Overdentures
Experience enhanced comfort and confidence with overdentures, a stable and superior alternative to traditional dentures, offered by Rockingham Dental Centre.
What are Overdentures?
Overdentures, supported by dental implants, securely attach to your jaw, providing a secure fit without the need for adhesives. Beyond functionality, they contribute significantly to overall oral health by preventing bone loss associated with prolonged use of traditional dentures.
What is the Difference Between Dentures and Overdentures?
While traditional dentures rest directly on your gums, overdentures are supported by and attached to dental implants, this innovative dental solution provides a more secure and comfortable fit than its traditional counterparts. Overdentures offer the convenience of being removable just like traditional dentures, but without the need for denture glue or adhesives.
Distinguishing features of overdentures include the ability to effortlessly lock into position using special attachments, eliminating concerns about slipping or movement during daily activities.
Rockingham Dental employs advanced technology to ensure precise fit and optimal comfort for your overdentures.
