Implant overdentures are a type of dental prosthetic that uses dental implants as anchors to secure and stabilize dentures in place. Unlike traditional dentures, which sit on the gums and rely on suction and adhesives to stay in place, implant overdentures snap onto dental implants that have been surgically placed into the jawbone.
The process of getting implant overdentures typically involves several steps:

• 1.Initial consultation and evaluation: A dental professional will evaluate the patient's oral health and determine if they are a candidate for implant overdentures. This may involve taking x-rays and other imaging tests to assess bone density and gum health.
• 2.Implant placement: Dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, typically at the front of the mouth, where bone density is higher.
• 3.Healing and integration: The implants need time to fuse with the surrounding bone tissue, a process called osseointegration. This can take several months, during which time the patient may wear temporary dentures.
• 4.Attachment of abutments: Once the implants have fully integrated, abutments are attached to the implants. These are small connectors that protrude above the gumline and serve as attachment points for the denture.
• 5.Denture fabrication: A custom denture is fabricated to fit the patient's mouth and attach to the abutments. The denture is designed to snap onto the abutments, providing stability and preventing slipping or shifting.

However, implant overdentures are not suitable for everyone and require careful evaluation and planning by a dental professional. Proper oral hygiene and regular checkups are essential for the long-term success of implant overdentures. Visit us today for the best Overdentures treatment in Wilson Garden.
