Are you struggling with the challenges of full or nearly full tooth loss? Do you currently wear removable dentures and want a more secure option?

At Twickenham Family Dentistry, we have solutions to help you. Dental implants are the modern answer to tooth loss, and implant-retained dentures deliver the best of both worlds.

What Are Implant-Retained Dentures?

Also called implant-supported dentures, they are a type of overdenture supported by and attached to dental implants.

Traditional removable dentures simply rest on top of your gums. Implant-retained dentures are anchored to dental implants fixed in your jawbone and can only be removed by your dentist. This tooth replacement is ideal if you have lost most or all of your teeth but still have enough jawbone to support dental implants.

The Advantages of Implant-Retained Dentures

Dr. Brian Cook recommends implant dentures for our patients because they offer numerous benefits compared to removable dentures.

Reliable Stability

Because the implants act as replacement tooth roots, these dentures provide unparalleled stability and comfort.

Natural Feel

Implant-supported dentures feel more like your natural teeth because it doesn’t slip, move, or shift in your mouth.

Preserves Bone

Dental implants prevent bone loss, which commonly occurs after tooth loss, by keeping the bone stimulated and healthy.

Improved Function

Implant dentures provide significantly improved biting and chewing ability so that you can enjoy a wider variety of foods.

Confidence Boost

When you know your dentures aren’t going to move or slip, you can eat, speak, laugh, and smile confidently.

The Process for Getting Implant Dentures

Getting implant-retained occurs over several months and requires several visits to Twickenham Family Dentistry. Our caring dental team understands this is a big step and is committed to guiding you through this process to ensure it is comfortable and stress-free!

Initial Consultation with Our Dentists

man eating red apple | dentist huntsville You will first meet with Dr. Cook at our Huntsville, AL, dental office. They will thoroughly evaluate your oral health to determine if you are a good implant candidate. Using advanced technology like 3-D cone beam CT scans and panoramic x-rays, they determine how many implants are needed and their optimal placement.

Dental Implant Placement and Healing

The small titanium implant posts are placed surgically into your jawbone by our experienced and skilled dentists. This step is done under local anesthesia, and we will ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.

After placement comes healing, which requires 3–6 months. This gives the implant posts time to fully integrate and fuse with the jawbone, and this process is called osseointegration.

Attaching Your Custom-Crafted Dentures

We understand that the appearance of your dentures is crucial. Our dental team will take all the time needed to plan and custom-craft dentures that look natural and complement your smile and facial features. When implant healing is complete, our dentists attach your dentures securely to the implants.
