Implant Overdenture
If you are missing all your teeth, you need a
full denture. There are several ways of doing this. You can have an
implant overdenture, as we explain here. You can have a series of implants
placed and teeth placed over these implants. This is the most comfortable
and functional option.
With an implant overdenture, two implants may be placed
in the front of your jaw, and they may or may not be joined by a
bar. The bar increases the retention and stability of the teeth. A
common complaint of people who wear
complete dentures is that they
are hard to keep in place, resulting in problems eating and
speaking, and also causing soreness as the teeth shift and rub on
the gums.
Another similar option is a
snap-on denture.

It is a bad idea to just have a completely
removable denture, and nothing placed to hold it in. What happens is
that, when your teeth are all extracted, your body senses that the
bone that used to support those teeth is no longer needed, and
begins to resorb the bone in order to use those minerals in other
places in your body. After several years, you will suffer from
facial collapse.
