Over Dentures


Over-dentures mean they are removable dentures built-over anchors of some sort. The anchors can be two or more teeth. The anchors can be two or more implants. The benefit of an over-denture is that it has more support and stability from the benefit of the anchors. The greater number of anchors (teeth or implants), the more stable and retentive the removable over-denture becomes. Even one tooth anchor, that is a little loose, will provide better stability for an over-denture than what can be accomplished with a conventional complete denture. That is true, and teeth should be retained, whenever possible, to anchor a prosthesis.
