Implant-supported dentures, also known as overdentures, are a removable implant tooth replacement option designed to improve stability and comfort for patients missing multiple teeth or a full arch. For patients exploring dental implants in Perth, this treatment may provide a more secure alternative to removable teeth that rely on fit alone. They are custom made to fit your mouth and planned to support everyday function, comfort, and appearance.
In cases where a full upper or lower arch is being replaced, treatment may be provided as an implant-supported denture. This is a removable full-arch restoration that attaches to implants placed in the jawbone, improving retention and stability during activities such as eating and speaking, while still allowing the teeth to be removed for cleaning.
