How Does Same Day Implant Placement Work?
Cherrywood Dental • Jan 14, 2014
Patients seeking dental implant treatment will find themselves looking forward to the big day – and with good reason. Getting dental implants and restorations will change your smile and your life by returning function to your teeth and revitalizing your grin. For some patients, receiving dental implants can take longer than they’d like. Dr. Pakpour and Dr. Barzgar strive to change that experience by offering same-day implant and restoration placement. If you’re a candidate for Teeth Xpress, you may be able to regain your smile within the space of just one appointment. Read on to learn more about whether this is a possibility.
Pairing Dentures with Dental Implants
If you currently have full or partial dentures, Teeth Xpress is a possibility. We’ll need to evaluate your dental health, periodontal health, and bone density during an exam. We’ll then discuss your options with you and lay out potential treatments. If you decide to pursue Teeth Xpress, we’ll use your current dentures to create the restorations that will accompany your implants. We may need to dismantle the dentures to obtain individual crowns, or may leave them whole. Once your implants are placed, we’ll attach the dentures and you’ll enjoy outstanding support.
Why Dental Implant-Supported Dentures?
Dentures have inherent flaws. In order to remain anchored to your gums, they need to draw support from somewhere in your mouth. This leads to your dentures feeling loose, the fit being off, and the restorations being generally unnatural and unsatisfying. We don’t want that for any of our patients. By pairing your dentures with dental implants, you provide the dentures with sturdy, bone-supported foundations. Your implants will make your dentures look and feel like a natural part of you.
