Why old fashioned dentures are not the answer.
Unsecured dentures are an old-fashioned solution for people who have lost all of their teeth. Unfortunately, you may find that wearing unsecured dentures can be painful, inconvenient and awkward. Such dentures make it difficult to chew a variety of foods, which can stop you from eating many of the foods you once enjoyed. Wearing dentures may also affect how you pronounce words, and therefore the way you speak.

Knox Terrace Dental can help with modern implant solutions.
A variety of modern dental implant- based tooth replacement solutions are available. Any of these solutions can dramatically improve your quality of life; such as enabling proper chewing and speaking; increasing comfort and self confidence, and encouraging the consumption of a wider variety of foods.

Ask Dr Speechley and Dr Sansil for the solution that is right for you.

Removable implant overdentures provide stability where new teeth are attached to two or more dental implants, making this a cost-effective option. You can chew with confidence a variety of foods and your sense of taste is unaffected. Your teeth can be removed for cleaning and the need for denture adhesives is eliminated.

Removable overdentures on an implant bar.
For an even more secure fit, a dental bar is fixed to your jawbone with two or more implants, providing stronger support for your removable dentures. Your new teeth can be removed for cleaning.

Fixed implant supported bridges are a more durable solution with natural looking replacement teeth, secured on four or more dental implants. This solution stimulates bone maintenance, restores chewing function, and maintains taste sensation.
