Implant-Supported Dentures
A denture secured by dental implants for superior retention, comfort, and chewing ability compared to traditional dentures.
A denture stabilized by dental implants placed in the jaw, which prevents slipping and shifting and provides significantly stronger biting force than conventional removable dentures.
Implants are surgically placed and integrated into the jawbone, then a custom denture with built-in attachment points is connected to the implants, locking it firmly in place.
Dramatically improves comfort, stability, and chewing ability compared to traditional dentures, while also stimulating the jawbone to prevent further bone loss.
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about implant-supported dentures.
Current denture wearers frustrated by slipping or discomfort, or patients facing full tooth loss who want superior stability.
Implants are placed and the denture is connected once healing is complete. The improvement in stability and bite strength over a conventional denture is immediately apparent.
Implant placement takes place first, followed by a healing period of several months. The entire process typically spans six months to a year.
Implant-supported dentures require daily cleaning of both the denture and the implant attachments to prevent infection.
Recovery after implant placement is similar to a minor tooth extraction — soreness and swelling for a few days, managed with medication.
