Implant Supported Dentures

Implant-Supported Dentures vs. Dental Implant

The main difference between implant-supported dentures and dental implants lies in their functionality and purpose. Implant-supported dentures are designed to replace multiple teeth at once, whereas individual dental implants are typically used to replace a single tooth.

 For example, the All-on-4 dental implant procedure can replace an entire row of teeth using fewer implants, while implant-supported dentures involve a different approach and can be fixed or removable, and available in partial or full sets. Implants are generally fixed crowns.
 
 There are also differences in cost and preferences. Patients often choose implant-supported dentures for added stability compared to traditional dentures, as well as the functional benefits they provide.
