We are the pros to see if you live in Buffalo NY and want to lock down your existing dentures. There are so many names for using implants to lock in your current dentures, it can be confusing. Basically this process is referring to patients bringing in their own dentures and having those existing dentures fitted so that they lock on to locator implants. If you have a denture that looks the way you want it to look, but are unhappy that you need adhesives to hold it in, dental implants are a truly economical option. In most cases, if your denture was made well, we can place locator implants and retrofit your denture to be attached to the implants immediately. This solution will allow you to snap your denture into place and never worry that it will be falling out again. It will increase your ability to chew food drastically and give you the peace of mind that your dentures will remain stable in your mouth. Depending on the type of implant we use and the attachments that are used, this option can be simple and totally affordable. At Buffalo Dental Implant, implant consultations are always free. You have nothing to lose except an hour of your time, but you have lots of knowledge to gain.
