Enjoy dentures that are held firmly in place through an implant procedure that offers you stability and confidence in your everyday dental life.

While dentures are a trusted and relied upon replacement for missing teeth, some patients experience rubbing against the gums or movement when eating and chewing. This can feel uncomfortable and may impact your confidence when around others or eating out.

Implant retained dentures offer a more stable and fixed foundation for the removable appliance. Treatment entails a number of implants (titanium screws) being placed into the jaw bone at strategic points to act as an anchor (or as dental roots) for the denture appliance.

The denture then clips on and off these implants, instead of sitting against the gums as with traditional adhesive dentures.

Benefits of implant retained dentures

This procedure is ideal for long term denture wearers who have lost all of their upper or lower teeth. Benefits include:

• Implants provide a secure hold for the denture
• Less chance of denture moving or slipping out of place
• Less rubbing on the gums
• Renewed confidence when eating and chewing
• More comfortable than traditional dentures
