The appeal of a steadier denture can be overshadowed by the thought of surgery. If you live in The Maples and feel that way, start by learning what the stage involves.
Let's find a time
Hesitating over surgery is completely understandable, especially if you already had a difficult time losing your teeth. Implants are what make a snap-in denture possible, so it makes sense to understand that step clearly before thinking about anything else.
Implants are placed in the jaw according to a plan based on imaging and clinical assessment, then given time to integrate. Residents of The Maples can use a first appointment at our McPhillips Street clinic to share their worries and learn whether implants are even appropriate, without having to decide anything that day.
Explore snap-in dentures
Assessment and planning happen ahead of placement, leaving room for questions to be answered.
Three-dimensional imaging and your restorative goals help decide where each implant is meant to go.
Your denture is connected only after the implants have had the time your plan allows.
Fear of the unknown can be harder than the facts. These are the broad elements of the implant phase, and your own surgical and healing plan fills in the details.
Preparation centres on making sure implant treatment is appropriate and thoroughly planned for you.
Once placed, your implants need time to integrate before they are asked to hold a denture.
We cannot tell you exactly how surgery will feel for you, but you can ask us what comfort options apply to your plan at your assessment.
Each stage of treatment is separate, which gives you natural points to pause and ask questions. The exact timeline and implant count depend on your plan.
Request your visitTell us what worries you most, then we review your health history and look at your mouth, your bone and your current denture.
Using imaging findings, we go through where implants would be placed, how the attachments would work and what healing would involve.
Surgery follows the agreed plan. The implants then integrate over a healing period, with advice from us about what to do in the meantime.
With the surgical work behind you, records are taken for a new or adapted appliance. At the last stage we connect it, adjust its retention and show you how to take it out.
A written list can help when nerves make it hard to remember what you wanted to ask. Nothing is too small to mention, and a question you find embarrassing is probably one we have heard before.
Telling the clinic when you book that you feel anxious about surgery gives us a chance to take that into account.
Questions can come before you ever sit in the chair.
You do not have to be brave for us. It is more useful to know you are frightened, so that explanations and appointments can take your concerns into account from the outset.
A hard dental memory is worth describing, because it tells us what may make you uneasy now.
Feel free to ask what comfort options may be available for your procedure, and whether they would suit you.
Before we begin any treatment, settle on how you will let us know you would like us to stop.
After the surgical stage
Your care does not stop when an implant is in place. Healing is followed by the denture stage, then by a daily routine and examinations for as long as you wear it.
Follow the guidance we give you, and call the clinic if you have concerns or something does not seem right.
Adjustment appointments focus on retention and pressure points, so speak up about any area that feels sore.
Your implants, attachments, gums and bite are monitored at examinations, and worn inserts may need replacing along the way.
Worried about something while healing? Please phone the clinic directly.

Yes. The attachments that create the snap are connected to dental implants, so a denture cannot work this way without them. A conventional denture does not involve implants and is worth asking about.
Healing time is set by your clinical plan and can differ from one patient to the next. We can talk about what to expect for you once your assessment and imaging are complete.
This depends on your plan, so ask during your planning appointment. Whether your existing denture can be adapted later is a related question that we can also explore with you.
Yes. An assessment gathers information and does not commit you to surgery, so take the time you need to consider what you have heard.
