When a denture is reaching the end of its usefulness, the next one is a natural moment to ask what else is possible. Care for Park View residents takes place at our McPhillips Street clinic in Winnipeg.
Let's find a time
Worn teeth, repeated repairs or a fit that keeps getting worse can all raise the prospect of a new denture. Replacing it with the same type is one reasonable path. Pausing to ask about implant attachments is another, especially if movement has been a long-running complaint.
The two paths differ considerably in what they involve. A conventional denture relies on your tissues, while a snap-in version adds implants, a surgical step, healing time and upkeep of its attachments. Weighing them side by side, with your own findings in hand, may be easier now than after a new denture has already been made.

A replacement decision is a practical moment for reviewing how you want your denture to behave.
Each approach has its place, and movement is only one part of comparing them.
Its condition is reviewed in the assessment, though a worn one may not be suitable to adapt.
Neither choice is automatically correct. Lining them up shows you the sort of commitment each one asks for, and gives you better questions to bring to your assessment.
Replacing like for like continues with a denture held by tissue, without any implant surgery.
Adding attachments means more stages and more upkeep, in exchange for added retention.
Which route suits you is a decision for you and the dentist, based on an assessment of your bone, gums, bite, health and current denture.
Choosing attachments changes when you would receive your new denture, because implants come first. Timing and implant numbers vary between plans, as does what your old denture is used for.
Request your visitYour bone, gums, bite, medical background and worn denture are evaluated, so that both routes can be discussed in concrete terms.
Imaging and restorative aims determine where implants ought to be placed and how the attachments will fit into your next denture.
After placement, implants need the integration period given in your plan. Then come the records for tooth position and bite.
Retention is set, tissue pressure gets checked, and your removal technique is taught as the new appliance is joined to its attachments.
What wore out first, what broke and what annoyed you are all helpful clues. They can inform the choice of what to do next, whichever route you take.
It is fair to ask what you would wear during implant healing, particularly if your present denture is in poor condition.
A small white chair set between two side tables at the window.
Some people decide that a well-made conventional denture is right for them. Asking about snap-in treatment does not mean you have to choose it, and you can compare at your own pace.
You can ask the dentist to explain how each option relates to your particular complaints.
Healing stands between you and the finished denture, so find out what your plan means for you.
A replacement is a significant decision, and taking it home to consider is reasonable.
After the decision
Neither path ends the need for dental visits. With a snap-in denture, your examinations will also cover the implants and attachments, in addition to your gums, bite and appliance.
Moving to attachments adds implants and housings to the list of things to keep clean.
Replacing a worn retention element is a normal part of ownership, not a sign of failure.
Contact our team if you notice food trapping, added movement or a weaker connection.
If your present denture breaks while you are deciding, call the clinic and explain.

It can be a practical moment to ask, since a new denture is already under discussion. Whether implants are appropriate still depends on what your assessment shows.
Sometimes a denture can be adapted if its fit, bite, strength and tooth position are suitable. One that is badly worn may not meet those standards, and a new one might be needed.
It depends on your plan and how the new denture is made. Raise this with the dentist before ordering, because future conversion also depends on the denture’s suitability.
Ask the dentist about this during planning. The answer depends on your particular treatment, your present denture and how your implants have been placed.
