Implant-retained dentures are used to replace multiple missing teeth, using implants to improve stability and retention.

Implant retained dentures

They are designed to reduce movement and improve confidence during eating and speaking.

Assessment considers bone levels, gum health, bite forces, and overall oral function. Implant-retained dentures are often chosen when conventional dentures feel unstable or uncomfortable.

Treatment is planned and delivered using established implant systems and staged care. The focus is on comfort during treatment and reliable function over the long term.

How do they differ from conventional dentures?

They are secured using implants, reducing movement.

Frequently asked questions

1 How many implants are required?

This depends on your mouth and the type of denture you need. Most lower dentures are supported by two to four implants, while upper dentures usually need four to six for better stability. Your dentist will assess your bone and overall oral health before making a recommendation. If you’re unsure, we can assess this during your visit and guide you through the most appropriate options.

2 Are they removable?

Yes, many implant-retained dentures are designed to be removable for easy cleaning, while still feeling very secure when in place. They “snap” onto the implants, so there’s no slipping or movement like traditional dentures. Some patients may also choose fixed options depending on their preferences and lifestyle. We’ll talk you through what suits you better so you feel confident in your choice.

3 How long does treatment take?

Treatment usually takes around three to six months, depending on your individual case. This allows time for the implants to properly integrate with the bone, which is key for long-term stability. Some patients may need additional steps like extractions or bone grafting, which can extend the timeline slightly. We’ll give you a clear, personalised plan so you know exactly what to expect at every stage.

4 Are there alternatives?

Yes, there are alternatives such as traditional dentures or dental bridges, depending on your needs. These can restore appearance and function, but may not feel as secure or comfortable as implant-retained options. Your dentist will help you compare each choice based on your oral health, lifestyle, and goals. If you’re unsure, we can assess this during your visit and guide you through the most appropriate options.
