The Overwhelming Benefits of Overdentures

While modern dentures provide more comfort and stability than denture models in past decades, there is still an undeniable distinction between traditional dentures and overdentures. Overdentures refer to dentures that are secured by dental implants. More specifically, the overdenture has retentive attachments on a metal bar that connect to dental implants. These implants are surgically placed in the upper or lower jaw. Overdentures can be removable, and they easily snap into place. 

Why Choose Implants to Support Your Denture?

There are unrivaled benefits to be gained when choosing an overdenture versus a traditional removable denture, including the following: 

Maximum Self-Confidence With implant-retained dentures, you won’t have to worry about your denture slipping out of place when you speak, laugh or eat. This is reason enough to put forth the extra investment. 

Dietary Freedom Unlike traditional dentures, you won’t have to leave certain foods off your plate at mealtime. With overdentures, feel free to eat steak, nuts and fibrous fruits and vegetables that your body needs to stay healthy. A soft-foods diet often includes carb rich foods that can lead to diabetes and obesity in the long-term.

Bone Preservation Dental implants are the one and only way to keep your jawbone from atrophy after missing teeth. Even traditional dentures can’t stop the process of bone deterioration. Dental implants provide an artificial tooth root that stimulates your underlying bone and helps you avoid premature facial aging from a sunken jaw.
