teeth Eat. Smile. Kiss.a conversation with Gregg C. Hendrickson DDSabout dental implants and implant supported denturesDid you know that one in four seniorcitizens are missing at least one tooth?(Some are missing upwards of ten.)Add in how many seniors aredissatisfied with their dentures and I'llbet that number increases to one inthree!Many seniors have turned to DentalImplants and Implant SupportedDentures to solve their smile anddenture issues. I asked local dentist,Gregg Hendrickson about implants.Why Dental Implants?Dental Implants can restore smiles toa beautiful state. I can restore a singletooth or your entire mouth. It justdepends on what a client wants toachieve. Most clients want to have agood looking smile, be able to eathealthy and nutritious food and don'twant a denture flopping around intheir mouth. Implants can fix all ofthose issues.Tell me about Implant Supported Dentures.My clients love these! Implantsupported dentures are essentiallydentures that snap or screw intoimplants. If you choose the snap inimplant supported denture you cantake them in or out of your mouth. Ifyou choose the screw in Implantsupported denture they arepermanently attached to yourimplants and only your dentist canremove them. Both options arefantastic. The snap in option will costyou less than the screw in option.What Is the benefit of an Implant?A single tooth implant is straightforward. I am replacing a missingtooth that might show when a personsmiles. They get their complete smileback. No more covering their smilewith their hand when they talk or eat.What is the benefit of ImplantSupported Dentures?A glamorous smile that you can eatand talk with! Many times, clients areeither dissatisfied with their denture orare missing enough teeth to want adenture. We'll talk about giving thema beautiful smile. We'll talk abouthaving teeth securely in their mouthso their denture doesn't slosh around.Through the process of restoring theirteeth we really are restoring theirconfidence and their zest for life. Theycan eat again, smile again, they caneven kiss again! For some people it's areturn to romance in their life.What about these places offeringteeth in a day?In my opinion, I wouldn't send myfriends or family there. When you putan implant into bone, your bone needstime to heal. Bone healing takesanywhere from three to six months. Itis that simple. Your natural teethweren't made in a day and it is myopinion that you shouldn't be havingsurgery and replacement teeth all in aday. It didn't take a day to lose yourteeth and I personally not comfortablewith any process that says you canhave them all back in a day.advertisementWe are loving life!What advice would you give topeople looking for implants?Do your homework. Find out whodoes implants in your area, andschedule a consultation. Don't feelpressured. Make sure you meet withthe dentist.
