A Secure, Comfortable Upgrade from Traditional Dentures

If you’re tired of loose, uncomfortable dentures, implant-supported dentures offer a more stable and reliable solution. At Dental Implants of Buffalo, we provide advanced denture options that are anchored to dental implants—giving you improved comfort, better function, and renewed confidence in your smile.

This treatment combines the affordability of dentures with the strength and stability of dental implants, creating a solution that looks natural and stays securely in place.

Implant-supported dentures

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?

Implant-supported dentures are dentures that attach to dental implants placed in the jawbone. Instead of resting directly on the gums like traditional dentures, they are supported by implants that act as anchors.

Depending on your needs, these dentures can be:

  • Removable – Snap securely into place and can be taken out for cleaning
  • Fixed – Permanently attached and only removed by a dental professional

Both options provide significantly more stability than traditional dentures.

Why choose implant-supported dentures

Why Choose Implant-Supported Dentures?

Traditional dentures can slip, shift, and make it difficult to eat or speak with confidence. Implant-supported dentures eliminate many of these common frustrations.

Benefits include:

  • A secure fit that won’t move or slip
  • No need for messy adhesives
  • Improved chewing ability and speech
  • Greater comfort and reduced gum irritation
  • Preservation of jawbone and facial structure
  • A natural-looking smile

This solution allows you to enjoy daily life without worrying about your dentures.

How the Process Works

Implant-supported dentures are placed through a multi-step process designed for long-term success.

1

Consultation and Evaluation

We assess your oral health, bone structure, and goals to determine the best treatment plan.

2

Implant Placement

Dental implants are placed into the jawbone to serve as anchors for your dentures.

3

Healing Period

The implants integrate with the bone over time, creating a stable foundation.

4

Denture Attachment

Your custom denture is designed and attached to the implants, completing your new smile.

In some cases, temporary dentures may be provided during the healing phase so you can maintain function and appearance.

Who Is a Candidate?

Even if you’ve experienced some bone loss, you may still be a candidate. A consultation will help determine the best approach for your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about implant-supported dentures at Dental Implants of Buffalo in Williamsville, NY.

Implant-supported dentures are a type of denture that attaches to dental implants placed in the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, implant-supported dentures are anchored securely, providing significantly improved stability and comfort.
Traditional dentures rest on the gum tissue and may shift or slip during eating and speaking. Implant-supported dentures are anchored to implants in the jawbone, eliminating movement and providing a more secure, natural-feeling fit.
The number of implants needed depends on the type of restoration and your bone structure. Typically, two to four implants per arch are used for removable implant-supported dentures. Fixed options may require more. Your treatment plan will be customized at Dental Implants of Buffalo.
Some implant-supported dentures are removable, allowing for easy cleaning, while others are fixed and non-removable. The right option depends on your preference, lifestyle, and oral health. We will help you determine which type is best for your needs.
With proper maintenance, implant-supported dentures can last many years. The implants themselves are designed for long-term use, while the denture portion may be replaced or updated as it wears over time.
Care instructions depend on the type of denture. Removable versions should be cleaned daily and soaked overnight. Fixed versions are brushed and flossed like natural teeth. Regular dental visits are essential to keep both the implants and denture in top condition.
