IMPLANT SUPPORTED DENTURES

Implant supported dentures are designed to sit right on top of dental implants and provide a very secure fit and hold. They can be removed for regular cleaning and are unlikely to slip or become loose. Some patients, however, choose fixed implant supported dentures which serve as permanent teeth and are not removable. Regular dentures sit on the top of your gums and can cause bone deterioration. Over time, this leaves space that can lead to complications including slipping, clicking sounds, or a loose fit. Implant supported dentures are secured in the mouth by attaching to dental implants and are often used in the lower jaw.
