Snap-In Implant Dentures Cincinnati, OH

Snap-In Implant Dentures are dentures that have special fittings enabling them to securely attach to dental implants placed by your dentist.

By anchoring your dentures with dental implants, you can experience the following benefits:

1. Enjoy a wider variety of your favorite foods: Securing your denture with dental implants allows for stronger and more confident chewing.

2. Non-removable: Unlike traditional dentures, snap-in implant dentures do not need to be taken out of the mouth.

3. Smile and laugh without worry: With the dentures securely attached, you can smile and laugh without the fear of them falling out.

4. Increased comfort: The reduced movement of dentures results in less rubbing and chafing, leading to a more comfortable experience.

5. Improved nutrition: Better chewing ability provided by dental implants allows for improved digestion and absorption of nutrients.

6. Suitable for those with limited bone: Snap-In Implant Dentures require the least amount of bone, making them a great option for individuals who have been told they have insufficient bone for traditional implants.

7. Reduced bone loss: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, promoting continued bone production and reducing the risk of bone loss.

8. Minimized gag reflex: In some cases, a portion of the palate can be removed, reducing or eliminating the gag reflex caused by the denture.

9. Enhanced comfort: Dental implants help minimize irritation caused by denture movement, resulting in increased comfort.

10. Improved taste sensation: For patients with upper dentures, removing part of the palate can enhance the ability to taste food.

Snap-In Implant Dentures vs. Traditional Dentures

Traditional dentures have long been a popular solution for individuals with missing teeth, but it's important to acknowledge their limitations. These dentures, while providing some level of functionality, stability, and chewing ability, often fall short in several key areas.

Another significant concern associated with traditional dentures is the potential for bone loss. When natural teeth are lost, the underlying bone structure can begin to deteriorate over time. Traditional dentures do not address this issue, as they simply rest on the gums without stimulating the underlying bone. This can lead to further oral health complications and a less stable foundation for the dentures.

Lastly, traditional dentures can sometimes trigger a gag reflex in certain individuals. This can be a distressing and uncomfortable experience, making it challenging to wear the dentures for extended periods or even at all.

In conclusion, while traditional dentures have their limitations, Snap-In Implant Dentures offer a remarkable solution that greatly improves upon these issues. With enhanced function, stability, and chewing ability, individuals can regain their confidence, enjoy a wider variety of foods, and experience improved overall oral health.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

An upper implant denture necessitates a minimum of 4 implants, while a lower implant denture necessitates a minimum of 2 implants. Generally, the stability of your denture increases with the number of implants. This is particularly significant for the lower denture, where having three or four implants is typically superior to having only two.

At present, we do not administer anesthesia to induce sleep in patients. However, we do provide oral conscious sedation as an alternative. This medication aims to help you relax during your procedure and often results in a lack of recollection. To obtain this medication, we will write you a prescription which you can collect from your preferred pharmacy. Please note that it is imperative to arrange for a designated driver who can transport you after taking the oral sedation pill(s). It is strictly advised not to operate any motor vehicle or machinery following the consumption of this medication.

The ability to remove the palate in a snap-in denture depends on the dental implants being spread out. Our All-On-4 procedure guarantees the ability to remove the palate, but this may not always be possible with snap-in dentures. Removing the palate can enhance taste and increase hot and cold sensitivity, providing a more natural experience. It can also provide relief for patients with a severe gag reflex.

Please note that any significant bleeding will have ceased before you leave the clinic. However, it is normal to experience slight bleeding (oozing) for 1-3 days following the procedure. Additionally, when your denture(s) are initially inserted, you may notice increased salivation. This may cause the saliva to mix with a small amount of blood, giving the appearance of more bleeding than there actually is. If heavy bleeding persists, please contact our office.

If you are looking for a home remedy to aid in clotting and stop bleeding, using tea bags is an effective option. Simply dampen a regular tea bag, remove excess water by squeezing it, and place it on the extraction site(s). The tea bags will assist in clotting. If necessary, multiple tea bags can be used. Remember to replace the tea bags if they become saturated with blood. You can repeat this process as many times as needed.

Each patient's recovery time varies. While some individuals may be able to return to work the day after the procedure, others may need to wait for a week or two. It is important to note that there is a possibility of experiencing bruising and swelling, and it will take time to adjust to eating and speaking with the new teeth. Therefore, if possible, it is advisable to take a longer period of time off for a smoother recovery.

This is not solely a procedure for older individuals. It is actually quite common for people in their 40s, 30s, and even 20s to require tooth replacement. Replacing damaged teeth can greatly improve your overall physical health. Additionally, having teeth that enable you to smile, laugh, and communicate confidently can significantly enhance your emotional well-being. It is important to note that needing tooth replacement at a younger age is not unusual.

Here are some important things to keep in mind for maintaining your implant dentures:

Snaps: Over time, the snap rings in your implant dentures may wear out and lose retention. It is necessary to periodically change them, which is a quick and affordable process.

Cleanings: Just like natural teeth, your implants need regular cleaning. Any buildup on your implants will be removed, and your dentures will be thoroughly cleaned.

Periodic re-fittings: As your mouth changes over time, it is important to re-fit your dentures to ensure optimal performance and prevent unnecessary stress on your implants.

Home maintenance: Taking a few minutes each day for home maintenance can make a big difference. Remove your dentures 1-2 times per day and brush them with a denture brush or a very soft bristled toothbrush. Additionally, don't forget to clean your implants by gently scrubbing them with a soft dental brush.

The timeline for the Snap-In Implant Dentures procedure is as follows:

On average, the process usually lasts for approximately 6 months from beginning to end.

Here's how it works:

Once all remaining teeth are extracted and any required oral surgery is completed, the implants are inserted into the jawbone. Subsequently, the implants are usually not visible as they remain undisturbed in your jaw for a minimum of 4 months, allowing your bone to fuse with them through a process called osseointegration.

Postoperative

Please schedule a post-operative appointment for the day after your procedure. During this appointment, we will assess your mouth, ensure the dentures fit comfortably, and address any inquiries you may have. We look forward to seeing you then.

Soft Liners and Soft Re-Fittings

Soft liners are used as cushions in your denture during the healing process. They serve to fill the gaps between your gums and dentures, providing cushioning for your gums. Additionally, they improve the fit and comfort of your dentures.

Uncovery

This surgical procedure involves exposing the implants and placing small healing abutments on top of them. This is done to shape your gum tissue and prepare you for the final step of fitting your snap-in dentures.

Implants being attached to dentures.

We will replace your healing abutments with denture abutments and complete the necessary procedures to connect your dentures to your implants. Typically, this process can be completed within a day, although occasionally it may take a bit longer.
