Overdentures (Implant Supported Dentures)

as low as $500/mo

Traditional dentures can be life-changing, but they don’t have to slip, click, or limit what you eat. Implant supported overdentures—also called snap-in dentures—represent a revolutionary advancement that combines the comprehensive coverage of dentures with the stability of dental implants. These innovative prosthetics attach securely to titanium implants placed in your jawbone, eliminating the frustrations of loose-fitting dentures while restoring confidence in your smile, speech, and ability to enjoy your favorite foods.

Unlike their traditional counterparts, implant-supported dentures won’t shift, slip or wobble when you chew, eat or speak. At Marietta Dental Professionals, we specialize in creating customized overdenture solutions that transform not just your smile, but your entire quality of life. Whether you’re struggling with loose lower dentures or seeking a more secure alternative to traditional upper dentures, implant supported overdentures offer the perfect balance of stability, comfort, and affordability.

Our Comprehensive Approach to Overdenture Excellence

Excellence in overdenture treatment requires understanding that every patient’s needs are unique. Our philosophy centers on creating solutions that not only function beautifully but also fit seamlessly into your lifestyle and budget. We believe that everyone deserves the confidence that comes with secure, comfortable teeth—and we’re committed to making that dream achievable through advanced implant technology.

“The transformation I see in patients who upgrade to implant supported overdentures is remarkable,” shares Dr. Amit Morar. “We’re not just improving their ability to eat—we’re giving them back their confidence to laugh, speak, and live without worry. The combination of implant stability with denture coverage creates the perfect solution for many patients.”

What Are Implant Supported Overdentures?

An implant-supported denture is an oral appliance that replaces several teeth at once. It’s similar to a traditional denture. But instead of resting on top of your gums, an implant-supported denture attaches directly to your jawbone using dental implants. This revolutionary approach provides the comprehensive tooth replacement you need with the security and stability you deserve.

The system consists of three precisely engineered components working in harmony:

  • Titanium Dental Implants: Dental implants are tiny threaded posts that replace missing teeth roots. Typically, two to six implants are strategically placed in your jawbone to create a stable foundation for your overdenture.
  • Specialized Attachment System: These precision connectors create the “snap” mechanism that allows your overdenture to attach securely to the implants. Common systems include ball attachments, bar attachments, or locator attachments.
  • Custom Overdenture: Your personalized denture is crafted to snap securely onto the implant attachments while maintaining the natural appearance and comprehensive coverage of traditional dentures.

There are fixed and removable options, allowing you to choose the solution that best fits your preferences and lifestyle needs.

Common Reasons Patients Choose Overdentures

  • Enhanced Stability and Security: Snap-in dentures are more stable than conventional dentures, which are made to be removable daily. They are less likely to become loose while speaking.
  • Improved Chewing Function: Research indicates that the chewing efficiency of individuals with natural dentition is 90%. Patients with overdentures came in at 79%, while complete denture wearers only enjoyed 59%.
  • Superior Comfort and Fit: Snap-in dentures tend to fit better and are more comfortable than conventional dentures. Wearing a snap-in denture also reduces friction on the gums.
  • Natural Appearance: Many people consider snap-in dentures to be more natural-looking than conventional dentures.
  • Bone Preservation Benefits: Conventional dentures rest on the gums and do not stimulate the jawbone, leading to gradual bone loss. Implant supported overdentures help maintain jawbone density.
  • Eliminates Adhesive Dependency: No more messy denture creams or worrying about your dentures coming loose at inconvenient moments.
  • Cost-Effective Solution: Overdentures provide many benefits of full mouth implants at a fraction of the cost, making advanced dentistry accessible to more patients.

What to Expect During Your Overdenture Journey

Comprehensive Consultation and Planning

Your overdenture journey begins with a thorough evaluation including 3D imaging to assess your jawbone health and density. Not all dental patients are candidates for getting implants. To assess your eligibility, your dentist will perform a detailed clinical examination, and will study your medical and dental records.

Preparatory Procedures (If Necessary)

If you do, then we’ll let you know what to expect from the procedure and how it will affect your dental implant stages. We’ll also discuss the cost of bone grafting. Some patients may require tooth extractions or bone grafting to ensure optimal implant success.

Implant Placement Surgery

The surgical process to install an overdenture is similar to placing a single implant to replace just one tooth. Your dentist will perform a comprehensive examination and review your medical and dental history. During this procedure, typically two to six implants are strategically placed in your jawbone.

Healing and Integration Phase

Generally, it takes about three to six months for the implants to integrate (fuse) with your jawbone. You’ll wear your healing denture while you wait for your implants to integrate. This temporary denture ensures you’re never without teeth during the healing process.

Attachment Placement

Once your implants have fully integrated, your dentist will attach the specialized connectors that will secure your final overdenture.

Custom Overdenture Creation and Delivery

Once your dental implants have healed, your dentist will take impressions of your upper and lower dental arches. They’ll send the impressions to a dental lab so a technician can begin crafting your new dentures. Your final overdenture is then carefully fitted and adjusted for optimal comfort and function.
