Important things to consider when choosing between dentures and implants
Deciding between dentures and implants is not always an easy feat. Dentures, on the one hand, offer a cheaper alternative and a faster overall process, but they cannot compare to the strength, longevity and ease of implants – especially in full mouth cases, where adhesives and suction are all you can rely on to keep your denture in place.
Dental implants, however, are more of an investment, and the entire process takes around three months, so the implant cannot completely integrate with the bone in your jaw.
As we treat thousands of patients with missing teeth everywhere, providing them with both denture and implant solutions (sometimes the two combined), we know exactly what matters to patients and the important boxes they want to tick. And we’ve broken them points down in this article so you can truly understand which will be better for your unique position.
