It doesn\u2019t take long before they get to the point where they are unhappy wearing it and hate having to remove it at night.\u00a0 Worse still, some patients don\u2019t remove them at night and then suffer the consequences that can include infection, sore gums and bad breath.\u00a0 Finally, they crave something \u201cfixed\u201d that is part of them.\u00a0Dental implants are great.This \u201cfixed\u201d solution (fitted permanently \u2013 not removable) may include the replacement of teeth\u200b using crowns that are fixed to Titanium implants.\u00a0 Dental implants are now the most advanced form of tooth replacement and can be used in many ways to replace a single tooth, a number of teeth next to each other, or even a complete arch of teeth.Sometimes it is possible to place the implants at the same time as the teeth are removed.\u00a0 This can reduce the healing time enormously and allow the patient to have their replacement teeth within only a few months.\u00a0 In rare cases, it can even be possible to provide the replacement teeth within 48 hours.Implants are a very popular and versatile way to replace teeth, but it must be remembered that they should not be placed into patients who have active gum disease\u00a0with destructive gum inflammation present known as Periodontitis.\u00a0 However, once a \u201cGum-Disease-Patient\u201d has been treated and successfully stabilised, then they can go ahead with implant dentistry.One of the most useful techniques for patients who have suffered severe and extensive Periodontitis with extensive tooth loss is to have their dentures attached to them using what is called \u201cPrecision Attachments\u201d.\u00a0 These two-part devices are used to keep the denture in the mouth and prevent it moving during eating, speaking and laughing.\u00a0 One part is screwed onto the implant that is placed into the jaw bone and the other part is fitted into the denture and the two connect together when the denture is inserted.\u00a0 The denture is then referred to an \u201cOver-denture\u201d as it is worn \u201cover\u201d implants to keep it in the mouth.Over-dentures are most commonly used in the lower jaw where dentures, unfortunately, move around a great deal due to all the moving structures around them including the lips, cheeks, and of course the tongue.If you have a friend or family member who has problems wearing their denture, this may be the solution they have waiting for.\u00a0 They should contact us and we can explain what can be done to make their quality of life far better.All these implant treatment techniques are available at NQ Surgical Dentistry and we are always happy to advise on the best solution to a patient\u2019s individual dental problems.Contact the friendly team at NQ Surgical Dentistry today on\u00a0(07) 4725 1656 or call in to see us at\u00a0183 Kings Rd, Pimlico QLD 4812[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243;
