Implant-Retained Removable Denture (4–6 Implants)
Added Stability with the Flexibility of a Removable Denture
For patients looking for more stability than a traditional denture—but who prefer a removable option—an implant-retained removable denture can be an excellent solution. At Southwest Smiles Dental Clinic, this approach uses 4–6 dental implants to securely support a removable denture, improving comfort, function, and confidence while maintaining flexibility.
What Is an Implant-Retained Removable Denture?
An implant-retained removable denture is supported by dental implants placed in the jawbone. These implants connect to the denture using specialized attachments, helping keep it stable during everyday activities.
Unlike traditional dentures that rely solely on the gums, implant-retained dentures are anchored for improved security while still being removable for cleaning and maintenance.
