Find Out Today"},"content":{"rendered":"When it comes to big improvements in dentistry, there\u2019s no doubt it: we\u2019ve made incredible strides in tooth replacement over the last couple of decades. Today, missing teeth can be restored far more comfortably and affordably than ever before. These aren\u2019t your grandmother\u2019s dentures — keep reading to learn about today\u2019s dentures and dental implants in Sunnyvale from <\/span>Dr. George T. Philip.<\/span><\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Dental Implants in Sunnyvale: Nature\u2019s Rival<\/span><\/h3>\r\nPatients missing one or more teeth can greatly benefit from dental implants, also known as nature\u2019s rival for their incredible replacement ability. Dental implants provide a prosthetic root for each replacement tooth (typically a dental crown). That\u2019s something that other options just don\u2019t do — and a factor that also promotes good oral health. <\/span>\r\n\r\nA typical candidate for dental implants is someone who has a healthy, intact jawbone, and who enjoys good oral and overall health. Patients suffering from gum disease or conditions which affect the immune system, like diabetes, are typically not successful candidates for traditional dental implants. <\/span>\r\n

These devices are expertly designed to fit your unique mouth, ensuring they won\u2019t slip around while you\u2019re eating or speaking, freeing you from a considerable amount of discomfort, stress and anxiety. <\/span>\r\n\r\nGood candidates for non-implant supported dentures are those who have lost a considerable amount of jawbone due to their missing teeth, or those whose poor oral or overall health will not promote crucial healing after the implant procedure. <\/span>\r\n

Implant-Supported Dentures Combine the Benefits of Both<\/span><\/h3>\r\nAdditionally, dentures can be supported by dental implants. It\u2019s a powerful combination — these implant-supported dentures give you the security you want, and provide your jaw the stimulation it needs to stay healthy. <\/span>\r\n\r\nBenefits of implant-supported dentures include the following:<\/span>\r\n
