Dentures have long been an ideal way for people to replace missing teeth. While dental implants are the most ideal tooth replacement, they are expensive and not feasible for everyone. Dentures are removable false teeth made from acrylic and/or metal that fit into the mouth to create the appearance of a complete smile.

Dentures are a wonderful method to attractively replace missing teeth, but they are not always easy to adjust to right away. Dentures are foreign objects within the mouth, and unfortunately they cannot duplicate the exact function and feel of natural teeth.

While it is true that dental implants have been touted as the most significant advancement in dental history, they do still have both advantages and disadvantages. It is important that all patients who are interested in dental implants compare the pros and cons of this tooth replacement option and compare them against other options that are available to them.

There are an estimated 200,000 dentists in the United States, yet fewer than 4,000 of them specialize in prosthodontics. At Georgia Denture & Implant Specialists we are proud to be a full service private practice that concentrates in helping patients with dentures, partials, and dental implants.

Dental implants are touted as the most advanced tooth loss solution to ever be devised. It is a solution that provides a permanent tooth replacement option for those who have lost one tooth, as well as for those who have lost multiple – or all – teeth.

Before the 1940s, regular dental visits were not common practice and dental diseases were widespread. This caused a great deal of people – of all ages and backgrounds – to lose their teeth or the need for them to be extracted.
