Case #8 Implant Overdenture 

In this case the patient came from another office looking for a second opinion. Another office had recommended implant bridges, which, would have been very costly, and would not have worked out in his situation because of his collapsed bite. 

​

The remaining upper teeth were removed, and implants placed in their position. The complete upper denture was then fixed to the implants with attachments. This provided a very secure attachment of the denture. The system we use allows different levels of retention/tightness. We were also able to remove the palatal coverage which traditional dentures have to rely on for retention.
