Dental Implant Solutions

Dental Implant Crown

Before you are ready for a dental implant crown, your implant must go through the process of osseointegration, which is when the titanium implant post has fused with bone. Once completed, the single implant is ready to support an implant crown. 

An implant crown is the tooth component that can withstand chewing forces.  They are typically cemented onto an abutment, which is screwed down to the implant component.  Implant crowns use a single implant, while implant bridges can be used to replace multiple missing teeth. Implant bridges are used to create a bridge of crowns that are supported by two or more implants.

Overdentures

Dentures rely on suction and rely on your gum tissue to rest on, making them tissue supported. Without implants or teeth, bone is lost overtime.  As a result, over time dentures become looser and increasingly unsecured the older they get.  

An alternative solution is an overdenture. These are composed of the same material as dentures, but have a housing component embedded into the denture. This allows them to click into implants, similar to a button on a raincoat, for a better retention. You will see a vast improvement of keeping your denture in place while you speak and laugh, as well as help with chewing.  Schedule your appointment today to find out if you are a candidate.

Zirconia Hybrid

If you are frustrated with ill-fitting dentures, Zirconia Hybrids may be the right solution for you. They are a full mouth restoration and are permanently mounted to 4-8 implants within your mouth to provide the most convenient and functional prosthesis available today. 

Furthermore, Zirconia Hybrid dentures offer such a natural-looking esthetic that they are virtually indistinguishable from someone with a perfect set of natural teeth.  Contrast to acrylic hybrid dentures, zirconia hybrids are made of zirconia. 

Zirconia is not porous and prevents fungus, residue or bacteria clinging to it as acrylic dentures do. It is a much more resilient material and allows for a much greater amount of chewing force, so you can enjoy the foods you did when you had a full set of teeth. Zirconia hybrids have clinically proven successful due to beyond extra strength, superior stability and functionality.
