With careful planning and immediate temporary tooth placement, patients can leave the dental office with a fully functional smile, saving time and minimizing the waiting period for tooth replacement

The duration of the temporary teeth can vary, but they typically last for a few months until the final, permanent teeth are fabricated and attached to the implants.

• What are porcelain veneers, and how do they improve your smile before and after the procedure?

  Implant-supported dentures refer to a type of dental prosthesis that combines dentures with dental implants. These dentures are securely attached to dental implants placed in the jawbone, offering enhanced stability and function compared to traditional removable dentures.

• Are porcelain veneers suitable for everyone, or are there specific eligibility criteria?

  Implant-supported dentures vary from traditional dentures as they are affixed to dental implants rather than resting on the gums. This anchorage to dental implants, surgically positioned in the jawbone, provides a more secure and stable fit, leading to improved chewing and speaking abilities.

• What is the average cost of porcelain veneers?

  Implant-supported dentures are intended to be a long-term solution for tooth replacement. With proper care and maintenance, they can last for many years. However, the dentures themselves may require periodic replacement due to normal wear and tear. The dental implants, when well-maintained, can serve as a stable foundation for a lifetime.
