In this video, Remi Berube, DD, explains how rebuilding a smile is planned step by step and how different denture and implant options can be matched to your long-term goals.
When you’re ready to rebuild your smile, especially if your natural teeth have been failing for years, we start by planning the best option based on your goals. If you want a fixed solution that stays in your mouth, we focus on implants. If you prefer traditional dentures, we plan for that instead. Many patients choose a hybrid approach: starting with dentures and later transitioning to something fixed.
Here’s what that typically looks like: On the day your teeth are removed, we place an immediate denture, so you leave the office with teeth in place. After healing, we explore long-term solutions such as snap-on dentures or a fully fixed roundhouse bridge. We provide the entire range of these treatments in our office.
If you’d like to go over your options in detail, speak with the front desk, and we’ll set up a consultation.

If you were trying to understand your denture options, wouldn’t you want to hear from people who have spent years studying how they should fit, feel, function, and hold up over time? At Big Sky Dentures & Implants in Missoula, MT, that kind of knowledge comes from daily hands-on work, not vague promises. Dr. Jack Booth brings a strong [...]
We offer payment plans for dental implants because we see how much they can improve daily life for patients dealing with tooth loss. A dental implant is a small titanium post that we place into the jawbone, right where the tooth root once sat. Each time you bite or chew, your natural tooth root transfers pressure into the surrounding [...]
A dental emergency can leave you feeling unprepared, especially when something you rely on daily stops working properly. A shifting, rubbing, or ill-fitting denture can disrupt your routine and leave you wondering how long you’ll go without a solution. We offer same-day denture relines and repairs so your smile feels stable and comfortable every day. We bring the same care [...]
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 [...]
A roundhouse bridge falls within the implant denture category, yet it rarely resembles what most people expect a denture to look like. That contrast often creates confusion. If it replaces a full arch of teeth and relies on implants for support, why does it appear so different? The difference reflects a rethinking of what a denture should be. Full-arch [...]
