Permanent Dentures in Kingstowne
For Kingstowne residents seeking permanent dentures, our board-certified periodontists provide exceptional results at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in Alexandria. Permanent dentures are fixed, implant-supported prostheses that are screwed or cemented onto dental implants, providing a non-removable tooth replacement that looks and functions like natural teeth.
We welcome patients from Kingstowne and surrounding areas to our Alexandria office, conveniently located about 10 minutes away. Unlike removable dentures, permanent dentures never come out, never slip, and never need adhesive. They restore full chewing ability and provide a natural appearance that boosts confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions
Permanent Dentures FAQ for Kingstowne Patients
What are permanent dentures and how are they attached?
Permanent dentures — also called fixed implant dentures — are prosthetic teeth permanently secured to dental implants with screws. Unlike removable dentures, they can only be removed by your dentist for professional cleaning. They provide the closest experience to natural teeth in terms of stability, function, and aesthetics.
How many implants do permanent dentures require?
A permanent denture typically requires four to six implants per arch. The upper jaw usually requires more implants than the lower due to softer bone density. Your periodontist determines the optimal number based on your bone quality, arch shape, and the material chosen for the prosthesis.
What materials are used for permanent dentures?
The most common materials are monolithic zirconia (extremely durable and natural-looking), porcelain fused to a titanium bar, and high-grade acrylic with titanium reinforcement. Zirconia is the premium choice for its strength, stain resistance, and natural translucency, while acrylic options offer a more affordable alternative.
How do I clean permanent dentures?
Clean them like natural teeth — brush twice daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste, and use a water flosser to clean around and under the prosthesis where food can accumulate. Professional maintenance every three to four months includes removal of the prosthesis for thorough cleaning of the implant abutments.
