Implant-Supported Dentures for Wrightsville Beach Patients

Wrightsville Beach patients are some of our closest neighbours. The office is a short run inland over the drawbridge, which makes it practical to schedule the multi-visit appointments that implant and full-mouth work require without giving up a whole day.

Beach living is also hard on teeth in ways worth naming. Sun, salt, an active outdoor life, and a boating or paddling habit all raise the odds of chipped and worn teeth and the occasional knocked-out one. A fair share of our Harbor Island and Shell Island cases start as a fracture that needs a crown and turn into a conversation about the wear pattern behind it.

We regularly see patients from Harbor Island, Shell Island, Parmele Isle, and the south end, and from across the area around Johnnie Mercers Fishing Pier, Wrightsville Beach Park.

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures are dentures that attach to a few dental implants for added stability and comfort. Instead of resting loosely on the gums, they "snap" onto implants to help keep them secure.

They are removable for cleaning, but stay firmly in place while you wear them — making them much more stable than traditional dentures.
