When to Get Dental Implants or Dentures?
Yes, we take dental insurance for dentures. Not only that – we strive to make coverage for dentures as simple as possible by working with you and your insurance company. We have extensive experience working closely with insurance companies and understand the nuances of this process.
At Lewis Family & Implant Dentistry, we believe that everyone should have access to the dental care they need, and dentures are an important part of that. If you’re unsure what’s covered and what isn’t, give us a call and we’ll answer your questions and work through it with you.
The fundamental difference is how they connect to your mouth, which changes everything about how they feel and function. For more information, check out our implant-supported denture page – or schedule a denture consultation in our office.
These rest directly on your gums, held in place by natural suction and sometimes messy adhesives. Because they aren’t anchored, they can shift when you eat or talk. This can limit your diet (goodbye, steak and corn on the cob!) and make you feel less confident.
These are anchored to your jawbone itself. Dental implants are placed in your jaw and the denture securely snaps or locks onto them. This creates a rock-solid foundation. You have very few, if any, limitations to what you can eat, can speak clearly, and laugh without a second thought. They feel and function much more like natural teeth.
We know that getting dentures is a big decision, and it’s our goal to ensure you feel supported and informed every step of the way. From answering your insurance questions to ensuring a comfortable, custom fit, our focus is entirely on giving you the smile you want.
It starts with a simple consultation. Call our Vancouver office today to schedule yours.
