In fact, at least 35 million Americans don\u2019t have any teeth left in one or both arches. If you\u2019re among those who have suffered the devastation of losing all your teeth, dentures were a convenient solution to rebuild your smile; however, they have their limitations. If you\u2019re finally ready to enjoy the next best thing to your natural teeth, there will be a transition from dentures in Vienna, VA to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tysonscornerdentists.com\/implant-dentistry.html\">dental implants<\/a>. Here\u2019s the information you need to ensure your journey is smooth.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Be Prepared for a Recovery Period<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dentures are a common solution to treat tooth loss because they are convenient since they don\u2019t require any surgery. While there isn\u2019t a recovery time, patients quickly find dentures have several disadvantages, which could have been avoided if they went the surgical route.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An implant-retained denture requires titanium posts to be surgically placed into your jawbone. As a result, it will take several months to heal from the procedure; however, you\u2019ll resolve the most common complaints of dentures, like slipping and irritation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Enjoy a Wider Variety of Foods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A traditional denture rests on top of your gum tissue and is held in place using suction or an adhesive while dental implants anchor your new teeth to your jawbone. This allows you to regain as much as 70% of your natural biting force to enjoy many of the foods you haven\u2019t been able to chew with your conventional denture. After your jawbone has healed, you\u2019ll be able to eat meats, raw vegetables, and more, but you\u2019ll need to stick to a soft diet until you\u2019ve fully recovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Ditch Complicated Cleaning Routines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many denture wearers complain about a lengthy cleaning process. You can skip the hassle with an implant-retained denture. You care for it just as you do your natural teeth. You don\u2019t need any messy adhesives or cleaning solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When brushing and flossing your replacement teeth, don\u2019t forget to clean around the abutments and dental implants to remove plaque and trapped food particles. Some patients find a waterflosser to be easier to use when cleaning the hard to reach places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. You Might Need Bone Grafting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Your jawbone has been slowly shrinking since you lost your first tooth, which is why your dentures don\u2019t fit as well over time. Therefore, you might need bone grafting to repair the damage before getting dental implants. Although it adds another step to your treatment plan, it\u2019s time well spent to ensure your new smile has the strong foundation it needs to thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will be a transition period, but don\u2019t let that deter you from replacing your missing teeth. In no time at all, you\u2019ll be chewing, speaking, and smiling without any concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Tysons Corner Dentists<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tysonscornerdentists.com\/meet-the-dentists.html\">Tysons Corner Dentists<\/a> combines the experience of 3 dentists, including a prosthodontist and periodontist.
