Could a more secure fit be worth it for you?
Maybe your current denture shifts when you talk, or you'd just like to stop thinking about it altogether. An implant-retained denture clips onto implants set into your jaw, so it stays put through a meal or a conversation — and adhesive becomes a thing of the past.
Linking the denture to implants is what really changes everyday life:
- Holds firm — adhesive-free Clipped onto your implants, the denture stays put on its own, with no need for messy paste.
- Steadier and easier to live with Because it's held down, plenty of patients tell us biting and talking start to feel more like their own teeth.
- No surprises on cost Before anything starts, we look at your CDCP or insurance coverage and walk you through any amount you'd pay yourself.

An everyday denture simply sits on top of your gums; an implant-retained one fastens to implants anchored in the jawbone. With that anchor in place the denture can't wander, and a lot of people tell us eating and talking feel noticeably steadier.
-
A snap-on overdenture presses onto the implants and can be taken out to clean. A fixed full-arch is more like a bridge that's secured to the implants and stays in your mouth, brushed the way you'd brush real teeth. As part of your plan, your denturist will talk through which one is the better match for you.
-
They don't. Since the denture grips the implants directly, it holds without any paste or gel — for many patients that's exactly why they make the switch.
-
It depends on your plan, and implant work is treated differently from a standard denture — the implant components themselves may not be covered under CDCP. We'll review your CDCP or insurance first and give you an estimate of any cost you'd carry before we start, so nothing catches you off guard.
