So it’s not as common now as what it has been in the past, but many times people will lose all of their teeth, be it due to trauma or tooth decay or periodontal disease, but they end up having to have their teeth removed. And so the traditional way of replacing their teeth in a situation like that would be with a full denture, which is a removable appliance. And if you’re not able to chew your food well, it can affect your digestion, have an effect on your health. And so being able to, you know, to chew or masticate your food properly is very important. There are several variations to that, mostly utilizing dental implants to either help support the dentures in the mouth, to actually being screw-retained, fixed appliances to the implants in the mouth. And there are several combinations of those techniques. We would present your treatment options to you so you could make an informed decision on how you wanted to proceed here at Bautsch Family Dentistry.
