Implant retained dentures are full arch prosthetic solutions supported by dental implants placed in the jawbone. Unlike traditional removable dentures that rely mainly on the gums for support, implant-retained solutions are designed to provide improved stability, comfort, and chewing support. Depending on the treatment plan, solutions may include removable implant overdenture options or advanced LOCATOR FIXED® full arch solutions designed for improved stability, retention, and long-term smile function, tailored to your oral health needs and smile goals.
