Implant-Supported Dentures
If your dentures rock, rub or limit what you eat, implants can lock them in place. A small number of implants transforms a loose denture into a stable, confident bite.
Your denture, anchored.
An implant-supported denture (overdenture) clips onto 2–4 implants placed in your jaw, instead of resting loosely on your gums. The result is a denture that stays exactly where it should — through meals, conversation and laughter.
It's a middle path between conventional dentures and a fixed All-on-4 bridge: significantly more stability and chewing power than a standard denture, at a lower investment than a full fixed arch. Depending on the design, your overdenture either snaps in and out for easy cleaning, or is fixed in place by your dentist.
If you already wear a denture you're mostly happy with, it can often be converted to clip onto implants — ask at your consultation.
What changes with implant support
- No more movement. The denture locks onto implants — no slipping mid-sentence, no lifting when you bite.
- Eat what you like. Dramatically improved chewing force compared to a suction-fit denture.
- No adhesives. Throw out the glue — retention comes from the implants, not paste.
- Slimmer, more comfortable design. Upper overdentures can often be made without covering the palate, improving taste and comfort.
- Protects your jawbone. Implants stimulate bone and slow the shrinkage that makes ordinary dentures loosen over time.
From loose to locked-in.
Free consultation & 3D scan
We assess your current denture, gums and bone with CBCT imaging and design the right overdenture solution for you.
Implant placement
2–4 implants are placed in a single visit — with sedation available. Your existing denture is adjusted so you can keep wearing it while you heal.
Healing & integration
The implants fuse with your bone over the following weeks, building the strength to hold your denture firmly.
Attachments fitted
Precision connectors are fitted to the implants and your new (or converted) denture — and it clicks securely into place.
Review & fine-tuning
Bite and retention are refined so everything feels natural, followed by simple ongoing maintenance.
Clear pricing, flexible ways to pay.
Implant-supported dentures are quoted after your scan, based on the number of implants and whether your existing denture can be converted. It's typically a significantly smaller investment than a fixed full-arch bridge — and every payment pathway applies: interest-free plans, HICAPS claiming and early release of super* for eligible patients.
