Traditional Dentures – A Go-to for the Edentulous

Did you know one in every five adults aged 65 and over had untreated tooth decay? According to the American College of Prosthodontists’ Go to a Pro, about 15 percent of the edentulous population has dentures made each year in the US²as a solution to replace missing teeth.

If you have tried traditional dentures you probably have known their limitations. They are unstable, wobbly and shift around in the mouth. People who want a stable alternative may be interested in implant supported dentures.

Unlike traditional dentures which are placed on the gum line with no support, implant supported dentures are anchored in your mouth by dental implants. They are fast becoming the preferred option for patients with missing teeth.

Dental implants are titanium tooth roots that are surgically placed in the jawbone and then a prosthetic crown, bridge or denture is attached to it. Through the process of osseointegration, the artificial tooth root attaches itself to the jawbone. Abutments are attached to the titanium rod after the healing process is over.

Overdentures vs. Ordinary Dentures

Implant supported dentures have following advantages over traditional removable dentures:

Implant Supported Dentures	Traditional Dentures
Secured by implants.	Placed over the gum line and are not secured by dental implants.
Are a permanent solution.	Not a permanent solution.
Are stable and do not slide or move.	Prone to sliding.
Do not require any adhesives	May require adhesives.
You can eat all kinds of food.	There may be difficulty chewing some foods.
Strengthen and support the jawbone.	Do not support the jawbone.

What are Implant-supported Dentures?

Implant overdentures are dental devices that replace missing teeth in people who are either edentulous or on the verge of losing all their teeth.
Overdetures are tooth replacements that get snapped on to implants.
Usually two or three implants are placed in the jawbone to support the denture.
These are then topped by removable or fixed dentures.
Removable implant overdentures may be of two types:
- Implant-retained but supported by gums: The dentures rest directly on your gums and are held in place by implants that get osseintegrated with your jaw bone. The removable dentures are affixed with implants through special attachments that snap on to the implants.
- Bar-retained overdentures: The overdenture is fixed on a metal bar joined with the implants. This metal bar rests on the gum.
Implant-supported fixed dentures are dental prosthetics fixed on dental implants that have securely anchored into the jawbone after osseointegration. Unlike removable dentures which can be easily removed for cleaning them, fixed dentures can be removed only by a dental doctor.

Why Opt for Overdentures?

No hassle of slipping out: Traditional dentures, especially in the lower jaws, are known to pop out of the mouth. Overdentures are held in place securely by implants and give you the freedom of enjoying the foods you like without any fear of your artificial teeth slipping out of the mouth. Overdentures also result in marked improvement in speech and appearance.
Better digestive health: While traditional dentures tend to be unstable because these rely on adhesives to remain in place, you may not be able to properly chew food. Implant-retained overdentures, on the other hand, are securely held by implants, thereby allowing you to chew food properly; this, in turn, promotes digestion.
Bone loss prevention: Conventional dentures are known to speed-up the process of loss of jaw bone. On the contrary, implant overdentures are known to decelerate and even stop the process of jaw bone loss.

FAQ – Overdentures
