We understand that once you go through losing some of your teeth, you have some anxiety about losing additional teeth. You may figure that if you select a partial implant denture today, you will eventually need a full implant denture in the future and that it is just a matter of time before you lose the rest of your teeth. You may also assume that because you’re wearing a denture of any kind, you’re eventually going to experience the breakdown of your dental tissue, leaving you with an unhealthy, unattractive smile. We understand your thoughts, of course, but our Conroe, TX team would like to help you better understand how your choices will actually protect you.
You Can Stop Additional Loss With Good Habits
You might not realize that you can stop additional tooth loss with ease. Just because you have already lost teeth is not a defining predictor as to whether you will lose more teeth. It’s all about caring for your smile, keeping your tissues healthy, and that’s it. Aside from unexpected emergencies (as in, you end up getting hit in the mouth with a ball during a friendly game of baseball), you can avoid losing your teeth. Brush them as we suggest. Floss your smile, too! Don’t forget about your visits to see our team for cleanings and checkups. Done!
The Implants Supporting Your Partial Protect Your Jaw
As for worrying about your smile shrinking, looking worse over time, and your oral health declining due to your use of a partial implant denture, we remind you: The prosthetic and the implants are a very good idea! When you receive dental implants, they actually support your jaw health, so you won’t experience the deterioration responsible for a loss of tissue. Remember this, as you protect your oral health with dental care, for good results.
There’s No Worse Case Scenario
You may fear losing more teeth and dealing with the need for a full implant denture. As mentioned, there’s not a direct and unavoidable pathway to losing all of your teeth and requiring complete replacement. However, we also remind you that if this does occur for any reason, this isn’t something to feel worried about. Don’t forget that the placement of a full denture with the support of dental implants can provide you with a full, secure, stable, functional, and beautiful smile! No matter what, we will be here to ensure you have a fantastic experience with your grin and your oral health!
