When most or all of your teeth are severely diseased, damaged, decayed or missing, you might wonder if dentures or a cumbersome bridge are your only choice. Fortunately, you might be a candidate for full mouth dental implants chicago. This type of denture makes use of four dental implants. Two of the implants are positioned at a perpendicular position to your jaw. The other two are positioned at an angle. These implants are small posts made of inert titanium. Once implanted your body grows new bone cells around them. Those cells anchor the posts into place.
While your jaws heal from the titanium post implants, a superstructure bridge is created for you in a dental lab. The framework has a full set of artificial tooth crowns on it. This superstructure has a one-piece framework that snaps into place on the titanium posts. Once your jaws are healed, the superstructure is put into place. The result is a full set of artificial teeth that look just like natural teeth. They also function like natural teeth. You will be able to bite into a fresh apple or raw carrot stick with confidence. Your smile will boost your self-confidence.
There are many benefits to these dentures. You will not have to worry about them slipping out of place. There will be no need for sloppy denture adhesives that make a mess and stop working after 12 to 14 hours. You will not have to worry about hot foods or drinks dissolving a denture adhesive.
