Fixed Dentures

More Stability, Better Results

Traditional dentures are a quick and affordable replacement for missing teeth, but many patients find them to be uncomfortable and inconvenient. As a result, Dr. Akeel may suggest securing your dentures with dental implants for a more stable and long-lasting restoration.

Explore our guide to learn about the many benefits of implant-supported fixed dentures.

Benefits of Fixed Dentures

Implant-supported fixed dentures offer several unique advantages that traditional dentures can’t match, including:

Our Fixed Dentures Treatment Process

The procedure begins with Dr. Akeel placing two to six dental implants in your jaw, depending on how many teeth you’re replacing and how much healthy bone tissue you have in your jaw.

After the surgery is finished, you’ll need to allow three to six months for your implants to fuse with your jawbone. This process is called osseointegration and it’s the key to your restoration’s stability.

While you wait for your customized dentures, we can provide you with a temporary restoration so you don’t have to live with gaps in your smile.

Once your mouth is fully healed, you can return to our office and Dr. Akeel will finish your treatment. At this point, all that’s left to do is enjoy your sparkling new smile.
