Locator or Bar Attachment Dentures
Dentures that snap securely onto implants for a stable fit, using locator or bar attachments.
These are dentures that attach to dental implants using locator buttons or a support bar. They snap firmly into place instead of resting on the gums.
A few implants are placed in the jaw, and the denture is fitted with matching attachments. It clicks onto the implants and can be removed for cleaning.
This gives you a far more secure fit than a standard denture, so you can eat and speak with confidence and no slipping.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about locator or bar attachment dentures.
People with full dentures who want a more secure fit, or anyone replacing a full arch who prefers a removable option.
Implant placement is done with numbing or sedation. After healing, the denture is fitted with its attachments for a snug, click in fit.
The full process spans a few months to allow implants to heal before the final denture is attached.
The attachments may need occasional replacement over time. Daily cleaning of both the denture and implants keeps everything healthy.
After implant placement, expect mild soreness for a few days. Fitting the denture itself is comfortable.
