After brushing, leave your denture in a glass of tap water to soak overnight.

These devices offer a strong foundation for fixed (permanent) or removable replacement teeth. The implants have an artificial tooth root that the surgeon puts into your jaw to hold a tooth or bridge in place. They may be a good option if you lost a tooth or teeth due to periodontal disease, or an injury. But they're not for everyone. You need to have healthy gums and enough bone to hold the implant in place. Talk to one of our experts to see if they're right for you.

If you are looking for a more permanent solution for replacing missing teeth, you can also consider doing a bridge or implant.
