Who Is a Candidate for Implant-Supported Dentures?
In this video, we touch on the key factors that determine whether implants can support your existing denture. Many patients appreciate the added comfort and stability this solution provides.
Ultimately, the key factors are having sufficient bone and the ability to accommodate the implants within the denture. If there is enough bone and the denture is in good condition, we can place implants—typically four on the lower arch and six on the upper arch.
In many cases, we can even remove the palate portion of the upper denture, making it feel more like an upper bridge than a traditional denture. This approach is very popular among patients seeking improved comfort and function.
