When a lower denture is a patient’s main issue, dental implants can be used to improve the functionality of a complete denture. This can be done by creating a mechanism for the denture to snap onto the implants. This type of implant denture is called an overdenture. Implant supported overdentures, for many years, have been deemed one of the simplest ways to stabilize ill-fitting dentures. Since most upper dentures offer ample stability and retention without implants, many patients choose implant overdentures solely on the lower jaw.
