In this video, Remi Berube, DD, explains the different types of dentures and why some options provide better stability and comfort than others.
There are several types of dentures. The simplest form is a traditional denture, which is supported only by your gums. After your teeth are removed, the denture relies on your tissue, saliva, and suction to stay in place. For some people, that works well, but for many, it doesn’t provide enough stability.
That’s where snap-on dentures come in. With this option, we place implants in the jaw, and the denture attaches directly to those implants. The denture snaps on and off, so you can remove it for cleaning, and we can easily take it off for repairs or polishing.
Snap-on dentures are a much more stable and reliable way to restore your bite and your smile.

Atrophy refers to the gradual loss of bone over time. In the jaw, that change directly influences how we plan treatment, including when we recommend a dental bone graft. As the bone structure shifts, the level of support available to teeth or implants can change. You may start to notice these changes as they develop. Gums can recede, making [...]
At Big Sky Dentures & Implants, we pay close attention to what happens around your implant, not just the implant itself. Teeth grinding introduces a level of force that can work against the foundation we place. Natural teeth have a slight cushion from surrounding ligaments. A dental implant connects directly to the jawbone. Every clench or grind exerts pressure [...]
