Most often, dentures are painful, inconvenient, and unstable. Such dentures can make chewing food difficult, limiting the foods that you once enjoyed.

The Implant Supported Overdenture treatment, available at our dental office in St. John's replaces your missing teeth with a full dental bridge supported by dental implants. Fewer implants are needed and overall, treatment, time and cost is reduced.

Advantages of Implant Supported Overdentures

• Cost-Effective Solution: Compared to other implant supported restoration methods, your new replacement teeth require fewer implants for each jaw. With few implants required, the cost is lower.
• Reduced Need for Bone Grafting: The special angled placement of two of the implants ensures a secure and stable anchorage for the replaced arch, often making bone grafting unnecessary.
• Faster Treatment and Healing Time: Your replacement arch can be attached to your implants immediately after insertion.

Scientifically proven and documented, Implant Support Overdentures have had good clinical outcomes from decade long studies with favourable results.
