Benefits of Implant-Supported Dentures
Implant-supported dentures offer several benefits. These include:
Because they are attached to your jawbone, they don’t rub against your gums and move around. They are less likely to cause irritation and get dislodged.
Implant dentures make it easier to eat and speak compared to loose dentures. Because of their stability, you can chew and talk with ease.
Implants stimulate jawbone growth, which helps to keep it healthy and strong. This prevents bone loss and sagging, which can change your facial shape.
Compared to conventional dentures, implants can last for many years with proper care. They last an average of 10-20 years, while dentures must be replaced every 3-5 years.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Implant Supported Dentures
How do implant-supported dentures work?
Implants are titanium metal posts surgically placed in your jawbone that act as artificial roots. Over time, they fuse to your jaw bone, providing a solid anchor for your false teeth or artificial teeth. A set of dentures are then created and attached to your implants, giving a secure and stable fit.
How long do implant-supported dentures last?
The average lifespan of implant-supported removable dentures is 10-20 years, with proper care. This is much longer than regular dentures, which need to be replaced more often—every 3-5 years.
Implant-supported dentures are much more durable because they do not rely on the gums for support. This means they can withstand chewing forces better and are less likely to become loose over time.
Should I remove my implant-supported dentures at night?
Yes, it is highly advised that you take out your implant-supported dentures at night. Doing so gives your soft tissues a chance to “rest.” During this time, you can also brush your complete dentures and gums to keep them clean and healthy.
Are there any restrictions after getting implant-supported dentures?
Here are some things to avoid after your dental treatment:
- Eating hard or sticky foods that can damage this type of denture.
- Grinding your teeth which can cause your dental implants to loosen and fail.
- Smoking tobacco products.
This can decrease your success rate and affect healing after your implant surgery.
- Pausing or stopping oral hygiene habits.
Doing so can cause infection, gum disease, and other dental problems.
- Failing to visit your dentist for regular checkups and cleanings.
They are able to monitor the health of your dental implants and identify any potential problems.
How do I clean my implant-supported dentures?
To care for your implant-supported dentures, brush them with a soft-bristled toothbrush at least twice a day. You should also use mild, non-abrasive toothpaste. In addition, you should also soak them in a denture cleaning solution when not in use.
It’s important to visit your dentist regularly. They can provide professional cleaning services for your implant-supported dentures.
How do I know if my implant-supported dentures need to be tightened?
Here are some signs that your implant-supported dentures need adjustment:
- They feel loose.
- You can see gaps between your gums and your implant-supported dentures.
- They are causing pain or discomfort.
- You are having difficulty eating or speaking with them.
If you want to be certain, contact a qualified health practitioner. They will be able to perform an examination and determine if your implant-supported dentures are loose.
How much do implant-supported supported dentures cost?
The average price of implant-supported dentures can range from $21,300 to $35,300. However, this is an estimate and can vary. The final cost will depend on several factors, including the number of dental implants needed, the type of implants used, and whether you need additional work like bone grafting. It’s best to schedule an implant consultation with your dentist for an accurate price quote.
Though the cost of implants may be higher than other types of custom dentures, they are a long-term investment and provide many advantages. You should also contact your health insurance provider to see if they offer any coverage for your dental implant procedure.
