A Smarter Denture Alternative That Stays Put

Tired of dentures that slip, shift, or cause irritation? Implant-supported dentures offer a secure and long-lasting alternative to traditional removable dentures. Using a few strategically placed dental implants, these overdentures provide greater stability, improved chewing power, and renewed confidence.

At Glenpool Dental Group, we help patients transition from loose dentures to a more permanent, comfortable solution — so you can eat, speak, and smile without worry.

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures are full or partial dentures that attach to dental implants placed in the jaw. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, these prosthetics “snap” or “lock” into place, offering a secure and more natural-feeling fit.

Depending on your needs, these may be:

  • Removable (Snap-On) – Removed at night but secured during the day
  • Fixed (Non-Removable) – Permanently attached and only removed by your dentist

They’re ideal for patients missing most or all of their teeth and looking for a stable, long-term solution without full mouth implants.

Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures

Choosing implant-retained dentures comes with multiple advantages:

  • Improved stability – No slipping or adhesive required
  • Better chewing efficiency – Eat more of the foods you love
  • Bone preservation – Stimulates the jawbone to prevent deterioration
  • Enhanced comfort – Less gum irritation and pressure
  • Natural appearance – Custom-designed for a lifelike smile
  • Longer lifespan – Fewer adjustments or relines compared to traditional dentures

These dentures offer a balance of affordability and performance — especially for long-term denture wearers ready for an upgrade.

Am I a Candidate for Implant-Supported Dentures?

You may be a good candidate if you:

  • Are missing all or most of your teeth
  • Wear traditional full or partial dentures
  • Have adequate jawbone (or are willing to undergo bone grafting)
  • Are in generally good health and free of active gum disease

We’ll take digital X-rays and scans to evaluate your bone structure and walk you through your options during a consultation.

How the Procedure Works

The process of getting implant-supported dentures involves multiple steps:

  1. Initial Consultation & Planning: We evaluate your oral health and bone density to determine if you’re a candidate.
  2. Implant Placement: 2–6 dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone per arch.
  3. Healing & Osseointegration: Over the next few months, the implants fuse with the bone for a strong foundation.
  4. Attachment of Dentures: Once healed, your custom denture is attached to the implants — either permanently or with snap-on attachments.

Throughout the process, we prioritize patient comfort, careful planning, and clear expectations.

How many implants are needed?

Most implant-supported dentures use 2–6 implants per arch, depending on whether they’re removable or fixed.

Do implant-supported dentures stay in permanently?

They can be either removable (snap-on) or fixed (non-removable). We’ll discuss what’s best for your lifestyle and needs.

Will I be without teeth during healing?

No — we typically provide a temporary denture to wear while your implants heal and integrate with the bone.

Are implant-supported dentures painful?

Implant surgery is performed with local anesthesia, and most patients experience only mild soreness afterward. We also offer sedation options for added comfort.

How long do they last?

The implants can last a lifetime with proper care. The denture itself may need replacement every 10–15 years.
