Are you struggling with missing teeth in your upper or lower jaw? At Amazing Smile Dentistry, we offer premium implant-anchored overdentures in Las Vegas that provide a comfortable, stable, and aesthetically pleasing solution to restore your functional smile.

What Are Overdentures?

Overdentures are removable dental prosthetics designed for patients who have lost all their teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. Unlike traditional dentures, our overdentures in Las Vegas are anchored to dental implants surgically placed in your jawbone, creating a secure foundation that prevents slipping or movement during eating and speaking.

These innovative dental solutions clip onto either ball or bar attachments positioned in the front part of your jaw. The implant-supported structure provides exceptional stability to your denture, ensuring optimal comfort and functionality without the need for messy denture adhesives.

Upgrade to stable, comfortable overdentures. Book your implant consultation for secure dentures today.

Why Choose Implant-Supported Overdentures?

Implant-supported overdentures offer several advantages over conventional dentures:

  • Enhanced Stability: The dental implants keep your denture firmly in place, eliminating embarrassing slips during conversations or meals
  • Improved Comfort: With secure anchoring, overdentures reduce gum irritation and pressure points common with traditional dentures
  • Better Chewing Function: Enjoy your favorite foods again with improved biting force and chewing efficiency
  • Bone Preservation: Dental implants help prevent jawbone deterioration that typically occurs after tooth loss
  • No Adhesives Required: Say goodbye to messy denture adhesives and creams

The Overdenture Procedure at Amazing Smile Dentistry

At our Las Vegas dental office, Dr. Joseph Gelo brings over a decade of implant dentistry experience to your overdenture treatment. The procedure typically involves:

  1. Comprehensive Evaluation: We’ll assess your oral health, bone density, and specific needs to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for implant-supported overdentures.
  2. Implant Placement: Using state-of-the-art CBCT technology, Dr. Gelo will strategically place dental implants in your jawbone. For overdentures, typically 2-4 implants are required per arch.
  3. Healing Period: The implants need time to integrate with your jawbone, usually 3-6 months, during which you may wear a temporary denture.
  4. Attachment Placement: Once the implants have fully integrated, we’ll place the ball or bar attachments that will connect to your overdenture.
  5. Custom Overdenture Creation: Our lab will create your custom overdenture designed to snap onto the implant attachments.
  6. Final Fitting: We’ll ensure your new overdenture fits perfectly and functions optimally before you leave our office.

Types of Overdentures Available in Las Vegas

At Amazing Smile Dentistry, we offer different types of overdenture solutions to meet your specific needs:

Ball-Retained Overdentures

These use a ball-and-socket mechanism to attach the denture to the implants. The denture contains sockets that snap onto ball-shaped attachments on the implants, providing excellent retention while allowing easy removal for cleaning.

Bar-Retained Overdentures

This system uses a thin metal bar that follows the curve of your jaw, attached to multiple implants. Your overdenture has clips or attachments that secure it to the bar, offering exceptional stability and even distribution of pressure.

Caring for Your Overdentures

Maintaining your implant-supported overdentures is straightforward:

  • Remove and rinse your overdenture after eating
  • Clean your overdenture daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive cleaner
  • Remove the overdenture at night to allow your gum tissue to rest
  • Visit us regularly for professional check-ups and adjustments
  • Keep the implant attachments clean according to our specific instructions
