Will Implant Dentures Affect My Ability to Eat or Speak?

In this video, Dr. Robert Harvey explains how implant-supported teeth enhance the ability to eat without affecting speech.

Your new implant-supported teeth are designed to enhance your eating experience without affecting your ability to speak. The primary purpose of these implants is to restore function, allowing you to eat and chew just as you did when you had your natural teeth. So, while your implants will positively impact how you eat by improving your chewing ability, they should not alter your speech.

The position of the implant-supported teeth is carefully planned to ensure that they fit naturally within your mouth, which helps to maintain normal speech patterns. As such, there should be no negative impact on your ability to articulate words.

If you are considering mini dental implants, it’s important to know that they are particularly beneficial for improving eating function, thanks to their stability and support. However, they are designed to not interfere with your speech. This makes them an excellent choice for anyone looking to enhance their dental functionality without compromising other aspects of oral health.
