IMPLANT SUPPORTED DENTURES
Implants are used to replace missing teeth with crowns instead of a fixed bridge or a removable partial denture.
Implants are also used to securely attach full dentures directly to the jaw, eliminating the need for adhesives that often fail, causing dentures to loosen. Implant supported dentures can be worn by anyone who doesn't have any teeth in their jaw (a current denture wearer), but has enough bone in their jaw to support dental implants.
