Secure, Comfortable Smiles with Implant-Supported Dentures in Westminster, CO

Are you tired of dealing with loose dentures or missing teeth that make eating and speaking a challenge? At Espire Dental Westminster, we offer implant-supported dentures—a revolutionary solution that combines the stability of dental implants with the convenience of dentures. If you’re looking for a permanent, secure way to restore your smile, implant-supported dentures can give you the confidence and comfort you deserve.

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums and rely on adhesives for stability, implant-supported dentures are anchored to dental implants placed directly into the jawbone. The implants act as artificial roots, providing a solid foundation for the dentures. This connection helps prevent slipping and discomfort, offering a more secure and natural-feeling solution for patients who need to replace multiple or all of their teeth.

The Implant-Supported Denture Process at Espire Dental Westminster

At Espire Dental Westminster, we make the process of getting implant-supported dentures as comfortable and seamless as possible. Here’s what to expect:

Consultation and Planning: We start with a comprehensive exam and consultation to assess your oral health and determine if you’re a candidate for dental implants. This may include X-rays or a 3D scan to evaluate the condition of your jawbone.
Implant Placement: During the next phase, dental implants will be surgically placed into your jawbone. These implants act as artificial tooth roots, providing a strong foundation for your dentures. In some cases, a temporary denture may be placed while the implants heal.
Healing Period: Over the next few months, the implants will fuse with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration. This creates a stable, long-lasting bond between the implants and your jaw.
Denture Fitting: Once the implants are fully integrated, we’ll fit you with custom-designed dentures that attach securely to the implants. The result is a natural-looking, fully functional smile that feels secure and comfortable.
Final Adjustments: After your dentures are placed, we’ll make any necessary adjustments to ensure a perfect fit. Our goal is to provide you with dentures that feel as close to your natural teeth as possible.

How long do implant-supported dentures last?

With proper care, the implants themselves can last a lifetime. The dentures may need adjustments or replacement over time, but they’re designed to be durable and long-lasting.

Is the implant surgery painful?

The implant placement procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel any pain during surgery. Some mild discomfort is expected after the procedure, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers.

How do I care for my implant-supported dentures?

Care for implant-supported dentures is similar to caring for natural teeth. Brush them daily, clean around the implants, and visit us regularly for checkups to ensure your implants and dentures stay in excellent condition.

‍

Can I eat normally with implant-supported dentures?

Yes! Implant-supported dentures provide superior stability compared to traditional dentures, allowing you to eat a wide variety of foods without worrying about your dentures slipping or shifting.

‍

What if I don’t have enough bone for implants?

If your jawbone isn’t dense enough to support implants, a bone graft can help rebuild the bone. We’ll discuss your options during your consultation to ensure the best possible outcome.

Will dental insurance cover implant-supported dentures?

While dental insurance may not cover the full cost of implants, many plans cover a portion of the procedure. We’ll help you navigate your insurance and offer flexible payment options to make your treatment affordable.
