Dental implants have been around for over fifty years, and are now considered the “standard of care,” meaning when you lose a tooth or teeth, dental implants are the best option, ahead of bridges and removable partial dentures. Dental implants feel and look like natural teeth. They can improve your chewing ability so that you can eat healthy foods.  And replacing missing teeth with implants can give you back your smile and your confidence.

Having healthy teeth and gums will help prevent bad breath, gum disease, tooth decay, and tooth loss. Those are important goals, but the benefits are deeper than that. In addition to maintaining a beautiful smile and the ability to enjoy good food, a healthy mouth may help you prevent major health issues as well.

Are you not happy with the fit, function, and esthetics of your removable dentures? You are not alone! Many patients who have lost all teeth in their mouth often object to wearing removable complete dentures, because they are not stable inside the mouth and they do not provide sufficient eating and speech capability. Most importantly, conventional dentures tend to get stained easily, and they require frequent repair or replacement.
What if you could get all your teeth replaced with a prosthesis that combines the benefits of dental implants with the time-tested conventional dentures, and that too in a single day? Yes, that’s possible. Say hello to TeethXpress.
