What Are Implant Dentures and How They Work

Implant dentures are a type of denture that is anchored to dental implants instead of resting solely on the gums. The implants act as strong, stable supports, preventing slipping or movement and enhancing chewing efficiency. At Sunset Smiles Dental Care, we evaluate your oral health, bone density, and facial structure to design dentures that fit securely, look natural, and restore proper oral function.

Benefits of Implant Dentures

Implant dentures offer many advantages over traditional dentures. Key benefits include:

Improved stability

Secure fit prevents slipping, clicking, or irritation.

Enhanced chewing ability

Allows you to eat a wider variety of foods comfortably.

Preserved jawbone

Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and sagging.

Natural appearance

Custom-designed dentures match the shape, color, and proportion of your smile.

Long-lasting solution

Durable materials and implants provide a reliable, lasting restoration.

Types of Implant Dentures

Depending on your needs, implant dentures can be customized in different ways:

Fixed Implant Dentures

Permanently attached to implants for maximum stability and function.

Removable Implant-Supported Dentures

Can be taken out for cleaning while still offering superior stability compared to traditional dentures.

All-on-4 or All-on-6 Implant Dentures

Full-arch replacement supported by 4–6 strategically placed implants for comprehensive restoration.

What to Expect During Your Implant Dentures Treatment

Understanding the process ensures a smoother and more comfortable experience. Steps include:

  1. Initial consultation: Comprehensive oral exam, X-rays, and 3D imaging to assess bone and gum health.

  2. Implant placement: Surgical placement of dental implants into the jawbone.

  3. Healing period: Allowing the implants to fuse with the jawbone (osseointegration).

  4. Denture fabrication: Custom dentures designed to fit securely on your implants.

  5. Denture attachment: Final placement and adjustments for optimal comfort and function.

  6. Follow-up care: Regular check-ups to ensure implant stability and oral health.
