At Impressions Dental Studio, we’re proud to offer custom removable dentures on implants to Gold Coast residents. Get the best of both worlds with security and flexibility – whenever you need it – and discover the confidence of a stable fit that lasts all day with high quality removable implant overdentures.

What Are Removable Implant-Retained Dentures?

Removable implant-retained dentures are dentures that snap onto small dental implants placed in the jawbone. Unlike fixed implant dentures that rest directly on the gums, implant-retained dentures are held securely by 2-4 implants, creating a stable base that minimises slipping while enhancing your chewing comfort. When it’s time to clean them, you simply unsnap the denture, making it easy to maintain your oral hygiene.

Benefits of Removable Implant-Retained Dentures

There are many benefits to implant overdentures. Just a few are listed:

Are You a Good Candidate For Removable Implant Retained Dentures?

Removable implant-retained dentures are ideal for individuals who want a secure, comfortable solution but prefer the option to remove their dentures at night or for cleaning. Candidates should have healthy gums and sufficient bone density to support implants, though bone grafting options are available for those with less bone volume.

Our Implant Overdenture Process

The ‘snap-in’ (or implant overdenture) option for your lower jaw could be a great alternative to traditional dentures, offering a more stable and comfortable fit. These removable implant dentures are held securely in place by two implants at the front of the lower jaw, allowing them to “snap” into position with attachments on both the implants and the denture itself. This setup provides a dependable, natural-feeling fit that rests partly on the implants and partly on the gums.

For those already wearing a lower denture or missing all lower teeth, our implant placement can be completed in just one day under gentle sedation. After allowing 3-6 months for the implants to heal, two more appointments will be scheduled to fit your new denture.

If you have lower teeth that need to be removed, we’ll handle that first and provide an immediate denture while your jaw and gums heal, ensuring your comfort throughout the entire process.

Typically, our removable implant-retained dentures last around 5-7 years before replacement is needed. Relining is recommended every 2 years, and retention caps may need yearly replacement, depending on how loose they become.
