Fixed Dentures
Overdentures
Dentures can be a very effective way to replace some or all of a patient’s teeth. However, in some cases patients find dentures difficult to use and may even struggle to keep the denture securely in place. Implants can be used as anchors to which the denture is attached improving retention and making the denture easier to use. This is also known as a “snap-on denture.” No denture adhesives are needed when implants are used to snap the denture in place.
All-on-4
All-on-4 places at least 4 implants on the maxilla (top) or mandible (bottom). The implants are used to fix a full arch of teeth in place. These teeth do not come in and out like overdentures and feel more like natural teeth.
