What Are Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures are a modern alternative to traditional dentures, offering greater stability, comfort, and functionality. Unlike conventional dentures that rest on the gums, these dentures are anchored to dental implants, providing a more secure and natural feel.
