The number one complaint of denture wearers is stability. Whether the denture replaces just a few missing teeth or a whole arch, stability can be an issue. A denture that slips and wobbles causes sore spots, reduces chewing function, and can cause a great deal of embarrassment. When Los Angeles patients seek Dr. Don Mungcal’s advice, he often suggests dental implants as the best solution.
An implant is a tiny screw fabricated from strong, biocompatible material. In a brief surgical procedure, it is placed into the bone of the jaw. Over time, bone fuses with the implant. This creates a rock-solid foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture.
Because a dental implant becomes part of your body, with good oral hygiene and regular checkups, it can last a lifetime. You’ll enjoy favorite foods again, as well as smiling, speaking, and singing with confidence.
