Implant supported Dentures

Service Description

Implant-Supported Dentures: A Secure Alternative to Traditional Dentures Implant-supported dentures are similar to regular dentures but are anchored to dental implants for enhanced stability. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gum line and rely on adhesives and bony ridge support, implant-supported dentures snap into place on top of implants, providing a firmer hold. Why Choose Implant-Supported Dentures? Many denture wearers experience dissatisfaction due to discomfort (rubbing against the gums, causing ulcers), poor fit (looseness, especially in the lower denture), and limited chewing power compared to natural teeth. Patients with lower dentures are excellent candidates for implant-supported overdentures. Benefits: Implant-supported removable dentures offer significant support and retention, making eating, speaking, and smiling much more comfortable. We recommend using at least two implants to secure your lower denture, preventing it from moving around and causing sore spots while chewing. How Do They Work? Before having implant-supported dentures installed, dental implants must be placed. Once the implants are secure, we offer two types of implant-supported fixed dentures: Bar-Retained Dentures: 1. These are held in place by clips that snap into a thin metal bar resting on top of the implants. 2. Screw-Retained Dentures: These are fitted into metal attachments that sit within another attachment on the implant.
