Different types of implant-retained denture

Bar-retained implant dentures

Bar-retained implant dentures, also known as implant-supported overdentures, are a removable prosthesis that combines the stability of dental implants with the flexibility of dentures.

How it works

Dental implants are surgically placed in the jawbone and act as anchors for a metal bar. A removable overdenture with replacement teeth is then attached to the bar using clips.

Benefits

More stability and support than traditional dentures, and they can help prevent jawbone atrophy. A good option for people who have lost most or all of their teeth or who have significant bone loss.

Procedure
  1. 1. Implant placement

    The implants are surgically placed under local anaesthesia.

  2. 2. Healing

    The implants need to heal for 3–4 months.

  3. 3. Overdenture fabrication

    Once the implants have healed, dental impressions are taken to make the overdenture.

  4. 4. Overdenture attachment

    The overdenture is attached to the implants with a precision attachment system.

Locator-retained implant dentures

Locator-retained overdentures replace missing teeth with a removable denture that snaps into place over dental implants.

How it works

Dental implants are placed into the jawbone and act as artificial roots to support a removable denture. The denture snaps into place using button-like fittings called locators — secure, yet easily removable.

Benefits

Improves appearance, speech and eating capabilities, preserves jawbone and helps reduce wrinkles by supporting facial structure.

Advantages

Comfortable, convenient and no adhesives required — a user-friendly option for many patients. Easy to remove for cleaning, making daily maintenance straightforward.

Good for

Patients who want enhanced denture stability, those who may not be eligible for traditional dental implants due to lower jawbone density, and those with dexterity challenges.

Locator dentures are a type of freestanding abutment, generally more affordable and simpler than bar-retained options. They require an average vertical space of 8.5 mm for locator attachments.

Dental implants are placed in the jawbone to anchor your denture in place. They act as artificial tooth roots, providing stability and helping to maintain bone levels. With conventional dentures the bone will resorb, or shrink over time, which can cause the face to have a sunken look.
