Secure Your Smile with Implant-Supported Dentures
For patients missing an entire arch of teeth or all their teeth, dentures become a necessity. While traditional dentures can restore the basic functions of eating and speaking, there is a chance these dentures could slip out of place because they are held in place only by dental adhesive and natural suction. When patients choose dental implants to retain their artificial teeth, they can experience unmatched benefits of a secure and comfortable fit and a fully restored beautiful smile.
Implant-supported dentures provide patients with a stable, long-lasting replacement for several missing teeth or a full dental arch. Dr. McIntyre and Dr. Whiting at Smiles For Life can place the implants and restore them with a custom-made denture at their Bridgewater, VA, office without referring patients to specialists at other locations.
What are Implant-Supported Dentures?
At Smiles for Life, we offer different implant-retained dentures to suit the varied needs of our patients. When you come into our practice for your initial consultation, your dentist will thoroughly assess your smile using 3-D computerized tomography (CT) scans. Then, your doctor will determine the number of dental implants and the kind of denture you require according to the condition of your oral health and jawbone density.
For qualifying patients, we offer permanent denture implants that allow patients to receive immediate-load restorations, which means that you can leave our office with a full set of functional artificial teeth retained by four implants on the same day as your implant surgery. However, not all patients qualify for this treatment.
Smiles For Life also offers the option of zirconia implant-supported bridges or All-On-X Bridges for dental implants restoration. These prosthetics provide superior strength and its makers offer a warranty against chipping and breaking.
Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures
Dentures supported by dental implants are made of durable, lifelike materials. Patients can speak and eat with ease as their implant-retained dentures fit snugly against the gum line and do not slip out of place. Additionally, an implant-supported denture can prevent gum tissues from wearing down.
The most important benefit provided by implant-supported dentures is that it prevents the jawbone loss and shrinkage that occurs naturally after tooth loss. Since dental implants act as artificial tooth roots, they stimulate the jaw tissues, ultimately helping patients avoid a sunken look and maintain their facial structure.
Invest in the Long-Term Health of Your Smile
Implant-supported dentures are an investment in your long-term oral health. Smiles For Life partners with many 3rd party financing organizations to help patients finance their elective treatments. We accept all major credit cards, and we offer a five percent discount for cash payments and pre-paid procedures.

Cathy is always amazing. She remembers personal care details about my visit each time which shows me that she is a great listener, she has heard me and follows through with such care.

I had Dr. Whiting for the first time and the practice will be in excellent hands when Dr. McIntire retires in Sept. He was profesional yet had an engaging demeanor when interacting with me. What makes this practice exceptional is the support staff- the welcoming friendliness of the front desk and the business office personnel. In particular, I would like to give high praises to the dental technician, Faith. She is warm, engaging and puts you at ease. She educates you during the whole process and is extremely knowledgeable about the procedures. Without a doubt, this is the best dental practice in the Valley.

Dr. Whiting and staff did an excellent job. They were respectful, professional, and very helpful during the process of getting some dental implants. They expedited my appointments to get my new teeth before Father’s Day. Very happy with the results!

Dr. Mac performed a small miracle for me yesterday during my appointment. I was having an issue with my temporary bridge and he squeezed me in with his other patients to fix it. He went to great lengths to help me and I am very grateful. Thank you SFL!!

I had every intention of shopping around before committing to the extensive dental work I needed. However, after visiting the practice and seeing how dedicated they were to making life changing improvement for their patients, I looked no further. It is a process, starting with evaluations, recommendations, x-rays and scheduling. Beginning with my first appointment I marveled at the kindness, care and professionalism I received. I was taken care of skillfully and gently as we began my transformation. Today, June 6, 2024, I left their office with a beautiful smile without discoloration, wear, and misaligned teeth, and I now have a corrected bite and completely restored teeth that I am proud to show. Dr. Geo is very caring and meticulous, striving to complete his work with skill and perfection. I’m so glad that I came to Smiles For Life.

Smiles for Life has taken care of my dentistry needs for the last 6 years or so. Other offices in the past have had difficult times fitting me in when I needed an appointment. That hasn’t been the case here. Today, I needed to reschedule my appointment for next Monday, and they had an opening today with Cathy Batton instead of my regular hygienist. Cathy does a great job with years of experience and has a way about her to make you feel comfortable.

Alex, . Morgan, and Dr Geo are very personable and professional. I felt very relaxed the entire visit.I especially appreciated Dr. Geo's careful mouth and teeth exam. They explained everything step by step and allowed time for questions.
Mclatt
On my first visit I meet Becky, we sat down and talked about everything they do there and she allowed me to tell her about my issues with my teeth and she felt that they could help me with my problem. This is the first time I have ever been able to explain, in detail, about my past and present experiences with my dental problems. She made me feel very comfortable in taking about my care and what I would like to have done with my denture issue's. I have set up my next appointment to have x-rays done and feel very good about that! I'm looking forward to my visit and what they have to say about fixing my problem .
