Overview

Implant supported dentures are secured by sturdy dental implants by the skilled dentists at Washington Center for Dentistry. Implant supported dentures snap in place to attach securely to the top of dental implants to provide a secure hold, eliminating the need for pastes or adhesives. In addition, implant supported dentures may be removed for regular cleaning. This is a great option for denture patients since many have suffered from the painful reality of dentures rocking in their mouths, experienced facial changes and the inability to eat certain foods. These teeth enhanced with our cosmetic dentistry and restorative techniques look and function like a patient’s own natural teeth.

What are the Benefits?

Here are the benefits of implant-supported dentures: 

  • No loose-fitting dentures.
  • No messy adhesives.
  • Easy cleaning.
  • Filled out facial contours to reverse the pace of bone and face shrinkage.
  • Dentures fixed in place that look and function just like real teeth.

I was in DC for a summer internship and had to make an emergency dental appointment for HORRIBLE tooth pain that basically sprang up overnight. The doctors here were able to see me same-day (and the front desk had such compassion for me!). The doctors were able to quickly diagnose my problem and refer me to a specialist for a root canal— the specialist was incredible! I also want to note that my dentist at home consistently dismissed my complaints of sensitivity and pain. The dentists at this office were able to determine within minutes that I needed a root canal! I would give more than 5 stars if I could, and will absolutely be searching for a new dentist, who is as good as the dentists at Washington Center for Dentistry, when I return home.

I really like the warm water polishing and of course the people are amazing! WCD has been my dentist for over a decade.

I have had repairs and cleanings at Washington Center for Dentistry, and every time the work has been superb, the experience flawless, and smoothly run, with an amazing finished product! Thank you, Dr Shlansky!

I’ve been to Dr Matin for two extraction and prep for a future implant. He is careful, concerned (answers all questions clearly and completely) and his work is impeccable. Best of all zero pain or discomfort after the operation- something not that common I think. Highly recommend

No one really wants to need gum grafts, but if you do need them, you want an excellent doctor to conduct the surgery. Dr. Matin is wonderful, warm, and top notch. He has done two grafts on me (five years ago; they’ve healed beautifully), and I’m scheduled for a third. Additionally, everyone in his office is so incredibly nice and helpful!

Truth About Dentures

If you wear dentures and are thinking about trying implant supported dentures, here’s the truth about the disadvantages of dentures.

  • We wish it weren’t so, but when people with missing teeth choose removable dentures, conditions don’t stay the same.
  • Dentures are not forever.
  • No matter how well a denture is made, the day arrives when the jaw has lost too much bone structure to provide a good fit.
  • Dentures get loose and no amount of adhesive can correct it. As a result, people have a hard time living with a denture that is uncomfortable and undependable.
  • Every day, there are more and more foods that are hard to chew.
  • People, who are unable to eat properly, often develop nutritional deficiencies from an inadequate or unhealthy diet.
  • Our social life and self-esteem suffer. Being unable to chew properly makes it difficult to be around family and friends since so much of what we do revolves around meals.

That’s why our goal is to guide patients toward dental implants before they reach this point where the negative outweighs the positive.
