With conventional dentures, teeth are extracted first, then a temporary denture is placed. Your permanent denture will be ready after fully recovering from tooth extraction. This denture sticks to the roof of your mouth and must be removed at night.
If you wear dentures, you may need to modify your diet, so avoid foods that are very hard to chew or chewy. Overdentures secured to dental implants may restore a whole arch of missing teeth on the top or bottom jaw.
Implant Overdentures improve ordinary dentures since they are anchored in the mouth. These removable dentures are designed to connect to dental implants in the jaw. Dentures can stay in place with the help of these implants throughout the day and night.
Since implant overdentures are permanently affixed to the implants in your jaw, you may eat anything you want without worrying about loose dentures. You will not have to worry about them shifting as you eat or converse. The implants also prevent the jawbone from deteriorating over time.
Different Implant Overdenture Designs
Overdentures may be set using one of five distinct techniques:
Two to six implants are screwed into the jawbone to support implant-support overdentures, which may be taken out at night and for cleaning.
Overdentures secured in place with screws that can be removed are called "fixed implant-supported overdentures." They need the same care as real teeth while cleaning.
In the case of bar-retained implant-supported overdentures, the denture is clipped onto a bar that is secured to the implants.
Overdentures that attach to implants using ball-shaped connectors are known as ball-retained overdentures.
Partial overdentures at Baluke Dental Studios are an option for those who need to replace fewer teeth than a complete arch. It involves placing dental implants instead of natural tooth roots so that an overdenture may clip onto them.
