WHY DENTAL IMPLANTS ARE A GOOD CHOICE

Implant Supported Dentures Are a Better Solution

Traditional dentures are a useful, but temporary solution to tooth loss. However, they can often lead to complications such as discomfort, irritation, and bone loss over extended periods of time. Fortunately, Dr. Adam Tan offers a solution known as a Locator Denture in Barrie, Ontario.

How Does It Work?

Dental Implants Meet Dentures

Dr. Adam Tan offers a solution known as a “locator overdenture”, which is a dental implant retained denture. This is an innovative solution that combines the convenience of a removable denture with the stability and longevity of dental implants.

This solution allows adjustments for the degree of denture retention and in some cases, there is so much retention that our patients can only remove their denture with a special tool (provided at no cost). In addition, we’re able to remove the bulk of acrylic around the edges of the denture for improved comfort, meaning:

• No more painful denture sores
• No more embarrassing loose, ill fitting dentures
• No more denture clicking
• No more denture discomfort
• No more use of dental paste
• And in some cases, no more plate to cover the roof of the mouth that block the taste and texture of your food or that could cause you to gag.

Wouldn’t life be more comfortable? And don’t you deserve to be confident?

INTRODUCING CONFIDENTURE

The Gold Standard of Dentures

Dr. Tan has also developed a unique ConfidentURe® process that will help you get those high-quality results fast.

The ConfidentURe® process includes an upgraded denture retention system that is even stronger and longer lasting, compared to the current ‘gold’ standard and provides a lifetime warranty for the dental implant and an amazing 10-year warranty on the anchoring system, the first of its kind in Canada! Benefits of Implant Supported Dentures include:

• Comparatively lower cost
• Inspiring denture stability
• Bone loss is prevented
• Increased comfort
• Taste your food again
• Less impingement of the tongue

Understanding Implant Supported Dentures

Clarifying Some of the Finer Points

Implant supported dentures are used to replace multiple missing teeth. They are held in place by special implants that are secured in the jawbone. Implant supported dentures can be the best solution for missing multiple teeth when the patient needs or wants them to be removable.

Implant supported dentures combine the stability of dental implants with the cost-effectiveness of dentures. Using as few as two dental implants for the lower jaw, implant supported dentures don’t slip, or exert pressure on your gums the way traditional dentures do. For the upper jaw, implant supported dentures typically require more implants simply because there are aesthetic concerns, and because we’re working in an area where your sinuses and speech are involved.
