Comparing Fixed Teeth Vs. Removable
In general, you have two options for replacing your teeth: fixed and removable. You’re aware of dentures, which is the lesser option of tooth replacement, in terms of both cost and functionality. These artificial teeth are set on an acrylic base that fits over your gums. They return only 20% of natural function and will eventually require repairing and replacement. The next tier of solutions is certainly a functional upgrade, implant supported dentures are stabilized by two or more dental implants to restore 60% of dental function. They still consist of a removable acrylic denture and may crack or fracture over time.
The best choice for missing teeth are full mouth dental implants consisting of a fixed prosthetic bridge of teeth permanently supported by 4-8 dental implants. This solution restores over 98% of natural function with teeth precision-crafted to look, feel, and function like the real thing. You can eat without limitations, enhance your quality of life, and talk, laugh, and smile comfortably!
