If you’re missing most or all of your teeth, there are several tooth replacement options that may benefit you. Many patients are turning to Hybrid Implant Dentures, an innovative solution for replacing full rows of teeth. So what are they and why are they quickly becoming the most sought-after tooth replacement option for dental patients?
Here’s what you need to know:
What are Hybrid Implant Dentures?
As the name implies, hybrid implant dentures are dentures that are fixed onto implants. And just like regular dentures, hybrid implant dentures use a full set of high-quality prosthetics to replace full rows of teeth.
However, unlike regular dentures, hybrid implant dentures are fixed into your mouth using a set of six dental implants – titanium posts that fuse with your jaw. In other words, the dental implants support a laboratory set of teeth. As a consequence, the denture is permanently fixed in one place, will not move around, and can only be removed by a dentist.
