Missing teeth can plague a person’s life and cause them to feel uncomfortable with their appearance. Those who are missing teeth in the front of their smile often have a more difficult time feeling confident. Unfortunately, this issue can also cause a person to be unable to chew their food normally or even talk with precise syllables. For these issues, there are Implant Dentures in New London CT. Implant dentures can permanently replace missing teeth so a person can fully regain their function and confidence.
Instead of dealing with removable dentures, Implant Dentures in New London CT become a permanent part of the person’s smile. The first part of the process involves the placement of the metal implants in the jawbone. This implantation takes place through a surgical procedure.
For this surgery, a series of titanium anchors are placed into the jawbone and spaced precisely to ensure the dentures will be able to attach properly. Each metal anchor resembles a screw and is placed into the bone at a depth that allows the titanium to become one with the bone tissue.
The bonding process occurs over a period of time, between two and six months. It is imperative this process takes place, or the person’s dentures will not able to hold as firmly as they should for normal function. Bonding of the metal anchors and bone tissue must be checked by the dentist before the next phase of the process can be accomplished.
A special pair of dentures is made specifically for the patient, so they offer the perfect fit. When the denture plates have been created, they are attached to the metal anchors and clamped in place. This attachment offers secure teeth that will look and perform like natural teeth without slipping inside the mouth.
