Frequently Asked Questions about Denture implants
What are denture implants, and how do they differ from traditional dentures?
Denture implants are a modern solution that combines the stability of dental implants with the full-mouth restoration of dentures. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on your gums and may slip or require adhesives, implant-supported dentures are anchored to titanium posts placed in the jawbone. This offers improved comfort, chewing power, and confidence.
