Full Implant-Supported Dentures

Implant-supported full dentures are used to replace an entire row of missing teeth. We use multiple implants to ensure a secure and stable fit. Implant-supported dentures are available in permanently-attached and snap-on (removable) models depending on your needs.

Implant-Supported Bridges or Partial Dentures

Implant-supported bridges or partial dentures are used to replace multiple missing teeth in a single arch. Depending on the location and number of missing teeth being restored, they are attached to one or more implants. Once implant-supported bridges or partial dentures are in place, they blend in with your natural smile.
