Implant-Supported Dentures Video in Park Ridge, IL

Watch how Dr. Thanasi Loukas uses dental implants to securely anchor a lower denture in place, eliminating the need for messy adhesives and stopping denture slippage for good.

Video Transcript

Many denture wearers struggle with loose dentures that move while eating, speaking, or laughing.

At Loukas Dentistry of Park Ridge, Dr. Thanasi Loukas offers a better solution: implant-supported dentures.

Watch as dental implants placed in the jaw securely hold the denture in place using precision locator attachments.

The denture snaps firmly onto the implants. No adhesives, no slipping, no worries.

Patients can enjoy the foods they love again, speak with confidence, and smile without hesitation.

The entire treatment, from implant placement to final restoration, is completed in one office.

We also offer fixed, permanent locator attachments that do not come out, a cost-effective alternative to All-on-4.

I also fix implants directly to a patient’s existing dentures when appropriate, so you may not need a brand-new denture to benefit from implant support.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many implants are needed for a secure denture?

Typically, a lower denture requires two to four dental implants for secure retention, while an upper denture usually requires four to six implants due to differences in bone density.

Can I remove an implant-supported denture?

Yes. The locator attachments shown in the video allow you to “snap” the denture in and out. This makes it easy to remove the denture for daily cleaning while providing extreme stability when worn.

Is this the same as “All-on-4”?

No. While both use implants, a snap-in overdenture is removable by the patient. An “All-on-4” or fixed full-arch bridge is permanently screwed into the implants and can only be removed by a dentist. Snap-in dentures are often a more cost-effective alternative.

Can implants be added to my current dentures instead of making a new one?

n

In many cases, yes. Dr. Loukas can fix locator attachments directly to your existing denture, allowing it to snap onto implants without requiring a brand-new denture.
