Traditional dentures are in and of themselves a miracle in restorative dentistry. They allow people who have lost all or most of their teeth to continue their normal eating habits with as close to normal functionality as possible. While dentures have been available in some form for literally centuries, it is only relatively recently that dentures have been customized to fit snugly in a patient's mouth. However, even with a personalized fitting, dentures are not without shortcomings. Many patients have complaints about dentures unintentionally slipping out of place when eating or talking. This can be especially embarrassing when the company around you had not known you wore dentures.

To provide full functionality Diamond Bar Surgery Center offers the newest development in denture technology called implant dentures. Dr. Adams uses medical grade titanium implants (the same used for dental implants) to create a device that locks with the dentures and holds them firmly in position. Two implants are anchored into the roof of the mouth and the protruding implants are connected with a small bar. The procedure is repeated if lower dentures are present. The bar secures with a piece on the denture plate so it will never slip out of place. If you are unsatisfied with your traditional dentures, and have an interest in getting implants, contact Dr. Adams who is a leading provider of implant dentures in the Diamond Bar, Rowland Heights, Chino Hills, and Walnut, CA areas.
