New permanent teeth-in-a-day for denture wearers
by Tarvo Puust DD

Innisfil Denture Clinic Any denture wearer can tell you that compared to natural teeth, dentures can be somewhat difficult to get used to. Your entire mouth goes through an adjustment period and your biting force is significantly reduced. Many denture wearers experience difficulties eating and speaking.

Sometimes there are denture adjustments that need to be made due to sore spots, and the fit will get looser over time, requiring relines. Some denture wearers worry about their denture falling out unexpectedly and so they resort to adhesives. Others dread the thought of anyone seeing them without their teeth.

With a denture your taste sensation changes as well. The denture may cover the roof of your mouth, making you more likely to over-salt your foods.

This can cause high blood pressure, and digestive problems.

It's amazing how much better food tastes when the top of your mouth isn¿t covered by a denture! Some denture wearers long for the feeling of having their healthy natural teeth back, however most believe that the only option is conventional implants which can cost upwards of $50,000. Traditional implant methods can also have long recovery periods, bone grafting and the possibility of those implants failing.

However, now you can get affordable, permanent teeth that are fully functional in just one treatment session, or what `are nicknamed, teeth-in-a-day. It is the answer to what so many people have been waiting for. In fact, you may be able to have steak for dinner that same evening!

This procedure has successful results on hundreds of patients in Canada, Europe, and the United States with an almost 100% success rate. This technique, called All-On- Four, is very innovative in that it coverts the existing denture into permanent, fully functional teeth in one day. There is no lengthy, painful healing period and there is minimal to no swelling. You will never have to take your teeth out again!

You will now be able to brush your teeth in your mouth, and not have to store them in a denture bath overnight. If you feel self conscious about the way you look without your teeth this may be the solution for you. This procedure costs about half of what traditional implants would cost.

For those of you who dread surgery, every effort is made so that you are pampered on your day of surgery. You will receive the white glove treatment. A limo will pick you up at your home and you will spend the day in a state of the art dental centre.

You will also see me, or your denturist, there as I will be converting your existing denture into the new permanent denture. Only four implants will be placed into dense bone using guided surgery by a specialized dental implant surgeon.
