Have you experienced tooth loss? If so, there's never been a better time to schedule an appointment with our dentist in South Bend, IN.

Regardless of your circumstances and level of tooth loss, our goal is to help you smile with confidence again.
Here's what you need to know about getting dentures at Select Dental Associates.
Implant-Supported Dentures
We're proud to offer implant-supported dentures to our patients in South Bend, IN, and surrounding areas. As the name suggests, an implant-supported denture is a denture that's held in place by four or six implants.
Unlike that rest on top of the gums, implant-supported dentures have a stable and permanent foundation in the jaw. This means that you'll never have to worry about your dentures slipping during an inopportune moment. Not to mention, implant-supported dentures prevent bone loss in the jaw, which is a common side effect of missing teeth.
Replacing missing teeth is important because it affects how well you are able to eat and what you can eat. This directly affects how your body gets nutrients from food, which impacts your overall health and well-being. Missing teeth can also affect your ability to talk. Dentures, especially when supported by dental implants, can help you communicate effectively.
Other Tooth Replacement Options
are great for replacing multiple teeth. That being said, you may wish to consider a dental bridge or single implant if you only need to replace one tooth. Depending on the status of your oral health, you may need one or more teeth removed before your denture can be placed.
