Secure Dental Implants

At Ballina Denture Clinic, we provide implant overdentures for patients throughout Ballina and surrounding areas, including Byron Bay, Lismore, Alstonville, Lennox Head and Bangalow. Not sure what implant overdentures are? That’s what we’re here for. Implant overdentures, also known as implant-retained dentures, are attached over dental implants with the purpose of ensuring full and partial dentures are fitted securely, thereby improving speaking, eating and general comfort. Implant overdentures are especially useful when it comes to lower full dentures, where often the bone is flat or has shrunk down so much that it provides little support for the denture. If you’re struggling with insufficient denture function, talk to our compassionate team today to book an obligation-free consultation.

Implant Overdenture Benefits

There are many benefits to having overdentures fitted. These include:

Improved digestion – if your dentures are held by adhesives, you might be interested to know that overdentures use dental implants, which makes them more stable than adhesive-held dentures. By having implant overdentures, patients are able to chew food thoroughly, which assists in the breakdown of food in your stomach and thereby allows greater absorption of nutrients.
Reduced bone loss – implant overdentures simulate and stimulates a patient’s jaw bone when chewing. This reduces shrinkage, which is typically the result of missing teeth.
Retained facial structure & features – missing teeth can cause your face to appear ‘sunken’ and prematurely aged, as the area between your nose and chin shrink. Implant overdentures work to reduce this.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will dentures change the way I speak?

You may have some difficulty saying certain words. However, with practice and time, you’ll become accustomed to speaking properly with your denture. We recommend spending extra time practicing on those hard-to-say words.
Will I look the same with new dentures?

Dentures are made to resemble your natural teeth as closely as possible, so there should be no noticeable change to your appearance. Your denture could even improve your smile and fill out your facial appearance.
How do I keep my dentures clean?

You’ll be provided with a starter pack that includes a daily denture care information leaflet and a sample of Polident denture cleanser. The best way to clean your denture is by holding it over a sink filled with water or over a folded towel. This will prevent it from being damaged if you drop it. Never use regular toothpaste on your denture, it is too abrasive and will cause damage.
