Implant DenturesLa Verne, CA
Implant dentures are entire upper or lower dentures supported by dental implants. The implants fuse with your jawbone and become a solid anchor for attaching a denture. Elevated Dentistry in La Verne, CA has a record of safe, successful treatment with dental implant-supported dentures to help you speak, eat, and smile with confidence. From snap-on dentures to Smile in a Day procedures, our doctors can help you rebuild your smile.
How Are Implant Dentures Different from Regular Dentures?
A regular complete denture is a removable oral appliance that replaces all your missing teeth. The lower denture rests on your gums, and suction keeps an upper denture in place. Instead of resting on your gums, implant dentures attach to two to six dental implants anchored in your jawbone. A removable dental implant-supported denture, also called snap-on dentures, can snap or clip onto dental implants for support while they are worn. These dentures are taken out and soaked while you sleep, just like traditional dentures. A fixed implant denture, on the other hand, screws onto the dental implants without being removable. These dental implant-supported dentures are basically permanent teeth at that point, brushed and flossed just like your original smile. They can only be removed by a dental health professional during a checkup.
Did You Know?
Your improved quality of life will help you smile more often.
Local Anesthesia
For many patients, especially those whose surgical needs are more modest in scope, local anesthesia is sufficient for a comfortable experience.
Care that won’t break the bank
We’re committed to making care affordable and accessible. Our team is here to help you finance your same-day crown in a way that fits your lifestyle and budget.

Some patients prefer to be “put under” for their procedure, something we can provide through IV sedation. This is an especially good option for those whose surgery will be more time-intensive.
The Benefits of Implant-Retained Dentures
Enjoyable Eating
Your chewing-muscle control will improve, making it easier to eat with dentures and enjoy your favorite meals again.
Jawbone Preservation
Implants stimulate bone and keep it intact to prevent premature facial sagging.
Natural Speech
Stable dentures help you pronounce words easily and speak naturally—no more clicking or popping noises.
Ease of Maintenance
Care for them daily like natural teeth. You will not need adhesives to keep your denture in place.
The Implant-Retained Dentures Treatment Process
Consultation
The implant denture process begins with a consultation with us at In Motion Dentists. We will listen to your concerns about wearing dentures and your preferences for implant dentures.
Digital Impressions
Then, we will take x-rays, photos, molds, and digital scans of your mouth. The information will help us evaluate your teeth, gums, and bone structure. Next, we will create a treatment plan and explain what you can expect.
The surgery
Dental implant surgery is an outpatient procedure. You will have a safe, comfortable surgery and recovery. We will make small incisions through your gums and jawbone using digital technology for precise dental implant placement.
Restored Smile
After surgery, you can wear a temporary denture for three to four months while your jawbone and dental implants fuse. Then, we will fit you for beautiful, comfortable replacement teeth.
Why Get a Dental Crown or Cap?
There are a number of reasons why you might need one of these restorative dentistry options. Crowns can be logical remedies for you if you have any of the following issues:
- Weak, cracked, or decaying teeth
- Teeth that have become severely worn down through everyday use
- Teeth that need large fillings and require some extra support
- Teeth that are oddly shaped or severely discolored
- Teeth that have been treated with a root canal
