Many denture users develop habits to hold their dentures in place when eating, speaking or laughing. These habits may lead to muscle strain, bruxism and mouth tissue sensitivity. Dental implants can be used to hold the denture in place to allow normal movement and facial muscles to relax. Patients often remark on how similar the dental implant feels to their own natural teeth because they are now able to eat, laugh and speak with confidence. Dental implants have a long demonstrated rate of clinical success. Your denturist can refer you to a qualified dentist for implant placement.
