Implant-Supported Dentures in Sheffield and Florence, AL

If you're tired of dealing with removable dentures that shift or feel uncomfortable, implant-supported dentures offer a stable, long-lasting solution. Unlike traditional dentures, which rely on adhesives, implant dentures are securely anchored to titanium posts in the jawbone, giving you the confidence to speak and eat without worrying about shifting. Not only do they restore your smile's function, but they also look natural and can be maintained with simple oral hygiene practices. At Shoals Oral & Facial Surgery in Sheffield and Florence, AL, our team is committed to helping you achieve a comfortable, confident smile with implant-supported dentures. Take the first step toward a more comfortable, confident smile by scheduling your consultation today.

Before starting, our team will conduct a thorough examination to assess the health of your gums and jawbone. We may use digital imaging to assess the condition of your gums and jawbone, helping us plan the precise placement of your implant-supported dentures. If necessary, we may recommend bone or gum grafting to ensure a strong foundation for the implants. Once the grafts have healed, we can schedule your implant surgery. During the procedure, we will use local anesthesia to keep you comfortable, with sedation options available for longer procedures or if you experience dental anxiety. Your oral surgeon will make small incisions in your gums to securely place the titanium posts in the jawbone. After the posts are covered with stitches, a temporary denture will be provided while the implants heal, which typically takes 4 – 6 months. Once the healing process is complete, we'll attach your custom implant-supported dentures, completing your new smile.

Shoals Oral & Facial Surgery is pleased to offer implant-supported dentures as a reliable solution for patients seeking a secure and natural-looking dental restoration. The key benefits of this treatment include:

  • Durability, enhanced self-confidence, and a natural-looking restoration
  • Comfortable fit with reduced risk of discomfort
  • Improved ability to eat a variety of foods
  • Stable positioning while speaking or chewing
  • Prevention of bone loss often associated with traditional dentures

Compared to traditional (removable) dentures, dentures supported by implants offer greater stability and structure for your mouth, allowing you to enjoy food and conversation with maximum confidence. While prices can vary based on each patient's needs, implant-supported dentures can also be more cost-effective by reducing the need for adjustments and replacements. Many insurance plans offer coverage for implant dentures, and our team at Shoals Oral & Facial Surgery is here to help you navigate your options and find the best financial solution to make this life-changing treatment more accessible.

Dr. Frederick is wonderful, caring, patient and does amazing work. I am terrified of dental work and he puts me completely at ease. I now have 5 dental implants and am very happy with the results. I highly recommend him.

Can implant-supported dentures be removed?

Yes, implant-supported dentures come in both removable and fixed options. Fixed dentures are often preferred because they feel more like natural teeth and offer greater stability during eating and speaking. Whether you choose removable or permanent, these dentures are designed for comfort and function, and they only require routine brushing and flossing to stay in great shape.

Will getting implant-supported dentures hurt?

Most patients find the procedure surprisingly manageable. It’s performed using local anesthesia to keep you comfortable, and any soreness afterward is typically mild. Over-the-counter pain relievers are usually all that’s needed during the short recovery period.

What’s the best way to care for implant-supported dentures?

Keeping your implant-supported dentures clean is key to long-term success. Be sure to brush and floss daily, especially around the implant posts, and visit your dentist regularly for professional cleanings and checkups. With proper care, your new smile can look and feel great for years to come.
