Implant Supported Denture

Get the Best of Both Worlds

Convenience and Stability

If you’re missing all your teeth, an implant supported denture can be an effective, long-lasting way to replace them. It combines the convenience of dentures with the stability of dental implants. Implant supported dentures are overdentures that are supported by, and attached to, implants. A conventional denture, particularly an upper one, stays in place mostly by the suction created by the palate, while an implant supported overdenture does not need a palate to stay in place. They are usually made for the lower jaw because conventional dentures tend to be less stable as the facial muscles naturally try to dislodge the denture, often managing to do so at the most inconvenient times. Upper dentures tend to be more stable and do not always need the extra support provided by dental implants. However, you can receive implant-supported dentures in both the upper and lower jaws.

Choose the Option that Suits You

At one80 Dental we offer a variety of denture and implant solution combinations which can help to replace your missing teeth. During your consultation, we’ll work with you to explore your options and what would work best for your health and your lifestyle.

Removable Implant-Supported Denture Options

There are two main types of ‘removable’ implant-supported dentures available which are press-studs or the SynCone method. For patients who already wear a denture but would like to improve the stability of it, the use of press-stud connections fitted to dental implants are the simplest and most cost-effective way to keep their denture securely in place. We find that the ability to stabilise the denture is a real bonus for many of our denture-wearing patients. It allows them to eat and speak normally without worrying about their denture dropping out. In addition, the fact that these dentures are removable for daily cleaning allows for a totally hygienic solution requiring very little professional maintenance.

Benefits of Implant Supported Dentures

  • Restores strength and stability to your bite, giving you the ability to chew all foods

  • More comfortable than conventional dentures

  • Discreet and aesthetically pleasing option for patients with naturally high smile lines (the position to which your lip rises on full smile)

  • Helps to preserve your jawbone

  • Removable and easy to clean

  • Cheaper and simpler than other dental implant solutions

High-Specification Production Materials

Our dentures are made to a very high specification, using an extremely strong acrylic material. The Bio-functional Prosthetic System (BPS) is the only acrylic dentures we use for any of our patients, as they have a far superior fit to any other denture system we have encountered. At one80 Dental, we’ve been working with this denture system for many years and have helped many patients during that time.

Clinical Expertise and Advanced Techniques

We have more than two decades of experience in the restoration of dental implants. This gives us an impressive breadth of knowledge to successfully meet our patients complex and challenging dental needs. Our specialist led team use some of the most advanced surgical techniques available, coupled with best clinical practice to ensure our patients receive exceptional results. These techniques are often more complex than placing the implant itself and require a high degree of clinical precision and expertise.

We’ll only ever propose solutions or treatments that are appropriate for your case. During your consultation, we’ll discuss our recommendations with you at length, so that you can guarantee that our assessment and treatment planning caters to all your individual needs.

Flexible Payment Plans

We offer a range of flexible payment plans, with finance options starting at 0%, so that you can pay for your treatment in a way that works best for you.

Implant Supported Dentures FAQs

Will the surgery hurt?

Our patients are often surprised at how little discomfort they experience during and after implant procedures. The procedures can be carried out using a local anaesthetic to keep you comfortable and sedation is also available if you are concerned about any aspect of the surgery. Our team will take good care of you throughout your treatment and will listen to any worries or concerns you may have.

I’ve been told that I don’t have enough jawbone for dental implants. Can I still be considered for implant supported dentures?

Yes. If using overdentures as a solution, insufficient bone isn’t such a barrier for treatment, in many cases an overdenture is one of the best ways to combat missing teeth. In addition, we have many techniques available at one80 Dental that can be used for patients with low levels of jawbone. We can use shorter implants, modify the artificial ‘gums’ of the overdentures to be longer than usual and/or we can use advanced surgical techniques such as 3D bone regeneration or bone grafting to essentially rebuild your jawbone ready for receiving implants, to support fixed bridgework or individual artificial teeth.

What if I don’t want a removable overdenture?

Some patients prefer to have fixed crowns or bridgework in their mouths rather than removable overdentures. At one80 Dental, there are several alternative solutions to dentures and removable implant-supported dentures, including All-on-4 dental implants.
