Implant-Supported Dentures
At MGA Dental, we are proud to offer implant-supported dentures, a revolutionary solution for patients seeking a secure, comfortable, and natural-looking alternative to traditional removable dentures. Whether you’re replacing a full or partial arch of teeth, implant-supported dentures provide unmatched stability and confidence, restoring both your smile and quality of life.
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures are a type of dental prosthetic that combines the benefits of traditional dentures with the stability of dental implants. Instead of resting on your gums, these dentures are securely anchored to implants placed in your jawbone. This creates a stronger, more reliable fit that eliminates the common issues associated with loose or ill-fitting dentures.
Key Benefits of All-on-X Dental Implants
Some key reasons to consider All-on-X dental implants include:
1.
Fixed Implant-Supported Dentures
- Permanently attached to the implants and can only be removed by your dentist.
- Offers the most natural feel and appearance.
2.
Removable Implant-Supported Dentures (Overdentures)
- Snap onto the implants for easy removal and cleaning.
- Provides flexibility while still offering excellent stability.
Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer a range of advantages, such as:
1.
Unmatched Stability
Say goodbye to slipping or moving dentures. Implant-supported dentures stay securely in place, even while eating or speaking.
2.
Natural Appearance
Custom-designed to match your facial structure, these dentures look and feel like natural teeth.
3.
Improved Comfort
Since they’re anchored to implants, implant-supported dentures eliminate the irritation caused by traditional dentures rubbing against the gums.
4.
Preserve Jawbone Health
Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining your facial structure.
5.
Long-Lasting Solution
With proper care, implant-supported dentures can last for many years, making them a cost-effective investment in your oral health.
6.
Enhanced Confidence
With a secure fit and natural look, you can smile, eat, and speak without worry.
Who Can Benefit from Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures are a great option for patients who:
- Have lost most or all teeth in the upper or lower arch
- Struggle with loose, uncomfortable traditional dentures
- Have enough jawbone to support implants or are open to bone grafting if necessary
- Want a stable, long-lasting solution for replacing missing teeth.
Our team at MGA Dental will assess your needs and help determine whether implant-supported dentures are the right choice for you.
The Implant-Supported Denture Process
The implant-supported denture process at MGA Dental involves several key steps to ensure a secure, comfortable, and long-lasting result:
1.
Initial Consultation
During your first visit, we’ll evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and use advanced imaging technology to create a personalized treatment plan.
2.
Implant Placement
Dental implants are strategically placed in your jawbone during a minor surgical procedure. The number of implants needed depends on the type of denture and your specific needs.
3.
Healing Period
Over the next few months, the implants will fuse with your jawbone in a process called osseointegration, creating a strong foundation.
4.
Denture Placement
Once healing is complete, your custom-made denture will be attached to the implants, completing your smile transformation.

Implant-Supported Dentures FAQs
Will I have to go without teeth while waiting for implant-supported dentures?
No. At MGA Dental, we can provide temporary dentures or bridges while your implants heal. This means you won’t be left without teeth during the treatment process.
How many dental implants are needed for implant-supported dentures?
It depends on your individual case. Full-arch restorations typically require 4 to 6 implants for stability. During your consultation at MGA Dental, we’ll use 3D imaging to determine the ideal number of dental implants to support your denture securely.
How long does it take to get used to implant-supported dentures?
Most patients adjust within a few days to a couple of weeks.
Can I remove implant-supported dentures for cleaning?
That depends on the type. Fixed dentures stay in place and are cleaned like natural teeth, while removable implant-supported dentures (overdentures) can be taken out daily for cleaning.
Are implant-supported dentures suitable for smokers?
Smoking can affect healing and implant success, but it doesn’t always prevent treatment.
