Fixed Overdentures
A denture that is securely anchored to dental implants, offering the stability of fixed teeth.
What is Fixed Overdentures?
A fixed overdenture is a full denture that is securely attached to several dental implants placed in the jaw, offering significantly more stability than a traditional removable denture, since it does not rely on suction or adhesive alone. Once your implants have fused with the jawbone, typically after a healing period of a few months, your custom denture is permanently or semi-permanently attached to them, functioning much like natural teeth. This combines the full tooth replacement of a denture with the stability and confidence of implant-supported teeth.
Why is this procedure performed?
- Complete tooth loss combined with a desire for maximum denture stability
- Difficulty with the fit or stability of a traditional removable denture
- Sufficient jawbone available to support dental implants
- A desire to eat and speak with confidence, without denture movement
- Wanting a longer-term, more secure alternative to removable dentures
How does this procedure help?
By anchoring your denture securely to dental implants, a fixed overdenture eliminates the slipping and movement that can affect traditional dentures, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with significantly more confidence and comfort. Many patients describe the experience as far closer to having natural teeth than a removable denture provides. With proper care, implant-supported overdentures can offer many years of reliable, stable function.
