Removable Dentures

On Implants

The Support And Fit You Deserve

Removable dentures on implants, also known as implant-supported overdentures, represent a significant advancement in dental prosthetics. Unlike traditional removable dentures, which rely solely on the gums for support, implant-supported dentures anchor securely to dental implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This not only enhances stability and retention but also provides a more natural feel and improved chewing efficiency.

What does it involve?

The process of obtaining removable dentures on implants involves several stages. Initially, a comprehensive dental examination and imaging, such as X-rays, are conducted to assess the patient's oral health and jawbone structure. During the surgical phase, dental implants, typically made of titanium, are strategically placed into the jawbone. These implants serve as secure anchors for the removable dentures. After the surgical site heals, a connector piece known as an abutment is attached to the implants. This abutment acts as a link between the implants and the removable dentures. The dentures, custom-designed to match the patient's natural teeth, are then securely attached to the abutments, creating a stable and comfortable prosthetic.

How does it work?

Removable dentures on implants work by combining the stability of dental implants with the convenience of removable dentures. The implants firmly anchor the dentures, preventing them from slipping or shifting during activities like eating or speaking. This increased stability enhances both comfort and confidence for the wearer. Additionally, the removable nature of the dentures simplifies oral hygiene practices, allowing users to easily clean both the dentures and the implant-supported attachments. This innovative approach to tooth replacement provides a durable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing solution for individuals seeking the benefits of dental implants with the flexibility of removable dentures.
