Frequently asked questions about Implant-Supported Dentures

Are implant-supported dentures worth it?

Implant supported dentures are often considered worth it because they provide significantly greater stability and function compared with traditional dentures. Implant supported dentures attach securely to dental implants placed in the jawbone, which prevents slipping and improves chewing ability.

Because implant supported dentures are supported by the jawbone rather than resting on the gums alone, they can also help maintain bone structure and long-term oral health.
Implant supported dentures generally allow patients to eat tougher foods, including steak, once the implants have fully healed and integrated with the jawbone. Implant supported dentures provide strong anchorage through dental implants, which increases chewing efficiency compared with conventional dentures.

After treatment, dentists usually recommend starting with softer foods while the mouth adjusts and then gradually returning to a normal diet. With proper healing and care, implant supported dentures can restore the ability to chew comfortably and enjoy a wider variety of foods that may have been difficult to eat with loose dentures.

Implant supported dentures can last many years when properly maintained, although different parts of the treatment have different lifespans. The dental implants supporting implant supported dentures are designed to function long-term when healthy bone and gums are maintained.

Whether you can sleep with implant supported dentures depends on the type of denture used. Fixed implant supported dentures are attached permanently to dental implants and typically remain in place day and night, functioning similarly to natural teeth.
