Implant-retained dentures combine the stability of dental implants with the convenience of dentures, giving you a smile that feels stronger, more comfortable, and much more natural.
They’re dentures that clip onto dental implants placed in your jaw. Instead of resting on your gums alone, the implants hold them firmly in place, so they won’t slip or move when you talk or eat.

Traditional dentures rely on suction or adhesive to stay in place, which can sometimes feel loose or wobbly. Implant-retained dentures are secured to implants, so they feel far more secure and allow you to chew more confidently.
Not necessarily. Often, just 2 to 4 implants are enough to stabilise a denture. This makes them a more affordable alternative to having a full set of individual implants.
The implants are placed under local anaesthetic, so you’ll be completely numb during treatment. Some tenderness afterwards is normal, but most patients are surprised at how manageable the recovery is.
Yes. The dentures can be removed for cleaning, but when they’re in place, they’ll feel secure and stable. It’s the best of both worlds – easy care and everyday confidence.
