Could Overdentures Help You Restore Your Smile?


Posted on 8/1/2025 by Bay Lakes Center for Complex Dentistry
An older woman with glasses smiling in a dentist chair, ready for her first dental visit.Have you lost some or all of your teeth? Do you struggle to eat or speak clearly? If so, you might be considering dentures. But did you know there's another option available called overdentures?

Overdentures are a type of removable denture that attaches to implants surgically placed in your jawbone. This provides a more secure and stable fit than traditional dentures, which can slip and slide around.

What are the benefits of overdentures?


•  Improved stability: Overdentures are much more stable than traditional dentures, which means you won't have to worry about them slipping or falling out. This can give you the confidence to eat, speak, and laugh without worry.
•  Enhanced chewing ability: The secure fit of overdentures allows you to chew more comfortably and effectively. This can improve your diet and overall health.
•  Preserved bone health: Traditional dentures can contribute to bone loss in the jaw, which can lead to facial collapse and further tooth loss. Overdentures help to preserve bone health by stimulating the jawbone.
•  Improved oral health: Overdentures are easier to clean than traditional dentures, which can help to improve your oral health.
•  Increased confidence: Overdentures can give you back your natural smile and improve your self-esteem.

Are overdentures right for you?


If you are missing some or all of your teeth and are looking for a more stable and comfortable denture option, then overdentures may be right for you. However, it is important to talk to your dentist to see if you are a candidate for this type of treatment.

What to expect with overdentures


The process of getting overdentures typically involves several appointments. First, your dentist will need to assess your oral health and determine if you are a good candidate for implants. If you are, then the implants will be surgically placed in your jawbone. After the implants have healed, your dentist will take impressions of your mouth and create your overdentures.

Once your overdentures are ready, your dentist will show you how to insert and remove them, as well as how to care for them.

Conclusion


Overdentures are a great option for people who are missing some or all of their teeth and are looking for a more stable and comfortable denture option. If you are considering overdentures, be sure to talk to your dentist to see if they are right for you.
