Implant Retained Dentures
Why Replace Missing Teeth
More Than a Cosmetic Concern
Missing teeth affect far more than your appearance. They change your bite, make speaking and chewing harder, put extra strain on your remaining teeth, and can even cause jaw pain and headaches. And many people who tolerate an upper denture struggle with a loose lower one. Implant-retained dentures solve that instability at the source.
Our Core Digital Tools
Solutions for the Lower Jaw
Ball-Attachment Denture
Two implants; the denture snaps onto them.
More stable than no implants, but some movement remains and food can still get trapped underneath. Removable.
Bar-Attachment Overdenture
Four to six implants connected by a custom support bar; the denture clips firmly onto it.
Much more stable with very little movement. Still removable for easy cleaning.
Screw-Retained Fixed Denture
Five or more implants hold a permanent denture in place; it doesn't touch the gums.
The most secure—stays in except at maintenance visits. Cleaning underneath takes more dexterity.
Solutions for the Upper Jaw
Replacing Upper Teeth
The same range of options is available for your upper jaw. Because upper-jaw bone is softer, more implants are sometimes needed for support. The upside: with enough implants, it’s often possible to eliminate the bulky plate covering the roof of your mouth—so you can fully taste and feel the temperature of your food, and your denture feels far more natural. It stays removable for easy cleaning.
