This new style of dentures is referred to as an overdenture. When missing all of the teeth in the upper or lower part of the jaw, dental implants are recommended. While used for individual teeth previously, this newly adopted style of denture snaps into place via several dental implants.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Types of Dental Implant Supported Dentures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There are generally two styles: Bar-retained dentures and ball-retained dentures. Bar-retained dentures use small metal bars to interconnect the tops of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dentistpasadenatx.com\/dental-implants.html\">dental implants<\/a> that are then used to connect the denture. For ball-retained dentures, there are not connecting bars, and instead, each implant connects to the denture. Each has separate benefits and will be greatly determined by your dentist\u2019s recommendation for your specific scenario.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Placement of Dental Implants<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The structure of a person\u2019s jaw is always going to be slightly different, but in most cases, there is generally more bone present in the front of the mouth. For this reason, this is most commonly the location of the installed dental implants. Installing dental implants can sometimes be a complicated process since it is so unique for each and every patient. The post-installation healing process can take several months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dental Implant Supported Denture Care<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Like standard dentures, overdentures need to be removed nightly and cleaned. Careful attention must also be placed on the cleaning of the bars or balls of the dental implant. Your dentist will also need to check the status occasionally. Any feeling of looseness should be reported to your dentist immediately since tiny bits of looseness can quickly spread and cause larger issues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dental Implant Overdenture Expectations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For a patient looking for increased stability over their current denture, a switch to an overdenture will help. Also, expect increased comfort and confidence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dental Implant Overdenture \u2013 What Is It?
