Implant-Supported Dentures
A denture that stays where you put it

If you already wear a denture, you know the problems no one warned you about: the slipping, the adhesive, the foods you quietly gave up. An implant-supported overdenture keeps the familiar format — it is still removable for cleaning — but snaps onto two to four implants, so it stays put when you chew and speak.
Where it fits between a denture and fixed full-arch
Think of three steps: a conventional denture (most economical, least stable), a snap-in overdenture (dramatically more stable, moderate investment), and a fixed full-arch bridge (does not come out, feels most like teeth, largest investment). The overdenture is the middle step — and for many denture wearers it is the step that changes daily life the most per dollar. A lower denture, which has the least natural suction, benefits most.
How it works here
Dr. Dillon plans implant positions on a CBCT 3D scan and places them in-office, with sedation available. Your existing denture can sometimes be adapted to snap in; other cases call for a new overdenture built for the attachments. Both doctors review the plan, and you will know which path applies to you — with an itemized, all-in figure — at your complimentary consultation.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How many implants does a snap-in denture need?
Commonly two to four in the lower jaw and four or more in the upper, depending on your bone. The 3D scan determines the number honestly — more is not automatically better.
Is an overdenture better than my regular denture?
For stability, chewing, and confidence — almost always, especially on the lower jaw. It still comes out for cleaning, which some patients prefer and some see as a downside. If you want teeth that never come out, ask us about fixed full-arch instead.
Can my current denture be converted to snap in?
Sometimes, if it is in good condition and the fit allows attachment housings. We will tell you at the consult whether conversion is realistic or a new overdenture would serve you better.
