Philadelphia area Dentist describes Implant-Retained Dentures

Patients missing teeth may have to turn to prosthetic devices to repair and restore the function and beauty of their smiles. Dentures are common for individuals in the Philadelphia community who are interested in economical ways of replacing their missing teeth. Dentures have come a long way from the fake-looking appliances of years gone by. In fact, thanks to continued improvements in materials and techniques, dentures look more natural than ever. Dr. David Spilkia of David Spilkia Family and Cosmetic Dentistry provides some of the best quality dentures in the area.
 
Dentures come in many different types, partial, full, and implant retained dentures. Implant retained dentures are gaining popularity for patients who have struggled with traditional full dentures and have been unhappy with their fit and function. Implant retained dentures use dental implants to hold them in place. Dental implants are metal posts, which a dentist will place during oral surgery. They fuse to the surrounding bone, creating excellent stability and they can be restored with bridges, crowns, or dentures. Implant retained dentures are the best way of replacing an entire arch of teeth on the top or bottom. They provide excellent strength and durability and allow patients to enjoy their favorite foods without feeling self-conscious about loose or ill-fitting dentures.
 
Dr. David Spilkia offers a variety of ways for patients to replace missing teeth, and may suggest implant retained dentures for patients who are dealing with the disadvantages that regular dentures may pose. Other options, such as traditional dental implants and bridges, are better suited for patients who are missing one or multiple teeth within the arch Discussing restoration with a quality dentist is essential for making a knowledgeable decision regarding the health and beauty of the smile.
