Implant Retained Dentures on the Central Coast


Improve Stability with Implant Retained Dentures


If you’ve experienced loose or uncomfortable dentures, implant retained dentures may offer a more secure solution. These dentures are held in place by dental implants, helping to reduce movement while eating, speaking or smiling. At Complete Denture Clinic, we work with your implant provider to design a denture that attaches comfortably to your existing implants.


This option can be suitable for those who struggle with traditional dentures or have difficulty maintaining a proper fit. The result is a more stable, functional denture that stays in place during daily use. While not everyone is suited to implants, this service may be worth exploring if comfort is an ongoing concern.

What Are Implant Retained Dentures?


Implant retained dentures are removable prosthetic teeth that connect to small metal implants surgically placed in the jaw. These implants act as anchors, holding the denture in place with attachments such as clips or bars. Unlike conventional dentures, which rest on the gums, this type offers more stability and can improve comfort while eating or speaking.


Implant retained dentures are commonly used for the lower arch, where suction is limited, but they can be made for the upper arch too. They are taken out daily for cleaning, similar to standard dentures. This option blends the removability of dentures with the enhanced stability provided by dental implants.

Are Implant Retained Dentures Right for You?


If you're considering more secure dentures, the following may help you decide whether this option fits your needs:


  • You struggle with loose or shifting lower dentures
    Implant retention can provide additional grip, especially where suction is limited.
  • You’ve already had implants placed and need a denture to match
    These dentures are custom-fitted to work with your implant positions and attachments.
  • You’re looking for a balance between stability and removability
    Implant dentures offer the ability to remove the prosthetic for cleaning, while still holding firm during the day.
  • You want better support while chewing and speaking
    Greater security can improve your confidence and reduce irritation caused by movement.
  • You’re unable to tolerate traditional dentures due to fit issues
    Implant retained dentures may be a more comfortable alternative for long-term use.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • What is the difference between implant retained and implant supported dentures?

    Implant retained dentures clip onto implants but are still removable, while implant supported dentures are fixed in place. Both use implants, but the level of permanence differs. The right option depends on oral health and lifestyle.

  • Do implant retained dentures require special care?

    They are removed daily and cleaned like traditional dentures. Extra care is taken to clean around the implants and attachments. Routine check-ups help maintain hygiene and function.

  • Is the procedure reversible if I change my mind?

    Yes, the denture itself can be remade to suit different needs. However, the implants remain unless removed surgically. Most people find the added support beneficial and choose to continue.
