Permanent Dental Implants

How Permanent Dentures Work

Permanent dentures supported by a set of dental implants can be an attractive alternative for denture wearers and those who want more stability than what traditional dentures can provide. Also known as implant supported dentures, these dentures are secured to a set of dental implants that are fused to the jaw bone.

Bar-Retained Dentures

These types of dentures are secured to metal bars that run along the gum line. The bars are connected to dental implants to create a stable and secure foundation.

Ball-Retained Dentures

We can reduce the risk of dentures slipping by connecting the base of these dentures to a set of dental implants using a ball-and-socket mechanism..
