Risks of Untreated Tooth Loss
Tooth loss has an immediate and noticeable impact on the aesthetics of your smile. More than that, the loss of even one tooth can make eating and speaking with ease difficult. Did you also know that an incomplete smile can cause drastic and harmful changes to your oral health that can negatively impact your quality of life?
The following health risks and concerns are related to missing teeth:
With these and many more health risks caused by missing teeth, our office takes restorative dentistry very seriously. That is why our artfully designed dentures are so much more than false teeth. We use the most advanced dental technology available to craft a denture treatment plan that meets your oral health needs and achieves your goals for a beautiful, new smile.
Benefits of Dentures
Dentures allow you to chew and speak with confidence. The restorations also fill out your cheeks and leave you looking younger. Although these prosthetics are not considered cosmetic treatments, there are aesthetic benefits to eliminating gaps in your smile. Many of our Encinitas, CA, dental patients report feeling more confident after receiving their custom bridge or denture.
Our traditional dentures and partial dentures can be made quickly, allowing you to receive a custom total restoration in just a couple of weeks. You wonโt have to undergo any surgery for a return to functionality and appearance.
Dentures also do not have many candidacy requirements, so if you have many missing teeth, traditional dentures are easy to receive.
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Dental implants are small titanium posts that replace tooth roots. Implants stimulate jawbone growth and prevent jawbone atrophy. Many patients report that implant-retained prosthetics feel and function like natural teeth. Implant-supported dentures have increased functionality and help your jawbone maintain its density after severe tooth loss.
Implant-supported dentures are either permanently adhered to your implants or can snap on and off to offer the flexibility of removable dentures with the oral health benefits of implants.
The Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer unmatched stability and long-term health benefits for those experiencing extensive tooth loss. Because these dentures are anchored directly to dental implants placed in the jawbone, they feel more secure and natural than traditional removable denturesโno slipping, shifting, or need for adhesives.
Patients who choose implant-supported dentures often experience:
Improved Stability
Eat, speak, and laugh with confidenceโyour dentures stay firmly in place throughout the day.
More Natural Function
These restorations restore nearly full bite strength, allowing you to enjoy a wider variety of foods.
Jawbone Preservation
Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, helping prevent bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
Enhanced Comfort
With no need for adhesives or pressure on the gums, implant-supported dentures often feel more comfortable.
A Long-Term Solution
With proper care, implants can last for decades, offering lasting support for your denture.
For patients who qualify, implant-supported dentures are often the recommended option because they closely replicate the function of natural teeth. Whether fixed in place or removable, they offer a dependable and restorative solution that protects both your oral health and your confidence.

Caring for Your Dentures
Caring for implant-supported and traditional dentures is easy. For both options, you will need to continue to brush your teeth and use mouthwash. Removable dentures should be removed each night and rinsed in cold water, and then soaked in denture cleaner overnight. You can place them back in your smile in the morning.
Make sure to maintain your visits with Dr. Vakilian and her team. Repairing a denture is easier than replacing it, and oral health concerns can still damage your dentures. She can treat these issues and make adjustments during a routine visit. If you are concerned or notice damage to your denture sooner than a routine appointment, do not hesitate to schedule an appointment.

Dr. Vakilian loves to help patients restore the functionality of their smile. She will not shy away from complicated cases; in fact, she loves to focus on both the art and complexity of dentistry.

Along with her training, she offers technology and comfort options such as sedation dentistry. Our office technology includes digital impressions and CBCT imaging to make the process as easy and comfortable for you as possible.
