Do you find yourself struggling with your dentures on a
daily basis? If so, dental implants may be able to transform your life. To
illustrate just how transformative implant dentures can be, your Grand Prairie dentist, Dr. Quinn Smith,
has created two portraits to compare living with standard dentures to living
with implant dentures.
Life with Standard Dentures
A morning with standard dentures may begin with a soft meal.
After all, meals that are too tough can cause the dentures to slide all over the
place and irritate the mouth. The conversation during breakfast may be halting
and difficult. Speaking can be frustrating if the dentures won’t stay steady.
Slurring and mumbling are likely to be commonplace as you fight to keep the
dentures still and avoid an embarrassing slip. In addition to being soft, breakfast
may be a bit bland, lacking a lot of taste, and so even before you step foot
out of your door, you may find yourself frustrated.
Life with Implant Dentures
The same scenario can be transformed with the simple
addition of dental implants. No longer is breakfast limited to soft food, and
no longer is the mouth likely to feel irritated from the friction of sliding
dentures. Conversation is likely to be better as well as the dental implants
will hold the dentures steady and allow the facial muscles to relax, promoting
clearer speech.
In addition, implant dentures also encourage an improved
sense of taste. They do so because they, unlike standard dentures, which rely
on suction to remain stable, can leave the palate uncovered, thereby restoring
the sense of taste. Finally, implant dentures eliminate embarrassing slips. The
dentures are anchored into the jawbone by titanium implants, so they are unable
to slip or slide.
