More than 40 million people are estimated to be fully edentulous in the United States alone. Completely edentulous jaws (no teeth) are a much more widespread handicap than most of us realize.

Edentulous patients are increasingly turning to a new method of securing dentures by taking advantage of precision-cut titanium implants. Quite often, the hassles of conventional dentures can be eliminated with the use of implants, and our “Teeth in a Day” system uses a preformed arch of teeth which are attached to the implants beneath them. The false teeth literally snap in place and remain secure, stable, and the greatly improved function and appearance is immediate and dramatic – all within a day!

Decades of successful procedures have demonstrated that most patients are great candidates for dental implants, however patients that smoke or drink heavily, patients with autoimmune diseases, and women who are pregnant should consult with Dr. Posert of Island Dental.
