What are the benefits of permanent dentures for tooth replacement?
Created on April 15, 2020
Today, there are a wide range of options available to patients who are dealing with the replacement of missing teeth. Springfield, MA area dentists, including Drs. Peck, Velastegui, and Homsi of Taylor Street Dental are pleased to offer solutions that work based on a patient’s individual needs. A common consideration for patients who are replacing an entire arch of teeth is that of permanent dentures, sometimes referred to as “implant-retained dentures.”
What are permanent dentures?
Permanent dentures are a special fixed prosthetic that looks natural, functions at its best, and allows patients to rehabilitation after tooth loss or extraction. These dentures fit in place with several dental implants placed in the bone of the jaw along the arch. The dentures are fabricated from high-quality materials to look and feel natural. With permanent dentures, patients do not need to use dental adhesives or rely on natural suction to hold their restorations in place. These dentures are highly desirable for patients who want a reliable option for long-term use.
