Dentures: A Stepping Stone to More Implant Cases NEW!
Over 85% of the American population is missing one or
more teeth and over 35% are totally edentulous in one
arch or the other.
Most dentists don’t include dentures in their treatment options. However, many patients believe implants are beyond their budget, so they are willing to accept a well-fitting denture. While the upper denture can be made to stay secure, the lower counterpart often proves problematic. The strategic placement of two implants on the lower arch can drastically enhance the overall experience for long-term denture wearers. This simple yet transformative solution can profoundly impact patient satisfaction and quality of life.
Dr. Fraser will reveal how his focus on dentures led to the development of a multimillion-dollar dental practice. He will also share strategies to make implant procedures both affordable and profitable, ensuring mutual benefits for both patients and practitioners.
