Traditional dentures rest on the gums, while implant-retained dentures clip onto implants, offering improved stability and comfort.
Instead of resting solely on the gums, the denture attaches securely to a small number of implants, giving you a more confident bite and reducing the movement often associated with traditional dentures. For patients who struggle with loose dentures or want a more secure solution, implant-retained dentures offer a reliable and comfortable alternative.

Alongside implant-retained solutions, we also provide high-quality traditional dentures. These remain a suitable and effective option for many patients, particularly when implants are not appropriate or desired, or when a simpler treatment approach is preferred. We take the time to discuss all available options with you, ensuring your denture choice aligns with your comfort, oral health, and long-term needs.
