Why Choose Beam Dental
Our dedicated team of dentists, implant specialists, hygienists, and care specialists in Malvern, PA, works together to create a convenient dental experience.
If you are missing most or all of your teeth, implant overdentures combine the convenience of a removable prosthetic with the stability of dental implants. Often called snap-in dentures, they attach securely to titanium posts placed in the jawbone instead of relying on suction or messy adhesives. That connection provides much better comfort and function, especially when you are speaking or eating.
At our Malvern office, we make sure your overdentures are comfortable for daily wear and easy to maintain. They are a great option for patients who want a more reliable fit than traditional dentures. During your consultation, our team will evaluate your jawbone density to determine whether you are a good candidate for implant placement.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clean and maintain them?
You should remove the dentures daily to rinse and brush them with a soft cleaner. It is also important to clean around the implants in your mouth to maintain healthy gums.
How do snap-in dentures actually work?
Your dentist surgically places implants into the jawbone, which then heal and fuse with the bone over several months. Once healed, custom dentures are created to connect directly to those implants using specialized attachments.
How long can I expect my overdentures to last?
The titanium implants are highly durable and can last 20 years or more with proper care. The removable overdenture itself typically lasts around 10 years before it may need to be repaired, replaced, or relined for a better fit.
How many implants will I need for my overdentures?
The number of implants varies for each patient based on factors like jawbone density and whether the overdenture is for the upper or lower jaw. Generally, at least two implants are used for the lower jaw, while the upper jaw typically requires four to six.
What are the primary benefits of implant overdentures?
Unlike traditional dentures, these snap onto implants, making them much more stable and reliable for chewing and daily activities.
