Implant retained bridges and dentures

A more comfortable and natural-feeling solution.

Looking and behaving more like your natural teeth, these treatments give you a secure and reliable replacement for missing teeth.

Implant-retained bridges and implant-retained dentures

Implant retained bridges

If you are missing two or more teeth in one area of your mouth or they are damaged, an implant retained bridge may be right for you. This treatment method can be a better solution than a fixed bridge or a partial denture.

Greater stability 

Typically, two implants are placed into the jawbone to support three or more connected crowns providing a longer lasting and more stable solution.

A more natural look and feel  

Compared with a fixed bridge, it will look and feel like your natural teeth and won’t affect neighbouring teeth. It will help keep your jawbone and gum healthy and intact and doesn’t need cement. While partial dentures can feel uncomfortable and cause problems with speech and eating, an implant retained bridge will restore a fully natural feel to your mouth

 

Implant retained dentures

Do you find dentures uncomfortable, ill-fitting and loose? Maybe you’re fed up with using unpleasant adhesive? Conventional dentures can move around when talking and eating and shrinking gums mean the problem just gets worse.

More secure, longer lasting

Implant retained dentures are secured to dental implants placed into your jawbone, providing a reliable and secure support. They are a long-term solution and will help keep your jawbone healthy following tooth loss.

More comfortable

As they don’t rely on suction to stay in place, they are smaller than a conventional denture and so cover less of your mouth, giving you back more sensation.
