Counting On Dental Implants To Support Dentures And Bridges
Posted August 9, 2017 by Wager-Evans Dental

What Do Dental Implants Add To Your Prosthetic Support?
Implants are used to keep your prosthetics permanently in place, which can make them more supportive, and more comfortable. A set of mini dental implants allows you to secure permanent dentures, with no concerns about difficulty speaking or chewing caused by a loose fit. A dental bridge supported with an implant will not put you in a situation where you need to place crowns on potentially healthy teeth – without an implant, a pair of crowns is necessary to keep a bridge stable. In addition to stability, implants offer important health advantages, including the ability to stop jawbone resorption from affecting you after tooth loss.
Active Gum Disease Can Interfere With Implant Placement
A significant number of patients who seek help for missing teeth lost those teeth due to complications from gum disease. You should know that active periodontal issues may interfere with your ability to receive dental implants – your dentist can review your condition during a consultation.
