Contact UsWhat Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Partial or complete removable dentures need adhesives or pastes to stay in place, but implant-supported dentures are connected to metal posts in your jaw in order to fit securely and keep stable. This means that the dentures will not slip, even when you are speaking or eating. With more security and support, patients with implant dentures can rest assured that their dentures will remain in their mouth. Implanted dentures look attractive and can be used just like your natural teeth. At Advanced Smiles, Frisco, TX patients can have custom implant dentures that are comfortable and natural-looking.

What to Expect from Implant-Supported Dentures
Prior to any treatment, Dr. De Paoli will perform a thorough dental exam using digital x-rays to assess the health of your jawbone and gums. If your jawbone or gums are not strong enough to accept the implants, then a bone and/or gum graft surgery can be done. Once the grafted area is strengthened, the implants can be placed.
You will be given local anesthesia to numb your mouth before the procedure. Other sedation options may be considered if the process will be extensive or if it helps you feel more comfortable. Dr. De Paoli will make incisions in your gums and place implant posts in the holes in the jawbone. For dentures, at least four implants are needed per arch. The incisions in the gums will be sutured with some of the implanted posts showing above the gumline. The implants will be protected by a temporary denture as your mouth heals in the next 4 – 6 months. The implants will integrate with your gums and jaw. Once Dr. De Paoli feels the posts are strong enough, your custom-made dentures can be connected to the implanted posts and adjusted for a secure fit.
