Implant-Retained Dentures

If you’re seeking a more secure and stable alternative to traditional dentures, implant-retained dentures might be the perfect solution for you. At Purley Dental Care, we specialise in providing high-quality implant-retained dentures that offer superior stability, comfort, and functionality. These dentures are fixed to implants, fitting them securely and allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence.

What Are Implant-Retained Dentures?

Implant-retained dentures are a type of denture that is supported and held in place by dental implants. Unlike regular dentures that rest on the gums, implant-retained dentures are anchored to implants surgically placed into the jawbone. This creates a strong and stable foundation, preventing the dentures from slipping or moving while you eat or speak.

Benefits of Implant-Retained Dentures

Enhanced Stability: Implant-retained dentures are securely attached to dental implants, providing improved stability and preventing movement during eating and speaking.

Improved Comfort: With a secure fit, these dentures reduce the risk of gum irritation and discomfort that can be caused by traditional dentures.

Natural Appearance: Implant-retained dentures are designed to look and feel like natural teeth, offering a more aesthetically pleasing and natural smile.

Better Functionality: The secure fit allows for better chewing efficiency and speech clarity, enabling you to enjoy a wider variety of foods without worry.

Long-Term Solution: Implant-retained dentures are a durable, long-term solution that can last many years with proper care and maintenance.

The Implant-Retained Denture Process at Purley Dental Care

Getting implant-retained dentures involves a multi-step process to ensure the best possible fit and outcome:

1

Initial Consultation

During your first visit, we’ll assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if implant-retained dentures are the right option for you.

2

Implant Placement

 If suitable, dental implants will be surgically placed into your jawbone. These implants act as the foundation for your dentures and will need time to integrate with the bone.

3

Healing Period

The implants will need a few months to fully integrate with your jawbone, creating a solid base for your dentures. During this time, temporary dentures can be provided.

4

Impressions & Denture Creation

Once the implants have fully integrated, we’ll take detailed impressions of your mouth to create custom dentures that fit perfectly.

5

Fitting & Attachment

 Your custom dentures will be securely attached to the implants, ensuring a comfortable and stable fit. We’ll make any necessary adjustments to achieve optimal comfort and function.

6

Follow-Up Care

Regular follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor the fit and health of your implant-retained dentures, ensuring long-term success.

Caring for Your Implant-Retained Dentures

Proper care is essential to maintaining the longevity and comfort of your implant-retained dentures:

  • Daily Cleaning: Clean your dentures daily using a soft brush and a non-abrasive denture cleaner to remove food particles and plaque.
  • Oral Hygiene: Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing your gums, tongue, and any remaining natural teeth to prevent infection and ensure overall oral health.
  • Regular Check-Ups: Visit Purley Dental Care regularly to ensure your dentures and implants remain in good condition and to address any issues that may arise.
  • Avoid Hard Foods: While implant-retained dentures are durable, it’s advisable to avoid excessively hard or sticky foods that could damage the dentures or implants.
