Take Your Smile To The Next Level With Implant Retained Dentures
Combining the best of both worlds, implant retained dentures have the convenience of dentures and the reliability and longevity of dental implants. Let’s explore your options!
The Benefits of Dentures
Cost-Effective
Dentures have a lower up-front cost compared to surgical restorations like dental implants, and many dental insurance policies typically cover a portion of the cost, making it a financially accessible option.
Convenient & Simple Upkeep
Dentures offer the flexibility to be removed whenever you wish, allowing for ease in eating, drinking, and sleeping comfortably. They're also easy to maintain – just brush them as you would natural teeth and let them soak overnight in a specialized cleaning solution.
Non-Surgical Restoration
Unlike other tooth replacement options, dentures do not require surgery (except in cases where a tooth needs extraction). This makes dentures a minimally-invasive solution for missing teeth.
Digital Dentures
With innovative technology, we can digitally plan and create your full or partial dentures. 3D printing results in beautiful dentures that fit perfectly, without the wait.
The Denture Treatment Process
Digital Scans
Once your eligibility for treatment is confirmed, we will collaborate with you to develop a personalized treatment plan. Following this, our team will capture digital scans of your mouth. These images are used to craft your custom dentures using our 3D printing technology.
Tooth Extraction (If Needed)
In certain scenarios, tooth extractions might be necessary to accommodate your new dentures. To initiate this process, we will administer local anesthesia to ensure your comfort during the procedure. We will provide you with comprehensive care instructions to ensure a comfortable and pain-free recovery period.
Same-Day Fitting and Adjustments
Once your dentures are complete, we'll begin the fitting phase. This step involves meticulous adjustments to maximize the comfort and functionality of your dentures. Regular office visits for annual check-ups are recommended to maintain the quality of your dentures. With proper care, a set of dentures can serve you well for up to a decade.

Dentures are crafted from a robust combination of metal and acrylic, constructed on-site at our studio. The process begins with us taking digital scans of your teeth and gums.

At Express Dental Studio, our dentures are always printed on-site and delivered on the same day, so you can get back to smiling without the wait.
Dentures typically have a lifespan of 7 to 10 years. Given that your mouth undergoes continual changes, periodic adjustments are essential to maintain a proper fit.

Leveraging modern technology and high-definition imaging, we will craft a set of custom dentures that closely mimic your natural teeth. These dentures are tailored to align seamlessly with your jaw and gum line, ensuring a natural look.
Dentures are a widely sought-after and reasonably priced restorative option. Consequently, many dental insurance plans typically cover a portion of denture costs.
