Eat Better
The average denture patient with an excellent fitting denture eats at
15-20% efficiency when compared to a person with natural teeth. As the
jawbone shrinks, your chewing efficiency is reduced even more, making
it difficult to eat certain foods. Dental implants, on the other hand,
can restore chewing efficiency comparable to that of natural teeth. This
allows you to eat your favorite foods with confidence and without pain. You can enjoy what everyone is eating and you don't have to think twice
about it. A full upper denture covers the palate of the mouth and reduces
the ability to taste foods. With dental implants, you can have the palate
removed from your upper denture so you can taste and enjoy your food.
