Implant Retained Overdentures
An overdenture is the solution to this. This is where a denture is supported by underlying dental implants. If an overdenture is to be considered in the upper arch, a minimum of 4 dental implants are required and a minimum of 2 in the lower arch. The bespoke overdenture is made of an acrylic material with custom teeth and a metal reinforcement. The main difference between an implant retained bridge/denture and an overdenture is that the overdenture is removed for cleaning where whereas the implant retained bridge/denture is fixed in the mouth.
In any case, the overdenture allows you to have a more stable denture, thus allowing you to enjoy food, reduce problems with speech and eliminate any pain associated with a conventional denture.

Frequently Asked Questions about Implant Retained Overdentures
What are implant retained overdentures and how do they work?
Implant retained overdentures are a modern alternative to traditional dentures, designed to feel more secure and comfortable in everyday life. Instead of sitting loosely on the gums, the denture is anchored to dental implants placed into the jawbone. These implants act as stable fixing points, allowing the overdenture to clip or attach securely into place. This added stability helps improve confidence when eating, speaking, and smiling, while still allowing the denture to be removed for cleaning.
How do overdentures implants improve comfort compared to regular dentures?
Traditional dentures can sometimes move, slip, or rub against the gums, particularly when eating or talking. With overdenture implants, the implants provide firm support, significantly reducing movement. This often means less irritation to the gums, better chewing ability, and greater confidence in social situations. Many patients tell us implant secured dentures feel more natural and predictable compared to conventional dentures.
Am I suitable for implant retained overdentures?
Implant retained overdentures are suitable for many patients who are missing several or all of their teeth and want a more stable alternative to standard dentures. Suitability depends on factors such as your general oral health, bone levels, and medical history. At YOR Dental, we carry out a thorough consultation and digital scans to assess whether overdentures implants are right for you. If additional preparation is needed, we’ll explain this clearly and guide you through your options.
What is the treatment process for implant secured dentures?
Your journey begins with a consultation and detailed planning using advanced imaging. Dental implants are placed into the jaw under local anaesthetic, and once healed, the overdenture is securely fitted to the implants. In some cases, temporary solutions may be provided while healing takes place. Throughout the process, our team focuses on comfort, clarity, and support, ensuring you always understand what’s happening and what to expect next.
How long do implant retained overdentures last?
With proper care, implant retained overdentures can last many years. The dental implants themselves are designed to be a long-term solution, while the overdenture may need occasional adjustments or replacement over time due to normal wear. Regular check-ups at YOR Dental, good oral hygiene, and following aftercare advice all help maintain comfort, function, and longevity.

Before any treatment begins, we’ll provide a full cost breakdown and discuss flexible finance options, including interest-free plans where available, to help make implant secured dentures more accessible.
