Your treatment begins with a personalized consultation with Dr. Sal in Ashland, MA. Here, you’ll thoroughly discuss your current limitations and receive information on your options for full mouth tooth replacements. Most patients already qualify for implant supported dentures however if they don’t, they can typically receive one or more treatments to become one. We’ll take x-rays and impressions of your mouth to begin surgical planning and the creation of your new denture. In a separate appointment, you’ll receive your dental implant placement. Using a minimally invasive and predictable approach with sedation dentistry ensures your treatment is comfortable and pain-free.

Dental implants are placed in areas of your jawbone that have the most density and volume, usually in the front portion of your jaw. Depending on your unique case, your denture will be secured to these implants with either a ball or bar attachment and can be removable for cleaning or permanently attached. Once your surgery is complete, you’ll need three or more months to heal and for the implants to integrate securely with your bone. During your healing phase, you’ll typically receive a temporary denture to wear until your final denture is complete. In many cases, we’re able to repurpose your existing denture to secure it to your new implants.
