Implant Retained Dentures

Implant retained dentures are permanent dentures that replace missing teeth including the root, they look and feel natural and with regular check-ups they should last for many years.

With the advancement in dental implants, removable, uncomfortable and painful dentures are no longer necessary.  Implants are able to be used for the replacement of not just a single tooth, but three, four or an entire upper and lower arch, restoring your mouth to its natural appearance.  A dental implant is a special titanium post, which is precisely placed into your bone and gum.  Once this has bonded to the bone, root replacements, which have a tooth or teeth attached are bonded onto the titanium post.  This procedure is particularly helpful for people who cannot wear full dentures.

Implant retained dentures are becoming a popular option for people wanting a more secure alternative than their current dentures which are often subject to slipping as they provide improved confidence during eating and social interaction.
