We recommend dental implants to replace any missing teeth. Whether in the front or back of the mouth, they function properly for chewing and provide a full and healthy-looking smile. They look just like the real deal, as they come up through the gums just like natural teeth do. Even patients with no teeth can benefit, because dental implants can be used to stabilize dentures so they don’t slide when speaking or tilt when eating. After a titanium post is placed, Dr. Bielawski will custom-create natural-looking restorations.
As soon as a tooth is extracted, bone loss begins. At our practice, we can fill the area of the extracted tooth with a bone graft. This will ensure optimal quantity of bone for more predictable results after the implant post is placed in the bone.
Overdentures – The Answer for Slipping Dentures
People who wear dentures will tell you that the worst part is having their teeth slip, tilt or slide while they’re eating. They have to use denture adhesive to try to keep their teeth from moving around. This is a major irritant for them. But now, at Lifetime Family Dentistry we offer our denture patients an alternative – overdentures. With the use of just a few dental implants to support the dentures, your teeth will be “locked” into place so they won’t move. Yet they easily snap off for cleaning. Say good bye to messy creams! Ask us if you are a candidate for overdentures. We can also design and fit natural-looking dentures that won't slip. This breakthrough involves anchoring the denture plate so securely that you no longer have to worry about the foods you eat or that your dentures might shift or slip.
