Permanent Dentures

Permanent dentures are custom-made dental prosthetics that are secured in place by dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures that rely solely on adhesives or suction for retention, implant dentures provide a stable and secure fit, allowing you to speak, eat, and smile with confidence.

When comparing permanent dentures to traditional removable dentures, permanent dentures often come out on top in terms of comfort, stability, and longevity. Permanent dentures are securely anchored, meaning there’s no need to worry about slipping or uncomfortable adhesives. They also provide better functionality for eating and speaking and help maintain jawbone density, something that traditional dentures cannot offer. While traditional dentures are a quicker, more affordable option upfront, permanent dentures are a superior long-term solution for those seeking a natural, confident smile.

The cost of permanent dentures can vary depending on factors such as the number of implants needed, the materials used, and the complexity of your case. While the initial investment may be higher than traditional dentures, the long-term benefits of comfort, function, and aesthetics make it a worthwhile investment. Greenville Implant Clinic offers a transparent pricing structure and flexible financing options to help make your treatment as accessible as possible.

Yes, permanent dentures are designed to look and feel just like natural teeth. The prosthetic teeth are custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of your original teeth, ensuring a seamless, lifelike appearance. Most people won’t be able to tell the difference between your permanent dentures and natural teeth, allowing you to smile with complete confidence.

Taking care of your permanent dentures is essential for ensuring their longevity. Here are some tips:

• Brush and floss daily: Just like with natural teeth, keeping your dentures and gums clean is crucial to prevent plaque buildup.
• Regular check-ups: Visit your dentist regularly to ensure that your implants and dentures remain in top condition.
• Avoid hard or sticky foods: While permanent dentures are durable, it’s best to avoid anything that could damage them.
• Use a soft-bristle toothbrush: This will help maintain the surface of your dentures without causing scratches. With proper care, your permanent dentures will provide you with many years of comfort and function.

Permanent dentures are more than just a cosmetic upgrade—they’re a life-changing investment in your oral health and quality of life. They offer superior stability, comfort, and functionality compared to removable options. Over time, the cost of maintaining traditional dentures—like adhesives, replacements, and repairs—can add up, while permanent dentures provide a long-lasting solution. With permanent dentures, you’ll enjoy the freedom to eat your favorite foods and smile confidently, making them well worth the investment.
