Fixed-Hybrid Dentures in Owings Mills, MD
Restore Your Smile with Fixed-Hybrid Dentures
If missing teeth or ill-fitting dentures are making life difficult, fixed-hybrid dentures can completely change your day-to-day comfort and confidence. Designed to look and feel like natural teeth, these dentures give you:
- Better ability to chew and enjoy your favorite foods
- Improved speech
- Enhanced oral health
- Protection for your gums
At Crossroads Dental Arts, we specialize in All-On-4 fixed-hybrid dentures, a solution that’s permanent, comfortable, and reliable.
What Is All-On-4?
All-On-4, also called fixed-hybrid dentures, replaces all natural teeth using just four or more titanium implants to anchor a full set of dentures. This approach provides a strong, long-term solution without the need for dozens of individual implants.
Compared to traditional full-mouth implant treatments, fixed-hybrid dentures often require less time in the chair and shorter healing periods. In many cases, patients leave the office with a full set of teeth the very same day. Healing varies per person, but overall it’s significantly faster than multiple single implants.
The Process
The journey to your new smile begins with a consultation. Our experienced team will discuss your goals, evaluate your mouth, and design a plan tailored to your needs. Next, four or more dental implants are carefully placed to provide the strongest support possible.
Dr. Joanne Block Rief of Crossroads Dental Arts is highly trained in implant and denture restoration. Unlike standard dentures, fixed-hybrid dentures can be placed even when some bone loss has occurred, making them ideal for patients who have struggled with ill-fitting dentures.
After the implants are in place, your custom-crafted dentures are secured to them permanently. This means you can eat, speak, and sleep with your dentures in — no adhesives, no soaking, no slipping. Your smile functions just like natural teeth.
Advantages of Fixed-Hybrid Dentures
- Faster healing compared to multiple single implants
- Comfortable, secure fit — no more worrying about dentures shifting
- Improved speech, digestion, and sleep compared to removable dentures
- Restores a healthy, beautiful smile
How Fixed-Hybrid Dentures Can Improve Your Life
If you hide your smile because of missing teeth or find eating painful, fixed-hybrid dentures can help. Beyond improving your appearance, they allow you to speak, chew, and smile with less discomfort. They also help prevent remaining teeth from shifting into improper positions, which can reduce future dental problems.
When you schedule a consultation with Dr. Joanne Block Rief and the team at Crossroads Dental Arts, you’ll receive a thorough evaluation to determine the best tooth replacement options for your unique needs.
