This type of procedure is a revolutionary approach to full-mouth restoration for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth. It refers to the method of supporting an entire arch of false teeth using just four dental implants. These implants act as anchors for a full set of prosthetic teeth, providing a secure and comfortable fit.

For those who’ve experienced significant tooth loss, these dentures can be life-changing. They offer a permanent, stable solution that restores the functionality of natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile confidently. Unlike traditional dentures, they don’t require adhesives or special cleaning routines, making them a convenient choice for many patients.

The procedure involves placing four implants into your jawbone, two at the front and two at the back, creating a strong foundation for your new teeth. These implants are then used to support a full arch of prosthetic teeth. The entire process is usually completed in one appointment, and you’ll leave the clinic with a new set of teeth that look and function like natural ones.

The procedure provides numerous benefits. They offer a long-term solution to tooth loss, with the potential to last a lifetime with proper care. They restore not just the appearance of your smile, but also its functionality, allowing you to eat and speak normally. Plus, they’re more comfortable and stable than traditional dentures, enhancing your overall quality of life.

Implant SUpported Dentures FAQs

Implant-supported dentures are a full-arch restoration option where a complete set of missing teeth is secured on dental implants rather than just relying on traditional suction or adhesives. At Harbor Dental Clinic, this method is described as a minimally invasive technique that can replace an entire arch—sometimes even in one day. This means you get a stable, permanent solution that functions more like natural teeth and drastically improves comfort, chewing ability, and confidence.

 Ideal candidates include individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth in an arch or who need extraction of remaining teeth due to decay, and who are seeking a more permanent, stable solution than conventional dentures. Harbor Dental highlights that this technique is particularly suited for patients who want to avoid the slipping or discomfort often experienced with traditional dentures. Your dentist will assess bone health, overall oral condition, and your goals to confirm whether this treatment is appropriate for you.

The process begins with selecting a composite resin color that closely matches your natural tooth color. Then, the surface of the tooth is roughened and a conditioning liquid applied to help the bonding material adhere. The tooth-colored, putty-like resin is then applied, molded, and smoothed to the desired shape. An ultraviolet light or laser is used to harden the material, after which it is trimmed, shaped, and polished to match the rest of the tooth surface.

Implant-supported dentures offer far greater stability, superior chewing ability, they help preserve the jawbone (because implants stimulate bone like natural teeth), and they eliminate many of the adhesives or fit issues common with regular dentures. Harbor Dental emphasizes that this replacement method is a long-term solution that restores function, appearance, and confidence. By anchoring dentures to implants, patients experience fewer slips, less irritation, and a more natural feel when eating and speaking.

 Care for implant-supported dentures is very similar to natural teeth: brush twice daily, floss or clean around the implants as instructed, attend regular dental check-ups, and avoid harmful habits like chewing very hard items or using the implants as tools. With proper care, the implants and attached dentures can last many years—and in many cases become a lasting permanent solution. Harbor Dental will provide you with personalized maintenance guidelines and monitor your success over time to ensure the best possible outcome.
