Attention Denture
Wearers!
Do you really like your dentures? Do you
know that every day you wear any removable denture
that your bone slowly "melts" away? That's why
your lips are disappearing - getting thinner
and thinner.
And, ladies haven't you noticed that you
have to overdraw your lipstick to look like
you have lips? The lower jaw is getting closer
to the upper one little by little - the bone
is "melting" away.
Not to worry! Chance are that with the use
of implants we can restore complete function
and esthetics - and your lips! you will be able
to speak, sing, and eat anything a person with
natural teeth can.
Remember: "Dental implants have the highest
success rate for any load-bearing implant in
the realm of medicine." With today's materials
and advanced techniques the 10 year success rate
is over 90 percent.
"Dentistry is not expensive - neglect is."
Mini Implants
Mini implants are the latest innovation
in the exploding field of implant dentistry.
Loose-fitting, full and partial dentures can
now be stabilized by locking into these
"minis".
In one painless visit, the existing
denture can be secured and adapted to the
implants. No more loose, painful and
unattractive teeth. And all this for a
reasonable fee.
The average denture-wearer has dentures
for 18 years, and spends a combined $64
million per year on denture adhesives. They
can't eat what they would like to, and they
can't talk or laugh without the nagging
worry that their dentures might pop out.
Dentures are usually uncomfortable to wear,
always cause progressive bone loss, and are
a hassle to deal with.
With success rates for implants in the 90
percent range, payment options and one visit
appointments, there is no longer any reason
to suffer.
Regain confidence with eating, smiling
and speaking properly.
