Implant-Retained Overdentures

Secure Fit, Easy Maintenance

If you are missing all of your lower teeth and struggle with loose or uncomfortable traditional dentures, an implant-retained overdenture can significantly improve your comfort and chewing ability.

How it works:

  • Two dental implants are placed in your lower jaw

  • A custom denture is made to "snap onto" the implants for added stability

  • It remains removable for easy cleaning and maintenance

This option offers more confidence when chewing, speaking, and smiling — without the constant worry of slipping dentures.

Screw-Retained Fixed Dentures

Permanent, Non-Removable Solution

For patients seeking a more fixed and permanent alternative, a screw-retained denture may be the ideal solution. This involves:

  • Placing four or more implants in the jaw

  • Attaching a denture that is secured by screws and not removable by the patient

  • The denture is designed to hover slightly above the gum, allowing cleaning underneath

While daily cleaning requires a bit more effort and dexterity, many patients prefer the feel and convenience of this non-removable, natural-feeling solution.

Partial Dentures

Custom Solutions for Replacing One or More Teeth

If you're missing just a few teeth, a removable partial denture is a cost-effective and functional solution. Designed to fit around your remaining teeth, partial dentures:

  • Restore your ability to chew and speak

  • Improve facial structure and aesthetics

  • Prevent neighbouring teeth from shifting into the gap

Partial Denture Types & Materials

Our partial dentures are tailored to each patient and available in two main materials:

Metal-Based Partial Dentures

  • Thin, lightweight, and more hygienic

  • Structurally stronger and longer-lasting

  • Preferred when durability and precision fit are key

Acrylic Partial Dentures

  • A flexible solution for short-term or transitional use

  • Often used when cost is a consideration or when additional teeth may be lost in the near future
