Watch this video to learn more about what options we offer to those with loose or ill-fitting dentures.
Floating denture is basically as if it’s a little low on the bottom. And it basically means maybe you had the denture made years ago. And as we get older, like we lose our hair. Ah, we lose bone. Pure and simple. Like we lose muscle. We lose bone. And what will happen is that denture that we had made ten or 15 or 25 years ago is now ill fitting.
And you may be using globs of Fixodent to hold it into place. Mini implants are wonderful for this. It’s a solution we use all the time. We can place four mini implants in that bone and and we can make it give you a brand new denture that fits your teeth today. So if the denture fits and you love that you have a denture, if you say I want a little bit more, we can put some mini implants in there. So if you’re having a problem with a denture and you want a little bit more mini implants are for you.
“20+ years later….I went to Dr Zirakian in my 20’s and he replaced multiple childhood silver fillings (a couple deep ones) and gave me a root canal. I unfortunately moved away and see a different dentist now, also needed oral surgery in the meantime and they are all amazed at the perfect work he did, which is still perfect 20+ years later. Great bedside manner, gentle and most importantly – strong and sustainable dentistry.” Sonja S.
“I haven’t been to a dentist in years! And I had to have an emergency visit which is leading me to a surgeon unfortunately. But Dr. Zirakian is awesome! And was able to see me on short notice! Really down to earth and knows what he’s doing! The office is really clean and receptionist Melissa was very helpful and friendly!” Joey B.
”From the office staff to the hygienist to the dentist all are some one I look forward to seeing. Each are friendly, courteous, and informative making the care they all give outstanding. I don’t live in town but they surely make the trip worth while.” Eloise P.
