Implant-Retained Dentures
Wearing traditional dentures can be frustrating, especially on the lower jaw, because they often slip while eating or speaking and can create sore spots. Implant-retained dentures snap securely onto dental implants, giving you stability, comfort, and confidence every day.

What Are Implant-Retained Dentures?
Implant-retained dentures are a type of overdenture that attaches to dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures that simply rest on your gums, these dentures lock into place, making them more reliable and comfortable.
Depending on your situation, you may have several options:
Ball Attachment Denture
Uses two implants in the lower jaw with a denture that snaps on. This option improves stability while still allowing for some movement and requires occasional adjustments.
Bar Attachment Denture
Four to six implants are connected by a support bar, and the denture clips securely onto it. Bar attachment dentures offer greater stability with minimal movement and are still removable for easy cleaning.
Screw-Retained Denture
Typically supported by five or more implants, this denture is fixed in place with screws or clasps. It doesn’t rest on the gums and is only removed during maintenance visits. Many patients choose screw-retained dentures for a permanent, natural feel.
Implant Retained Upper Dentures
In the upper jaw, multiple implants can support a denture that may no longer cover the roof of your mouth. As a result, eating is more enjoyable, and you can fully taste your food and feel its temperature.
