At Ham Lake Dental, we provide advanced, customized implant denture options that feel secure, look natural, and improve your quality of life.
Located in Ham Lake, MN, our practice offers personalized restorative care designed to meet your smile goals with long-term stability.
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures (also called implant-retained dentures) are prosthetic teeth anchored by dental implants placed in the jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums, these dentures are secured by as few as two to four implants per arch, resulting in:
- No slipping or clicking
- Improved chewing power and speech
- Better bone preservation and jaw health
- Greater comfort and confidence
Depending on your needs, we offer both removable and fixed (non-removable) options, including All-on-4 dental implants for full-arch restorations.
Are Implant Dentures Right for You?
You may be a candidate for implant-supported dentures if you:
- Wear full or partial traditional dentures
- Have multiple missing or failing teeth
- Want a more stable, comfortable denture option
- Have adequate jawbone or are open to bone grafting
Not sure if you're eligible? Dr. Alex Shnaydruk will evaluate your oral health, bone density, and lifestyle goals during your consultation.

The Treatment Process
- Consultation & 3D Imaging:
We assess your bone health and discuss your goals. Digital scans help us plan implant placement precisely. - Implant Placement:
Titanium posts are surgically placed in the jawbone. Healing time varies based on your needs. - Temporary Denture (if needed):
You’ll wear a temporary denture while your implants heal. - Final Denture Placement:
Once healed, your custom denture is attached to the implants for a natural, secure fit.
We also offer All-on-4 as a full-arch restoration solution using four implants per jaw.

FAQs About Implant-Supported Dentures
Are implant dentures permanent?
They can be either permanent (fixed) or removable. Fixed implant dentures stay in place and are only removed by your dentist, while removable options snap in and out for cleaning.
How many implants will I need?
Most full-arch dentures require 2 to 4 implants per jaw. We offer All-on-4 and customized plans depending on your bone quality and goals.
What’s the cost of implant-supported dentures?
Costs vary based on your treatment plan, number of implants, and materials used. We provide detailed estimates and financing options at your consultation.
Do implant dentures hurt?
Implant placement is a surgical procedure, but we offer sedation options to keep you comfortable. Most patients report minimal discomfort during healing.
How long do implant dentures last?
With proper care, implants can last decades. The denture portion may need replacing after 10–15 years.
