If you’re struggling with traditional upper dentures, you’re not alone. Many people find that dentures can be uncomfortable, unstable, or simply inconvenient. At Dentistry at Golden Ridge in Golden, Colorado, Drs. Jamie Richard and Christina VerSchave offer dental implants for upper dentures—a modern solution to improve your comfort, confidence, and oral health. Dental implants provide a secure foundation for dentures, helping you regain a natural-looking and fully functional smile.
Here are the top five reasons why dental implants are the best choice for your upper dentures.
One of the most common complaints about traditional dentures is that they can slip, shift, or make noise while talking or eating. Dental implants anchor your upper dentures firmly, eliminating slipping and embarrassing clicks. This stability lets you enjoy your favorite foods and speak clearly without worrying about your dentures moving around.
Dental implants closely mimic the function and appearance of natural teeth. When implants support your upper dentures, they feel more like your own teeth—both in how they look and feel in your mouth. This can boost your confidence and make your smile look healthier and more vibrant.
When you lose teeth, the bone that once supported them deteriorates. Traditional dentures sit on top of the gums and don’t stimulate the jawbone, which can lead to further bone loss over time. Dental implants act like natural tooth roots, stimulating your jawbone and helping preserve its strength and shape. This improves facial structure and extends the life of your dentures.
Dental implants are a durable solution. With proper care, implants can last many years—even a lifetime—making them a worthwhile investment in your oral health. Unlike traditional dentures that may need frequent adjustments or replacements, implant-supported dentures offer stability and longevity.
Dental implants help maintain the health of your surrounding teeth and gums. Unlike some denture options that rely on adhesives or can cause irritation, implants integrate directly with your jawbone without damaging adjacent teeth. This reduces the risk of gum infections and keeps your mouth healthier overall.
Choosing dental implants for your upper dentures is a smart way to enhance your quality of life and restore your smile’s function and beauty. At Dentistry at Golden Ridge in Golden, CO, our experienced team guides you through every step—from consultation to the final fitting—to ensure you get the best results possible.
