Implant overdentures

A removable full-arch denture that snaps securely onto implants — stable enough to chew with confidence, easy to clean.

Implant overdentures give denture-wearers the stability they've been missing — secure while you wear it, removable when you clean it.

A denture that finally stays put

If you wear a traditional denture — or you're dreading one — implant overdentures offer a dramatically more stable, comfortable alternative. Instead of resting on your gums and relying on adhesive, an overdenture snaps securely onto two to four implants. It's removable for easy cleaning, but rock-solid while you wear it.

That stability changes everything: you can chew confidently, speak clearly, and laugh without worrying about your teeth shifting. And because the implants engage your jawbone, an overdenture helps slow the bone loss that makes conventional dentures fit worse over time.

Who overdentures are great for

  • Current denture-wearers frustrated by slipping or sore spots.
  • Patients who want full-arch stability at a friendlier price than a fixed bridge.
  • Anyone replacing a full arch who still wants to remove it for cleaning.
The middle path. Overdentures bridge the gap between a traditional denture and a fixed All-on-4 arch — far more secure than a denture, more affordable than a fixed full arch.

How it works

Dr. Sheehan places the implants and fits your overdenture with precision attachments that click firmly into place. You'll feel the difference immediately — a snug, dependable fit you simply pop out to clean and pop back in.

Frequently asked questions

How is an overdenture different from a regular denture?
A regular denture rests on the gums and can slip. An overdenture snaps onto implants for a secure, stable fit while still being removable for cleaning.
How many implants do I need?
Most overdentures are anchored on two to four implants per arch. Dr. Sheehan will recommend the right number based on your bone and bite.
Can I take it out?
Yes — that's a key benefit. You remove it for easy daily cleaning, then click it securely back into place.
