Removable vs fixed implant dentures
There are two main options. A removable overdenture snaps onto two or more implants and can be taken out for cleaning. A fixed implant denture is secured permanently and only removed by your dentist. Dr. Kadivar will help you choose based on your bone, budget and lifestyle.
Why patients love implant dentures
- No more denture adhesives or embarrassing slipping
- Eat the foods you love again with confidence
- A secure, comfortable fit that protects the jawbone
- Fewer implants needed than a full set of single implants
Frequently asked questions
How many implants are needed for implant dentures?
A lower overdenture often needs just two implants, while fixed dentures usually use four or more. Dr. Kadivar determines the right number after reviewing your 3D scan.
Can my existing denture be converted?
In some cases an existing, well-fitting denture can be modified to snap onto implants. We will assess this during your consultation in Markham.
