Philadelphia Affordable Dental Implants

Affordable dental implants can help your dentures feel more like your own teeth. They decrease—or completely eliminate—some of the issues common with removable complete dentures.

What Are Affordable Dental Implants?

Although four to six dental implants provide maximum stability for dentures, affordable dental implants are a way to secure them without exceeding your budget. By using only two dental implants to anchor the denture, you can save about half the cost.

Snap-on dentures are affordable dental implants

This treatment uses two dental implants that are placed in the anterior of your jawbone. The denture base is made to accommodate the implants so it snaps onto the implants. A metal bar can be placed over the implants to increase stability.

What Are the Benefits?

Stability – Although your dentures won’t have the same stability as being anchored with four to six implants, they won’t slip around in your mouth, lift up, or fall out.

Comfort – Implants anchor your dentures, so they won’t rest on your gums and cause irritation or sores.

Function – It’s easier to speak and eat with snap-on dentures than with removable complete dentures. Your chewing efficiency and speech won’t be impaired by unstable dentures.

Bone stimulation – Dental implants stimulate the jawbone and prevent shrinkage. Intact jawbone supports your facial muscles and prevents sagging.

What’s the Process?

  • Your medical and dental history will be reviewed to ensure you’re a candidate for dental implants. Most people are candidates.
  • You will receive an examination and digital x-rays to ensure your bone and gums are healthy and that you have enough jawbone to support dental implants. If you don’t have enough bone, grafting might be required.
  • Implant surgery is an in-office procedure.
  • Over the next three to four months, osseointegration occurs—your jawbone and the implants will fuse together to provide a solid anchor for your dentures.
  • You’ll wear temporary dentures during the healing process and have periodic checkup appointments to monitor the progress.
  • Dr. Weiss will provide permanent dentures that are made with high-quality materials.
  • After the implants and your jawbone heal, your dentures will be snapped onto them.
  • You will let Dr. Weiss know how your dentures feel as you speak, bite down, and chew. He’ll make any needed adjustments.
  • Your smile will look natural and feel more like your own teeth than removable dentures.

Taking Care of Affordable Dental Implants

  • Each night you will remove your dentures to clean the denture teeth and base.
  • Use a soft-bristle toothbrush and non-abrasive paste or denture cleaner.
  • Gently clean your gums.
  • Maintain your appointments for dental checkups.

If you need an affordable way to stabilize your dentures, schedule an appointment for an exam or a complimentary consultation with Dr. Weiss. You can call us or request an appointment online.

Dr. Weiss and his staff do everything possible to put you into your best smile and health.

I am in my 50's and have seen a good number of top notch dentists. Of those, Dr. Weiss is in a league above. Besides being meticulous and thorough, he and his staff are gentle and concerned with every aspect of the patient's comfort. You will not find any dentist that is more skilled.

Dr. Weiss gave me a smile makeover with porcelain veneers. The procedure was absolutely comfortable and my teeth look so natural. I love how they look!! People are always complimenting me on my beautiful smile. Dr. Weiss’s expert eye with color and attention to detail make him the finest cosmetic dentist I know.

Dr. Weiss and his team are outstanding. They are thorough yet gentle, and take great care to ensure you are comfortable. Everyone in the office is highly skilled, professional, and kind. I trust his work and advice completely. Lovely office that puts you at ease the moment you enter.

I'm a long-time patient of Dr. Weiss and was hesitant about doing crowns on my six upper front teeth. No more! I am so happy with my smile transformation! Dr. Weiss performed wonders. I have my confidence—and my smile—back.
Eileen
After having trouble with previous dental work, I researched 8 dentists to fix it and came to Dr. Weiss. He is in a league of his own. The work he did for me is nothing short of perfection. On top of that, he takes the time to explain everything. Furthermore, he is accredited by the AACD and if you do your research, you will realize that this is no small achievement.
