Snoring is capable of being one of the most annoying sounds known to man. It happens at the worst time, too – while you’re sleeping. It may be so thunderous that it wakes you up from a deep sleep. And your partner? It’s even worse for them. If you suffer from loud snoring, there’s nothing to be ashamed of. It’s something that’s out of your control…or is it?

If you wear dentures you probably already know the litany of issues associated with them. They move in the mouth, make it difficult to chew, cause impeded speech, and just don’t always look great. There are a few other concerns associated with dentures that you may not be as familiar with. The pressure traditional dentures place on gum tissue causes it to recede and change shape. This means over time you will need to have your dentures refitted if not completely replaced. This pressure and the lack of stimulation from tooth roots also leads to loss of bone density changing the shape of your face, and again requiring reshaping and replacing of dentures. Dental implants can solve the problems associated with traditional dentures and offer a semi-permanent tooth replacement option that looks and feels great. If you’re interested in implant supported dentures, call Foundation Dental Solutions in Arlington, TX to find out more about how Dr. Douglas Baldwin and his dental care team can help you restore your smile and confidence.
