Implant Retained Bridges

What are implant-retained dentures?

Implant-retained dentures perform a similar function to traditional dentures, but instead of being held in place via an adhesive, they are fixed to the jaw via implants. The denture itself is removable.

What is the treatment process like?

The process of receiving implant-retained dentures usually takes a few months. We’ll first check your suitability for implant treatment via a CT scan – your next appointment would then be implant placement.

There is a wait of around two months while we allow the bone in the jaw to fuse with the implants. During this time, we can offer temporary dentures to wear, or if you already have dentures you can continue to wear them. During the final appointment, we will fit you for your new dentures.
