A denture that stays where it should
An implant-retained denture is a removable denture that clips onto two or more dental implants for a more secure fit than a conventional denture. If a regular denture feels loose, or you'd simply like more stability, an implant-retained denture connects to implants in your jaw. The result is a fit that holds firm while you eat and speak — without relying on adhesive.
Anchoring the denture to implants is what changes the day-to-day:
- Stays secure — no adhesive The denture attaches to your implants, so it holds firmly in place without denture paste.
- A more stable, comfortable fit With the denture anchored, many people find chewing and speaking feel more natural and secure.
- Clear about coverage first We confirm your CDCP or insurance coverage and explain any out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins.
Implant-retained dentures come in a few designs — snap-on overdentures that click onto the implants and lift out for cleaning, bar-retained versions that clip onto a slim bar joining the implants, and fixed full-arch options that stay in place. Your denturist will recommend the design that suits your jaw and your day-to-day. Curious about the bar option? See our guide to bar-retained implant dentures.

Implant-retained denture questions, answered plainly
If you do not see your question here, ask Smiley or bring it to your consultation.
Can’t find your question?
-
A regular denture rests on your gums, while an implant-retained denture attaches to dental implants in the jaw. That connection holds the denture securely so it doesn’t slip, and most patients find it more stable and comfortable when eating and speaking.
-
A snap-on overdenture clicks onto your implants and lifts out for cleaning. A fixed full-arch is a permanent bridge attached to the implants that stays in place and is brushed like natural teeth. Your denturist will help you decide which approach suits you as part of your plan.
-
No. Because the denture attaches to your implants, it stays secure without denture adhesive — one of the main reasons people choose this option.
-
Coverage varies, and implant treatment is handled differently from standard dentures. We check your CDCP or insurance coverage first and explain any estimated out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins, so you can plan with no surprises.
