Comfort, stability, and natural appearance matter most when replacing missing teeth. At The Denture Place, we provide high-quality implant-supported dentures for Tampa patients who want a secure, long-lasting solution that feels like their natural smile.
Led by Dr. Yalissy Quintero Martinez and supported by our skilled team, we offer a full range of denture solutions tailored to each patient’s needs.
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures combine the benefits of dental implants with the full-arch coverage of dentures. Instead of resting solely on your gums, these dentures anchor to dental implants surgically placed into your jawbone. This design:
- Improves stability so dentures don’t slip or shift
- Allows for stronger biting and chewing
- Preserves bone structure in the jaw
- Provides a more natural look and feel
At The Denture Place, Dr. Yalissy Quintero Martinez can restore your smile with a custom denture that blends seamlessly with your features.
Why Tampa Residents Choose Implant-Supported Dentures
Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, implant-supported dentures attach securely to dental implants embedded in the jawbone, giving you a smile that feels and functions like natural teeth.
Here are some of the key reasons why more Tampa residents are choosing implant-supported dentures:
1. Superior Stability
One of the biggest challenges with traditional dentures is the potential for slipping or shifting during everyday activities such as talking, eating, or laughing. This can cause embarrassment and discomfort. Implant-supported dentures eliminate this concern because they anchor firmly into dental implants placed in your jawbone. This secure foundation means your dentures stay exactly where they should, providing confidence and peace of mind throughout your daily interactions.
2. Better Chewing Power
Eating your favorite foods should never be a source of worry. Traditional dentures can limit the types of food you feel comfortable eating due to their instability and reduced biting force. Implant-supported dentures restore much of the chewing power you had with natural teeth, allowing you to enjoy a wider variety of foods — from crunchy fresh apples to hearty grilled meats — without hesitation. This improvement in function enhances your diet and supports better overall nutrition and health.
3. Jawbone Preservation
When teeth are missing, the jawbone can deteriorate over time due to a lack of stimulation. Traditional dentures rest on the gums and do not provide this vital stimulation, often leading to bone loss and changes in facial structure. Implant-supported dentures rely on dental implants surgically placed into the jawbone, which mimic the natural roots of teeth. These implants stimulate the bone and help maintain its density and strength, preserving your facial contours and preventing the sunken look that can occur with bone loss.
4. Natural Look and Feel
Beyond function, implant-supported dentures excel in aesthetics. These dentures are custom-designed to match your natural tooth shape, size, and color, ensuring a seamless and beautiful appearance. Because they are securely anchored, they feel more like natural teeth than traditional dentures. This natural look and feel can dramatically improve self-confidence, allowing you to smile, speak, and socialize without worry.
5. Long-Term Investment
While implant-supported dentures may require a higher initial investment than traditional dentures, they often prove more cost-effective in the long run. These dentures tend to last longer and require fewer repairs or adjustments. The durability of dental implants means you can enjoy years of reliable function and comfort, reducing the need for frequent dental visits or replacements.
Are You a Candidate for Implant-Supported Dentures?
You may be an excellent candidate if you:
- Have multiple missing teeth or no teeth in an arch
- Want more stability than traditional dentures can offer
- Have healthy gums and adequate jawbone density (or are willing to undergo bone grafting)
- Don’t smoke or are willing to quit before surgery
Caring for Your Implant-Supported Dentures
Proper care ensures your dentures and implants last as long as possible:
- Brush daily with a soft-bristle brush
- Clean around implant attachments carefully
- Visit us regularly for checkups and professional cleanings
- Avoid chewing on hard objects like ice or pens
Following these steps keeps your smile healthy and functional for years.
