Implant-Retained Dentures

Dentures can get a bad reputation for being uncomfortable and loose. However, with implant-retained dentures, those days are gone. At Fairwood Dental Center in Renton, WA, we offer implant-retained dentures so that patients can get the most out of their smiles and actually enjoy wearing them!


In order to place implant-retained dentures, first, mini dental implants are placed along the upper and/or lower jaw lines. Usually, between four and six are used per jaw line. The dentures are then modified so that they clip right into the mini implants.


The dentures are easy to clip in for patients, so they can be clipped in and out just like normal dentures. The implants give the dentures a stable base so that they fit perfectly. No more moving around while smiling, talking, laughing, or eating. You can now have conversations with people with confidence! Implant-retained dentures also help keep the jawbone from degenerating as quickly! So your dentures will fit better for longer.


Mini dental implants are about half the size of full-size implants, so no surgery is required to place them and they heal quickly. Often, the patient’s dentures are able to be clipped in the same day.


Implant-retained dentures allow comfortability and confidence. To set up an appointment with Fairwood Dental Center in Renton, WA, call our office at (425) 271-7725 or visit our website, www.fairwooddental.com
