Implant-Supported Dentures in Rancho Santa Margarita, CA
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures are an advanced restoration that combines the best features of dentures and dental implants. Your Rancho Santa Margarita dentist, Dr. Lari, strategically places several dental implants in your jaw to securely anchor your dentures, eliminating the common problems of slipping and shifting associated with traditional dentures.

What to Expect During the Implant Overdenture Process
The process of getting implant-supported dentures typically involves several stages:
- Initial Evaluation: Dr. Lari will conduct a thorough examination, including X-rays and possibly 3D imaging, to assess your bone density and determine if you are a candidate for implants.
- Implant Placement: The dental implants are surgically placed into the jawbone. The number of implants will vary depending on the type of denture and individual needs.
- Healing Period (Osseointegration): The implants are allowed to heal and fuse with the jawbone (osseointegration). This process can take several months.
- Abutment Placement: Once osseointegration is complete, abutments (connector pieces) are attached to the implants.
- Denture Fabrication and Placement: Custom-made dentures are fabricated to fit securely onto the abutments.
Is Implant-Supported Dentures Right for You?
You may be a good candidate if you:
- Are missing most or all teeth in the upper or lower arch.
- Struggle with loose, uncomfortable dentures.
- Have sufficient jawbone for implant placement (or are willing to undergo bone grafting).
- Want a more secure, natural-feeling solution than traditional dentures.
During your consultation at our Rancho Santa Margarita office, Dr. Lari will evaluate your oral health and discuss whether implant-supported dentures are the best solution for your specific situation.
