IMPLANTOLOGY
WHY IMPLANT OVERDENTURE?
An implant overdenture is a removable denture that snaps securely onto a small number of dental implants. It grips far better than a regular denture, so you can eat, speak and smile with more confidence.
THE PROCESS
Implant overdenture treatment is carefully planned and carried out by our experienced team, step by step.
We check your jawbone and plan how many implants you need, usually two to four.
Under local anaesthesia, the implants are placed in the jaw.
The implants bond with the bone over the next few months while you wear a comfortable temporary denture.
Attachments are added and your denture snaps securely onto the implants.
THE BENEFITS
Stays in place while you talk, laugh and eat.
Enjoy a wider range of foods with a steadier bite.
Remove it for cleaning, just like a regular denture.
Implants help keep the bone beneath them strong.

Implant placement is done under local anaesthesia, so you should not feel pain. Some swelling and tenderness afterwards is normal and can be managed with the medication we advise.
Usually between two and four implants per denture, depending on your jaw and bite. Your dentist will confirm this after your scan.
Yes. It is removable, so you can take it out to clean it and as your dentist advises overnight.
In some cases an existing denture can be adjusted to fit onto the implants. Otherwise, a new one is made for the best fit.
Implant placement takes a short visit, followed by a few months of healing before your final overdenture is fitted.
Brush the denture and clean around the attachments every day, and visit us for regular check-ups. Small attachment parts may need replacing over time.
