Smile Makeover / Teeth in a day

Have you ever felt like getting a whole new set of teeth the quick and painless way?
You absolutely can. Give your smile a makeover with Dr. Ribeiro's implants!
Conventional dentures have existed for many centuries. However, with them came side effects - inability to chew correctly, movement while speaking, the occasional denture slip in the glass of water, and overall a very uncomfortable solution for patients. Over the years, with dental advancements, implant-supported dentures have quickly become the best option for patients looking to replace all their teeth.
Implant-supported dentures restore chewability up to 85% in comparison to the 25% chewability of conventional dentures. In addition, all-on 4 dentures offer the closest confidence feeling your natural teeth once offered, optimizing your smile, health and functionality.
There are two different types of implant-supported dentures, removable, a snap-on / snap-off mechanism using implant locators. Patients can remove or rather snap on/off their dentures daily for cleaning purposes. It restores functionality up to 65%, a more affordable option with less healing time required.
Or fixed, uses a screw-retained mechanism that securely fixes the denture in place to the implants. Implant fixed teeth can only be removed by a dental office for routine cleanings, just as your natural teeth would need maintenance. Implant fixed teeth restores functionality up to 85% requires a higher financial commitment. There is an additional option where a full arch is also supported by implant on a fix matter where they don’t need to be removed for maintenance cleaning every few month. They will work as fix bridges. They are also called the “Bentley” option
