What Are Implant-Retained Fixed Complete Dentures?

Implant-retained fixed complete dentures are custom-made restorations that replace a full set of teeth by anchoring directly to dental implants placed in the jaw. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums and may move or slip, implant-supported dentures permanently lock into place for added stability and support.

Depending on your needs, most patients require two to six implants per arch (upper or lower).

When Are Implant-Retained Fixed Complete Dentures a Good Option?

Implant-supported dentures are typically recommended for patients who:

Have lost most or all their teeth
Have enough healthy jawbone to support implants
Are looking for a more stable and long-lasting alternative to traditional dentures
Are in good general and oral health

A thorough evaluation with our team will help determine if you’re a good candidate.

The Implant-Retained Fixed Complete Dentures Procedure

The first step is a friendly consultation and some imaging so we can get a clear look at your jawbone and dental health. If everything looks good, we will schedule the implant placement surgery.

After the procedure, there’s a healing period—usually a few months—so the implants can bond with the jaw. After your mouth has fully healed, we attach your custom denture to the implants for a permanent tooth replacement.
