Imagine driving a car that clinks and rattles as you travel down the road. Each journey is filled with uncertainty, wondering if you’ll make it from one traffic light to the next. This stress is especially burdensome if you spend much time in your car. But you likely spend even more time with your dentures, which also can bring unwanted stress. Every smile and meal becomes a source of anxiety, robbing you of life’s simple pleasures. So, if you wouldn’t settle for an unreliable car, you shouldn’t have to endure unreliable dentures. Quality, snap-in dentures should enhance your daily life, providing comfort and stability so you can speak, eat, and smile without a second thought. Upgrading any aspect of our lives, whether it’s a car or our dental health, is about investing in our well-being and peace of mind.
Why Are My Dentures Uncomfortable?
Have you ever felt frustrated by your dentures? Initially, they might seem fine, but they often become loose and uncomfortable over time. Have you ever wondered why this happens? Conventional dentures attach to your gums using suction or adhesives, but they don’t address a critical issue: bone loss. When you lose teeth, your jawbone no longer receives the stimulation needed to maintain density. Without the stimulation, the bone starts to deteriorate. Since conventional dentures just sit on your gums, they can’t prevent bone loss. As your jawbone shrinks, your dentures lose their fit, becoming loose and unstable.
Think about the last time your dentures slipped while eating or speaking. It’s embarrassing, right? The suction or adhesive isn’t always reliable, leading to awkward moments. Plus, loose dentures can rub against your gums, causing irritation and sores. This constant discomfort can turn simple activities like eating and talking into a daily challenge. You may have also avoided certain foods because they’re hard to chew with your dentures. Over time, this leads to a restricted diet, making getting the nutrients you need difficult. Poor nutrition can affect your overall health, leading to weight loss, weakened immunity, and decreased energy levels.
Can Snap-In Dentures Help Me?
For those facing the more common issues presented by conventional denture options, implant dentures provide a solution. Instead of relying on suction or adhesives, implant dentures are anchored directly into your jawbone using small titanium posts called dental implants. These posts act like artificial tooth roots, giving your dentures a stable and secure foundation where the dentures “snap in” to place.
The key difference lies in how implant dentures interact with your jawbone. Dr. Bashi inserts the implants in the bone, aiding stimulation and maintaining bone density, much like natural teeth. This process prevents the bone loss that often occurs with conventional options, ensuring that your dentures remain snug and comfortable over time. Implant dentures also eliminate common issues like slipping and discomfort. They won’t move around because they are securely attached to the implants. So, you can eat, speak, and smile without worrying about them shifting. So, no more messy adhesives or sore gums!
Mini Dental Implants: The Foundation of Your Snap-In Dentures
If you currently have conventional dentures and are considering upgrading to implant dentures, you might have noticed some bone loss in your jaw. That’s why we offer mini dental implants at Best Care Dental. Mini dental implants simplify the path to a restored smile, particularly for those who have experienced bone loss. Unlike traditional implants, which require a substantial amount of jawbone, mini implants can be placed in areas with limited density. This advantage eliminates the need for bone grafting—a common necessity with traditional implants. Bone grafting is a complex procedure that adds time, cost, and discomfort to the implant process.
The simplicity of mini implants also extends to the procedure itself. Traditional implants involve a two-stage process with a healing period in between, which can take several months to a year. In contrast, Dr. Bashi can place mini implants and attach your new restoration in one visit. So, if you have been hesitant about implants due to concerns about bone loss or complex surgeries, mini implants offer a straightforward and effective solution!
