Dental implants are a modern dental phenomenon and we are incredibly proud to offer implant treatment and implant-retained dentures right here in Bristol. If you’re not up to scratch with implant info, here is a guide to the ins and outs of implant-retained dentures:
What are dental implants and when are they used?
Dental implants are a modern solution for patients with missing teeth and can be used as an alternative to dental bridges and dentures. Implants are made from titanium, which is a biocompatible material. This means that once the implant is placed inside a socket in the jaw bone, it can integrate into the actual bone tissue. Integration facilitates enhanced stability, which means that the new tooth offers the same level of strength and functionality as a healthy natural tooth.
Dental implants are suited to most people with missing teeth, as they are compatible with various different restorations including bridges, dentures and single crowns.
Everything you need to know about implant-retained dentures
Implant-retained dentures are secured by dental implants. With this treatment, you can enjoy all the benefits of implants and dentures combined. Sometimes, people have issues with dentures, such as a poor fit, irritation and limited ability to enjoy a wide range of foods. With implant-retained dentures, none of these issues are a concern and you can enjoy peace of mind that your denture is completely stable.
Implant-retained dentures may be advisable for patients who have experienced problems with traditional dentures in the past or those who have a large number of missing teeth. Implants are built to last for many years and provide the closest match to natural teeth. If you’d like to find out more, simply call reception or pop in and book an appointment.

Dentures have always been a great way to retain the mouths occlusion (bite) and spare the jaw joints from damage after tooth loss. They are also a good for preventing the face from sagging and hence, the appearance of premature ageing. However, people have never felt comfortable wearing them in the past; they not only looked ‘fake’ but they were also hard to keep in, especially as the gums start to shrink over time. However, modern techniques in their manufacture have seen them being produced from softer materials that can cater for such change in the gums and stick better to the inside of the mouth; combined with dental implants and adhesives, dentures sit true and firmly in place. Whether you have full dentures or partial ones, they are a cheaper and more manageable option to choose; plus, they restore your smile and keep you happy. Bath is blessed by having Clifton Dental working in the area and these are the people to get in touch with if you have any questions about dentures; they can tell you all about where to get them done, the costs involved and the other back-up treatments that come with them.
