If you wear dentures and you’re tired of them slipping, rubbing, or making you self-conscious, implant-retained dentures could change everything. At Atrium Dental, we use advanced Ankylos® dental implants to hold your denture firmly in place, giving you the stability of fixed teeth at a more accessible cost than full-arch implants.

Implant-retained dentures (sometimes called overdentures or snap-in dentures) are dentures that clip securely onto a small number of dental implants — typically two to four per arch.
Instead of relying on suction and adhesive, your denture connects to the implants via discreet attachments. The result:
For many patients who have struggled with traditional dentures for years, this is the single biggest upgrade they’ve ever had.
Book AppointmentImplant-retained dentures are often the right choice if you:
Even patients with significant bone loss are often suitable, as just two implants per arch can dramatically improve denture stability.
We examine your mouth, look at your existing denture (if you have one), and discuss what you’d like to improve about your current situation.
A CBCT scan allows us to assess bone levels and plan the precise position of your implants for the most stable, comfortable denture fit.
Your implants — usually two to four per arch — are placed under local anaesthetic. The procedure is straightforward, and most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is.
Over several weeks, the implants bond with the bone, creating strong anchor points for your denture.
Your denture is either modified or a new one is made to clip securely onto the implants via discreet attachments. We’ll fine-tune the fit and feel.
Regular check-ups and hygienist visits help maintain implant health. The clip attachments may need occasional replacement — a quick, simple appointment.
Implant-retained dentures are designed to give you a major upgrade in stability without the higher cost of a fully fixed solution. Because every case is different, we provide pricing after your free consultation and 3D scan. The total cost depends on:
After your free consultation and 3D scan, we’ll provide a fully transparent, written treatment plan with all costs clearly itemised — no hidden extras, no surprises.
Finance plans available. Spread the cost with monthly payments (subject to status).
This is one of the most common questions we’re asked. Both use implants, but they’re very different solutions.
Implant-retained dentures might be right if:
Full-arch / All-on-4 implants might be right if:
We’ll talk through both options honestly at your consultation so you can choose the right approach for your priorities and budget.
Book AppointmentAll-on-4 is a treatment concept in which a full set of fixed teeth is supported by just four dental implants per arch. The implants are angled to make best use of available bone, often avoiding the need for grafting. We use this same evidence-based approach with our Ankylos® implant system.
In most cases, yes. We aim to fit a temporary fixed bridge on the same day as your implants, so you leave with a complete set of teeth — never with a gap.
Typically four to six per arch, depending on bone quality, bite forces, and the design of your final bridge. Your 3D scan will confirm exactly what’s needed.
Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, with sedation options available for nervous patients. Most patients report less discomfort than expected, even with a longer procedure than a single implant.
The full process typically takes 4–6 months from initial implants to final bridge. You’ll have a fixed temporary bridge throughout — you’re never without teeth.
Yes. Your full-arch bridge is custom-designed to match the shape, colour, and proportions of natural teeth, with attention paid to your face shape and smile line. Most people cannot tell the difference.
Full-arch / All-on-4 style treatment is specifically designed to use the bone you have. The implants are angled to take advantage of denser areas of bone, often avoiding the need for grafting. Many patients who’ve been refused traditional implants are suitable for this approach.
