For those 60 and older, the global prevalence of total tooth loss is 23%<\/a><\/strong>. This means that millions, if not billions, of patients worldwide are struggling without teeth. While a traditional denture is the most common total tooth replacement option, it’s not always the most effective. At Aesthetic Dental in Southfield, MI, we use dental implants to help stabilize your dentures and restore your smile! These titanium posts secure in your jawbone, creating a strong foundation for denture restorations. And for those looking to replicate the strength, stability, and look of their natural teeth, we recommend a roundhouse bridge.<\/p>\n

The Drawback to Traditional Dentures<\/h2>\n

Traditional dentures<\/a><\/strong> are a tried-and-true way to replace missing teeth.<\/p>\n

The lower denture features a classic gum base that rests on the ridge of your jawbone and is crafted to fit perfectly in the contours of your mouth. In contrast, upper dentures use suction to adhere to the roof of your mouth, with a large denture plate that covers your upper palate<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

At first, your traditional dentures are likely a comfortable and pretty effective solution. However, this fit isn’t meant to last.<\/p>\n

After tooth loss, your jawbone will undergo bone resorption, or the gradual loss of bone mass and volume. The only way to prevent bone loss is to replace your missing tooth roots below your gums, which traditional dentures don’t do.<\/p>\n

This natural resorption process causes your bone to shrink beneath your dentures, changing the shape of your face and jaw.<\/p>\n

As your jawbone deteriorates and your denture remains the same shape, it’ll come loose in your mouth. Loose dentures can cause a variety of issues, including gum irritation, difficulty chewing, and even embarrassing mishaps where your prosthetic falls out of your mouth.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, with dental implants<\/a><\/strong>, we secure your denture to your jawbone.<\/p>\n
