Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported dentures are over-dentures fixed to the gums by mini implants. For patients with an uncomfortable or loose-fitting denture, stabilizing it with mini implants can be a more comfortable and functional solution.

Mini implants are placed in the jaw where they are anchored firmly in the surrounding bone. Attachments are placed in the underside of the denture that connect to the implants. When placed in the mouth, the denture snaps onto the implants, which keep it stable and secure.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF DENTURES SUPPORTED BY MINI IMPLANTS?

People who opt for implant-supported dentures are more confident when they talk, laugh, and eat in public. You’ll never have to worry about your false teeth slipping or falling out while you eat or are engaged in conversation.
Implant-supported dentures are far more comfortable because they are secure and feel like natural teeth. There is also less irritation of gum tissue; patients who have conventional dentures often suffer pain and canker sores.
Implant-supported dentures look more natural than conventional dentures because less plastic is needed for retention. Wearing implant-supported dentures can also help your appearance in the long term by preventing jaw shrinkage and bone loss.
Patients with conventional dentures have difficulty speaking clearly. Slurred speech and clicking noises are common problems. Implant-supported dentures can help you relax and talk easily with a more clear and natural voice.
Best of all, with implant-supported dentures, there is no need to use denture adhesives.

I have been going to Dr. Izadi since November of 2005. My two children see her as well. The visits are always very pleasant, as her staff is very friendly and efficient. Besides routine dental care, I have had crowns and bridgework done. I have been completely satisfied with the results. I highly recommend Dr. Izadi as your dentist; her attention to detail is exquisite. She never seems rushed and takes the time needed to satisfy both herself and you, the patient, that the result is the best that it can be. Her chairside manner is an example for all of us in the healthcare fields.

Dr. Izadi has been our dentist since she opened her office seven years ago in Lynnwood, and she is the best dentist of several we have had. She has done extensive work, including crowns, for both of us, always with excellent results. Not only are we happy to recommend her to others, we already have recommended her to our son and his wife, who also are now both regular patients of Dr. Izadi.

I have been a patient of Dr. Izadi since she first took over the business from Dr. Ehrlich in August 2000. I have been very happy with all of the work she has done: fillings, crowns, and cleanings. All pain-free. When Novocain is needed, she is very patient and makes sure the area is numb before giving the entire amount. I would highly recommend Dr. Izadi and her friendly, knowledgeable staff to all of my friends and family. I know they will be well taken care of.
