Can you really get facelift results with a denture? Yes! FOY® Dentures have been described as the fountain of youth for denture wearers. Although FOY® Dentures offer many advantages over traditional dentures, perhaps the main reason why people choose them over traditional dentures is that they make denture wearers look younger.
Unknown to most patients who experience tooth loss are the issues that occur as a result of not having teeth in the form of jawbone deterioration. The bone material that the tooth root is attached to is accustomed to physical stimulation that is produced by normal behaviors of biting and chewing. As long as natural teeth are in place and disease is absent, our upper and lower jaws can be expected to remain healthy and intact. However the loss of our teeth and their former replacement —traditional dentures that are designed to rest on top of the gum tissue — do not provide the natural and even pressure the jawbone is used to, and thus do nothing to combat the effects of jawbone resorption, resulting in patients who look much older than they actually are.
FOY® Dentures are designed to provide even pressure across the gums and jawbone by creating a better fitting denture that rests partially on the muscles. They are placed to build the bite at a position that the muscles will best function; the same position that provides the greatest facial support and works to achieve stability and greater facial aesthetics.
