Transform Your Smile with Implant Supported Dentures
At our Jupiter, FL dental office, we understand the importance of a healthy, confident smile. Implant-supported dentures offer a fantastic solution for those looking to restore their full smile with lasting stability and a natural appearance. Unlike traditional dentures, implant-supported dentures are designed to securely snap into place, providing enhanced comfort, functionality, and aesthetics.
Why Choose Implant Supported Dentures?
Implant supported dentures, often referred to as “snap in dentures” are preferred by many dental patients who are missing all of their teeth but want a more stable replacement option than traditional dentures provide. Unlike regular dentures, which rest on the gums unsupported, an implant supported denture is anchored in place by titanium rods surgically embedded into the jaw bone. This prevents the dentures from slipping or becoming loose during wear. Implant supported dentures offer many benefits, including:
- Enhanced Stability: Implant-supported dentures snap securely into place, providing greater stability compared to traditional dentures, with minimal slipping or movement.
- Improved Comfort: Designed to fit snugly over implants, these dentures reduce gum irritation and provide a more natural, comfortable feel.
- Better Chewing and Speech: Implant-supported dentures improve chewing ability, allowing you to enjoy a wider range of foods with ease and speak confidently without worrying about denture movement.
- Natural Aesthetics: The secure fit offers a more natural look, aligning with facial structure and giving a youthful appearance.
- Bone Health Preservation: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, helping to maintain bone density and prevent the bone loss often associated with traditional dentures.
- Long-Term Durability: With proper care, implant-supported dentures can last for many years, making them a lasting investment in your smile.
- Easy Maintenance: Snap-in dentures are easy to clean and maintain, similar to caring for natural teeth.
- Increased Confidence: Enjoy a renewed sense of confidence with a smile that feels secure, looks natural, and supports daily activities without worry.
Full Mouth Implants: A Complete Smile Restoration
For patients seeking a complete transformation, full mouth implants are an ideal option. Unlike individual implants for each tooth, full mouth implants use strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of dentures. This approach offers a cost-effective, comprehensive solution for restoring your entire smile, allowing patients to enjoy the benefits of both stability and aesthetics. Our Jupiter, FL dental office specializes in providing full mouth implants tailored to your unique needs, ensuring comfort, functionality, and a beautiful result.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a candidate for implant supported dentures?
You may be a candidate for an implant supported denture if you are missing all of your upper or lower teeth and have enough jawbone to support artificial tooth roots. If you don’t have sufficient bone structure, your Jupiter dentist may recommend undergoing a grafting procedure to help build up the jaw in preparation for implants. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Schulert to find out if implant supported dentures are the right option for you.
What should I expect if I undergo an implant procedure?
Getting implant supported dentures is a multi-step process that generally requires 2 in-office surgeries performed several months apart. During the first visit, your dental implants will be secured within their designated locations inside the jaw. They will then be left to heal over a period of 6 to 9 months. You may be fitted for temporary dentures to wear during this time. At the conclusion of your waiting period, you’ll return to your provider’s office to have the implants re-exposed and either an abutment secured to them. Lastly, you’ll be fitted for your final dentures, which will contain connective hardware for easy attachment.
How will I need to care for my implant supported dentures?
Although implant-supported dentures are designed to remain in place without slipping, they must be removed each night for cleaning. You’ll also need to carefully brush around each attachment and soak them nightly.
