What Are Implant Supported Dentures?
Implant supported dentures are similar to traditional dentures in the way they than be taken in and out of the mouth, but they are held in place by dental implants. Dental implants are small screws that are surgically implanted into the jawbone. Implant supported dentures are more stable than traditional dentures and they do not require any adhesive. However, implant supported dentures are more expensive than traditional dentures and they require surgery.
Who Needs Implant Supported Dentures?
Implant supported dentures are typically recommended for individuals who have lost multiple teeth, especially when traditional dentures don’t provide the needed stability.
Those dissatisfied with the discomfort, movement, or difficulty associated with regular dentures might find relief with implant supported versions. This option is particularly beneficial for those seeking a secure tooth replacement that doesn’t rely on adhesives, as well as for individuals with bone loss in the jaw.
Implant supported dentures improve quality of life by restoring confidence, appearance, and normal oral functions like eating and speaking. However, candidacy depends on factors like oral health, bone density, and overall health, so consultation with a dental professional is essential to determine the best solution.

How Are Implant Supported Dentures Placed?
The placement of implant supported dentures involves a multi-step process that combines dental expertise, careful planning, and surgical precision. Here’s an overview of the steps:
Initial Consultation and Treatment Planning
The process begins with a thorough consultation with your dentist. During this appointment, your oral health, medical history, and specific needs are assessed to determine if you are a suitable candidate for implant supported dentures.
If implant supported dentures are deemed appropriate for you, a personalised treatment plan is created. This plan includes the number and location of dental implants needed, as well as the type of denture that will be used.
Implant Placement
The next step is the surgical placement of the dental implants. This involves the insertion of small titanium posts into the jawbone. The number of implants placed depends on the type of implant-supported denture you are getting—partial or full arch. Local anaesthesia is used to ensure your comfort during the procedure.
Healing Period (Osseointegration)
After implant placement, there is a healing period during which osseointegration occurs. Osseointegration is the process in which the dental implants fuse with the jawbone, providing a stable foundation for the denture. This process typically takes several months, allowing the implants to become fully integrated and secure.
Abutment Placement
Once osseointegration is complete, abutments (small connector pieces) are attached to the dental implants. The abutments protrude through the gumline and serve as anchor points for the denture.
Denture Fabrication and Final Placement
Impressions or digital scans are taken of your mouth to create a custom denture that fits perfectly over the abutments. The denture is designed to match the appearance of natural teeth and provide optimal function and aesthetics.
The custom denture is then attached to the abutments. The denture snaps onto the abutments securely, providing stability and comfort. Your dentist will ensure that the denture fits well and functions properly.
How Long Do Implant Supported Dentures Last?
The longevity of implant supported dentures varies depending on factors like oral hygiene, overall health, implant quality, and adherence to dental care recommendations.
With proper care and maintenance, implant supported dentures can endure for many years, often spanning decades. Consistent oral hygiene practices, regular dental check ups, implant quality, bone health, and following usage guidelines all contribute to extending the lifespan of these dentures.
While wear and tear might require occasional replacement of attachments, open communication with your dental team and diligent care practices can help ensure the lasting success of your implant-supported dentures.
