Implant-Supported Dentures: A Game-Changer for Your Smile

By January 17, 2025No Comments

The welcoming lobby of 30A Smiles in Inlet Beach.Implant-supported dentures have transformed the lives of countless patients at 30A Smiles. Unlike traditional dentures, which can be uncomfortable and unreliable, these advanced solutions offer a secure, natural-looking alternative for individuals with missing or failing teeth. Dr. Derek Fleitz and Dr. Lindsey Hoppe utilize cutting-edge technology and their extensive expertise to provide transformative treatments, such as All-on-4® and All-on-X, within the comfort of their state-of-the-art office in Inlet Beach, Florida.

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures anchor prosthetic teeth securely into the jawbone using dental implants. This innovative approach eliminates the slipping, discomfort, and adhesive requirements often associated with traditional dentures.

At 30A Smiles, patients can choose between two types of implant-supported dentures. Removable implant-supported dentures snap onto dental implants, offering stability while being easy to remove for cleaning. This option provides a secure fit during speaking and chewing, eliminates the need for adhesives, and helps retain facial features, preventing the “sunken” appearance caused by missing teeth. Fixed implant dentures, on the other hand, are permanently secured to dental implants and mimic the look and feel of natural teeth. These dentures are more hygienic, as they remain in the mouth and avoid external contact, while also restoring full chewing capacity and eliminating concerns about shifting or falling out.

The All-on-4® and All-on-X Advantage

The All-on-4® and All-on-X procedures are revolutionary treatments that can replace an entire arch of teeth using as few as four implants. Unlike many practices requiring multiple visits to different providers, 30A Smiles streamlines the process. Patients benefit from on-site CT scans for precise imaging and treatment planning, expert surgical care by Dr. Fleitz for tooth extractions and implant placement, and customized restorations by Dr. Hoppe to ensure natural-looking results. Additionally, an in-house lab technician facilitates seamless collaboration and same-day transformations. This integrated approach reduces the need for multiple appointments, ensuring a more comfortable and efficient experience.

Who Is a Candidate for Implant-Supported Dentures?

Candidates for implant-supported dentures typically have healthy gums, sufficient bone structure, and no chronic diseases that could affect healing. Non-smokers and those who maintain excellent oral hygiene are also ideal candidates. For patients requiring additional preparation, such as bone grafts or sinus lifts, the team at 30A Smiles is equipped to perform these procedures to optimize implant eligibility.

Why Choose Implant-Supported Dentures?

The long-term benefits of implant-supported dentures far outweigh the initial investment. While traditional dentures may seem more affordable upfront, they often require frequent adjustments, replacements, and ongoing treatments. Implant-supported dentures offer unparalleled stability and functionality, allowing patients to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. They also restore facial features for a youthful appearance and provide lasting durability and convenience, minimizing the need for repeated dental work.
