Implant Supported Dentures
Tired of loose fitting dentures that move around when you talk and eat?
An implant-supported denture is a type of denture that is securely anchored to dental implants placed in the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums and may slip or shift, implant-supported dentures “snap” or lock into implants, giving you a stable, natural-feeling smile. They restore chewing power, improve speech, and prevent the bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth.
The Process of Getting an Implant-Supported Denture:
- Consultation & Planning – We will take X-rays, 3D scans, and impressions of your mouth to evaluate your bone health and design a personalized treatment plan.
- Implant Placement – Small titanium posts (dental implants) are surgically placed into the jawbone. These serve as artificial tooth roots.
- Healing & Integration – Over the next few months, the implants fuse with your natural bone in a process called osseointegration, creating a strong and stable foundation.
- Attachment of the Denture – Once the implants are fully healed, a custom-made denture is designed to fit onto the implants. The denture can snap on and off for easy cleaning.
- Enjoy Your New Smile – You’ll leave with a secure, comfortable denture that looks natural, functions like real teeth, and allows you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
How much do Implant Dentures cost?
There are many variables and factors that go into a full treatment plan (do remaining teeth need to be extracted? How many? How many implants will be placed?) A good ballpark estimate to replace an entire arch with an implant denture is between $5500-$8000.
