Unlike traditional dentures, implant supported dentures in Williamsville, NY give patients a stable, reliable, and comfortable new smile. Although every person’s smile is unique, there is a standard procedure process for peoples implant supported denture treatments.
There are a variety of steps taken to ensure the patients comfort, as well as safety, throughout their surgical procedure. Here is what is done during an implant supported denture procedure process.
The Implant Supported Denture Procedure Process
During an implant supported denture procedure process, there are various steps that need to be taken in order for the patient to get the functional and beautiful new smile they need and deserve. Here is a more detailed explanation of what happens when people get treated with implant supported dentures in Williamsville, NY:
The Consultation
All good implant supported denture procedures start with a consultation. The oral surgeon will examine the patient’s oral health, take CBCT scans, and discuss the patient’s dental history in order to determine if they are a suitable candidate for implant-supported dentures. Once the patient is determined to be a good candidate, the oral surgeon can move on to planning their implant supported denture procedure.
Procedure Planning
A comprehensive implant supported denture treatment plan will be developed based on the patient’s specific needs and wants. This includes the oral surgeon determining the number and location of the dental implants required, and selecting the appropriate denture type.
Sedation Dentistry
Before the patient’s implant supported denture procedure begins, sedation dentistry can be administered to them. With sedation dentistry, patients can have an anxiety-free and comfortable procedure experience.
Placing Dental Implants
The two or more dental implants, in an implant supported denture procedure, are surgically placed into the patient’s jawbone. In order to ensure the best possible procedure outcome, the dental implants are strategically positioned in the patient’s jawbone, with advanced dental technology, in order to give them optimal support for their dentures.
Healing Process
After the dental implants are accurately placed in the patient’s jawbone, a healing period is necessary to allow the dental implants to properly integrate with their jawbone. The dental implant integrating with the patient’s jawbone is a process called osseointegration. This can take several months.
Denture Placement And Follow-Up Appointments
The final step involves attaching the denture(s) to the dental implants. The dentures are securely anchored to the dental implants, giving the patient a stable and functional new smile. Regular follow-up visits are essential to monitor the implant supported denture healing process. Necessary adjustments can be made with the implant supported dentures to ensure that they are comfortable and functional in the patient’s mouth.
