If you wear dentures but want a more permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, you may be an ideal candidate for TeethXpress®. This procedure secures a full set of dentures directly to the jawbone. The result is comparable to that of dental implants, but it requires fewer steps to get there.

Understanding the TeethXpress Procedure 

During the TeethXpress procedure, your dentist will insert between four and six titanium implants into the jawbone. This is a minor surgery that requires local anesthesia. Once the implants are secure, your dentist will use prosthetic screws to attach a full set of upper or lower dentures. Unlike the procedure for inserting individual dental implants, this step is done on the same day you undergo surgery. Patients use either their current dentures or arrange for a new set before, so they can leave the office with a fully restored smile.

Why TeethXpress?

TeethXpress implants solve some of the most frustrating problems that dentures pose. For example, because they are permanently affixed to the jawbone, they will not slip or fall out when talking or eating. They also prevent gum irritation and reduce the risk of infection because you never have to take them out or handle them in potentially unsanitary conditions. Additionally, because the jawbone accepts the implant through a process called osseointegration, TeethXpress prevents the natural deterioration of bone that occurs after a tooth falls out.
