You can secure your dentures with dental implants in Surrey
If you have lost, or are losing, all of your teeth you may be told that you need complete dentures. If this is the case, don't despair, today's dentures look nothing like Grandma's false teeth that spent most of their time sitting in a glass. They were called "false teeth" because that is the way they looked and felt. However, thanks to the advances in dental technology, tools, and materials, modern dentures are indiscernible from beautiful natural teeth.
It is important for people who have lost their teeth to replace them for a number of reasons:
- Nutrition – When we have lost most, or all of our teeth, we have no choice but to change our diet. Without the ability to chew efficiently, our bodies are unable to get the nutrition they need. If we restrict ourselves to soft foods, it is nearly impossible to eat a balanced diet. If we try to eat a balanced diet, much of the food isn't chewed sufficiently, making much of the nutrients unavailable and causing digestive problems.
- Function – Without the teeth and bone in place, our jaws are not held in the correct position, which can lead to jaw pain, headaches, pain around the ears, and more.
- Aesthetics – In addition to the lack of teeth in your smile, your face will develop a sunken look due to the loss of supporting structure.
- Emotions – Our confidence and sense of self-worth can diminish when we are embarrassed about our lack of teeth.
- Social – We live in a society that focuses on facial beauty. People who have attractive smiles are perceived as more trustworthy, intelligent, and successful. When we lose our teeth, we can lose social assets as well.
Today's dentures can give patients a smile that is every bit as beautiful as those of the stars. Portmore dental office creates dentures that have the look, comfort, and stability of natural teeth. Modern materials create a stunning appearance, advanced scanning technology and precision measurements resulting in a comfortable fit, and mini dental implants make them as stable as natural teeth.
Mini dental implant supported dentures is one of our areas of expertise. This system is minimally invasive and allows you to leave our office in about two hours with a beautiful smile. There may some minimal discomfort for a short while after the procedure, but you can then return to the life you had before your tooth loss. You can once again eat, talk and laugh in public with confidence.
