If you want dentures that feel more secure than traditional styles, implant-supported dentures are a great option. By snapping onto small implants in your jaw, your dentures stay firmly in place without moving or slipping while you eat or talk.
At Ziaee Denture Clinic in Vancouver, we work closely with trusted dental surgeons to craft custom overdentures that snap on easily and feel like natural teeth.
In addition to stopping sore spots and slips, implants help keep your jawbone healthy and strong, preventing the bone shrinkage that often happens after tooth loss.
Implant dentures are ideal if you struggle with loose lower dentures, have smaller gum ridges, or dislike having the roof of your mouth covered by an upper denture.
We offer removable snap-on overdentures that attach securely to two to four implants, as well as bar-supported options for extra stability. Upper implant dentures can often be made with an open palate, allowing you to fully taste and enjoy your food.
We help patients explore their coverage under the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and private insurance, providing a clear breakdown of costs and timelines.
The process involves placing the implants, letting your bone heal, and fitting your custom denture over the attachments. Once attached, your new teeth snap securely into place.
Patients love the immediate difference in their everyday lives. You can bite into apples, enjoy meals with family, and laugh freely without worrying about messy adhesives or slipping teeth.
Taking care of your implant denture is simple. You take them out at night to brush them easily, and we check the small snap attachments during your regular visits to keep them fitting tightly.

Regular dentures rest on your gums using suction or clasps. Implant dentures snap directly onto small dental implants in your jaw, providing much firmer hold and better chewing strength.
For a lower denture, two to four implants usually give great stability. For an upper denture, four or more implants are typically used to allow for an open palate.
The minor surgical placement is done with local freezing to keep you comfortable. Most patients only feel mild soreness for a few days afterward, similar to a routine extraction.
If your existing dentures are in great condition and have enough acrylic thickness, we can sometimes add snap attachments to fit new implants.
Some components and denture services may be partially covered under the CDCP when medical criteria are met. We will check your plan details for you.
You remove the denture daily and clean it with a soft denture brush and water or mild cleanser. You also gently brush around the small posts in your mouth with a soft toothbrush.
