Millions of Americans suffer from tooth loss whether it occurs from dental trauma, periodontal disease, or tooth decay. For many years, the only tooth replacement options available to patients were dentures or dental bridges, but now there are implant-retained dentures. Fortunately, Dr. Martin Urban, DDS provides this restorative method in his practice.
An implant-supported denture is a type of overdenture that is supported by and attached to dental implants. These types of dentures are recommended when a patient doesn’t have any teeth in his or her jaw but has enough bone in the jaw to support dental implants. Implant-retained dentures are removable and should be taken out of the mouth and cleaned every night.
