I have had my full upper/lower dentures for over a year and I hate them - they hurt, make me gag and I can't eat. Adhesives don't work for longer than an hour or so and when using the adhesive, I feel such an uncomfortable fullness in my mouth - will going to implants feel diffent?
Answer: Denture Implants Of course you can , there are several options and we can know what is the best for you if we see your xrays. But I believe you are a good candidate for regural dental implants (in that case an All On 4 or All On six could be a good solution) or if you do not have enough bone we could think about Snap On Dentures (Mini dental implant dentures) depends in your bone condition, your budget and what your want.You can get a good anchorage for biting and forget the dentures with palate that make you gag. You can bite, smile, laugh, chew freely with this mini implant supported dentures, will be placing the link for them, I hope this helps.

Answer: Possible to Go from Full Dentures to Implants? It is possible to go from dentures to implants, provided that you have adequate bone for implantation, or bone can be grafted to make the sites adequate. Implant supported prostheses can improve your quality of life greatly. You'll be able to speak and eat like never before. There are many different options with implants, whether you will have something that snaps into the implants and is removable, or if you have a prosthesis that is screwed in by your dentist and is not removable by you. Your dentist can review the different options and their costs for your specific situation. Hope this helps!

Answer: Switching from full dentures to dental implant supported dentures Going to implants will change your life. You can have 3-4 implants placed in the bottom jaw and maybe another 3-4 in the upper jaw. The current dentures you have can be relieved and retrofit back over the implants. Your current dentures probably slip around your mouth like a "hockey puck". This will not happen with dental implants. You will be abel to chew anything, biting into corn on the cob, apples and chew steak off the bone. A truly life changing experience which will give you the function, comfort and look you are seeking.

Answer: Get Dental Implants to Get Rid of Your Dentures
You can absolutely get dental implants to replace you dentures. A prosthesis retained by dental implants allows a less bulky prosthesis or replacement teeth. This will get rid of the "fullness" you write about. I have yet to meet a patient that does not like there dental implants better than a denture. There are several different ways to restore your teeth on dental implants and all have different costs associated with them. Have a consult with a Board Certified Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon to discuss your options. I am sure you will not be disappointed. Not only will you look better, you will feel better

Answer: Replacing dentures with dental implants
You are probably an ideal candidate for dental implants. By placing 4 implants in each arch, you can have a set of natural looking teeth placed that attach directly to the implants. No more difficulty eating or speaking or uncomfortable fullness in your mouth. It can be a second chance at having teeth again. I recommend having an evaluation done to determine if implants are an option for you. It could dramatically change your quality of life.
