Implant-Supported Bridges

Modern dentures are vastly superior to the ones we associate with George Washington. However, they still depend on a framework that rests on your gums to support artificial teeth that look and function naturally.

At Innovation Dental Group, we've taken these improvements one step further by offering implant-supported full and partial bridges. These eliminate the insecurity of adhesives and other methods which hold old-style dentures in place: no more slipping or irritated gums. Instead, you'll enjoy a bridge that is as stable as natural teeth because they connect directly to your jawbone.

Replacement Teeth Construction and Materials

Dentures are made of acrylic with two main portions: the artificial teeth and the underlying pink structure. While traditional dentures fit over and rest upon your gums, we prefer complete implant supported bridges that improve every aspect of tooth replacement. Our implant supported bridges will be shaped like a horseshoe eliminating denture acrylic from your palate, or the roof of your moth to leave room for your tongue. 

We can create your implant bridge from a high-end polymer from porcelain, or a combination of the two. 

Partial Dentures Can Take Advantage of Dental Implant Technology

When we make a partial denture, we may use a metal and acrylic composition or build it entirely out of acrylic with dental implant attachments. Your specific needs and anatomy will dictate how we design your partial denture. Dr. Schillinger's team will construct an attractive partial denture that preserves your remaining teeth and doesn't harm your oral tissues.

We use our design skills when designing your partial denture so that the chewing forces are evenly distributed over the entire surface. This avoids stressing your remaining natural teeth and helps equalize these forces.

Your partial denture's framework can be composed of metal as they are structurally superior. In addition, they are thinner and more hygienic than acrylic options. Our team will work with you to determine the appropriate tooth replacement choice for your situation.
