The stars in the night sky are billions of years old. They’ve been around long before humans have been. And they’ll live long after we’re gone, perhaps even dying in a spectacular supernova. While nothing on Earth lasts quite that long, it does make you wonder about the lifespan of something much closer to home, like your teeth. More often than not, our natural teeth flame out too soon. In fact, 120 million Americans are missing at least one tooth, while 36 million have lost all their teeth. If you’re one of the millions of people who rely on traditional dentures, you likely wish they did more to revitalize your appearance. Fortunately, Fountain of Youth Dentures offer an upgrade. They’re a refreshing alternative that supports your smile and your facial features!
Why Traditional Dentures Fall Short
For decades, conventional dentures have been the go-to for replacing missing teeth. But they fail to stop the clock on aging. Why exactly do they fall short?
Dentures don’t prevent your bone structure from changing after tooth loss. You might not realize it, but the roots of your teeth are essential for keeping your upper and lower jawbones strong.
As your body cycles through natural growth periods, it removes old bone tissue through a process called resorption. Chewing and biting signals for your body to keep strengthening the jawbone, adding back bone material through ossification. When you lose teeth, your jawbones lose out on critical stimulation from biting down and chewing.
As a result, your bone tissue undergoes resorption at a higher rate than it is replaced. This sets off a chain reaction that ages your features in several ways. First, your bone literally shrinks, and your upper and lower jawbones weaken. And when you lose jaw volume and strength, you’re more likely to lose teeth you might still have.
Once your bones start shrinking, your face can flatten, your cheeks can sag, and jowls may form, an effect commonly known as “denture face.” If you wear a traditional denture, you’ll also notice that they fit worse over time. They might slip or fall unexpectedly, which can cause embarrassment.
With Fountain of Youth Dentures, you can hit rewind on many unwanted cosmetic impacts of tooth loss. These dentures are specially made to restore a more youthful appearance. And when we attach them to dental implants, the implants function like tooth roots, giving your jaw the stimulation it needs to slow resorption and stay healthy.
With this thoughtful, comprehensive cosmetic denture, you’ll have a more beautiful, youthful appearance and a healthy, strong bite!
Hit Refresh With Fountain of Youth Dentures
The Denture Fountain of Youth is different from regular denture systems because it considers the relationship between the jaw, muscles, teeth, and joints, working with your anatomy instead of against it.
Because they’re designed with your unique facial structure in mind, these dentures fit better and feel more stable when you chew or talk. While standard dentures can slip and lead to bone loss over time, Fountain of Youth dentures help keep your face’s natural shape. By better supporting your cheeks and lips, they can reduce wrinkles and give you a more youthful look, often called a “dental facelift.”
These dentures primarily rely on premium materials and even pressure distribution to mimic natural teeth, slowing jawbone resorption. And while they’re an upgrade from traditional dentures, we often recommend pairing them with dental implants for extra stability. Dental implant-supported dentures improve bite forces while better preserving your bone structure.
The Process
At the Center for Cosmetic Dentistry, we focus on more than just replacing your teeth. We consider every aspect of your mouth. To achieve a timeless transformation, we design the Fountain of Youth Denture to look as natural as possible.
When we take impressions to develop your denture, we also stimulate your facial muscles to capture your face’s full range of motion. We use this information to develop a denture that fits more securely and facilitates smoother speaking and eating. Denture Fountain of Youth also fills out the natural contours of your face better than a conventional denture.
When connected to mini dental implants, this denture also prevents further changes to your facial structure. These implants are anchored to the jawbone, helping recreate the effect of your natural tooth roots. Essentially, the integration of the implant with the bone restores your bite strength and helps stop bone loss, boosting your oral function and preserving your facial appearance.
Once we place the implants and attach your Denture Fountain of Youth, you’ll be able to eat and chew like normal. Your face will look naturally more youthful while you’re talking, eating, and smiling!
