit your dental needs and budget.
