Overdentures in Cuttack

A Modern, Secure Alternative to Traditional Dentures – Available at Tooth Junction

Are loose dentures affecting your confidence, speech, or ability to chew your favorite foods? At Tooth Junction, Mahanadi Vihar, Cuttack, we offer Overdentures — a modern solution that combines the stability of dental implants with the convenience of removable dentures.

Whether you’ve worn dentures for years or are looking for a more reliable replacement option, implant-supported overdentures can help you regain comfort, control, and confidence.

What Are Overdentures?

Overdentures are removable dental prostheses that fit securely over a few remaining natural teeth or dental implants. Unlike traditional dentures, which may shift or loosen over time, overdentures snap or clip onto anchors, offering improved stability and support.

They can be used for:

  • Completely edentulous patients (no teeth)

  • Patients with only a few healthy teeth left

  • Long-term denture wearers who want better stability

How Do Overdentures Work?

  • Mini or full-sized dental implants, OR

  • Preserved natural tooth roots that are treated and used as anchor points.

The denture is then custom-made to attach to these anchor points using special clips or attachments. This ensures a snug fit with better function, without the use of messy adhesives.

Benefits of Overdentures

  • Superior Stability – No slipping while talking or eating

  • Preserves Jawbone – Stimulates bone through implant support

  • Improved Chewing Efficiency – Eat a wider variety of foods

  • More Comfortable Fit – Reduced irritation and pressure

  • Removable for Easy Cleaning – Offers hygiene and convenience

  • Enhanced Confidence – Smile and speak freely

FAQs

What is the difference between traditional dentures and overdentures?
Traditional dentures rest on the gums and can shift during talking or eating. Overdentures, on the other hand, are secured to implants or natural roots, offering greater stability and comfort.
Are overdentures removable?
Yes. Overdentures are designed to be removable, making them easy to clean and maintain while still offering the firmness and function of fixed teeth during use.
How many implants are needed for overdentures?
Typically, 2 to 4 implants are used per arch (upper or lower), depending on bone health and the type of denture. Your dentist will recommend the best option during your consultation.
Are overdentures painful to get?
Not at all. Implant placement is done under local anesthesia, and most patients experience only mild soreness afterward. The procedure is safe and well-tolerated.
Can I eat all types of food with overdentures?
Yes. Overdentures improve chewing strength and stability, allowing you to enjoy most foods, including moderately hard and chewy items — which may be difficult with traditional dentures.
How do I care for my overdentures?
Overdentures should be removed and cleaned daily using a denture brush and mild cleaner. Also, clean around the implant attachments in your mouth to prevent infection and plaque buildup.
How long do overdentures last?
With proper care, overdentures can last 8–15 years or more, while the supporting implants can last a lifetime. Periodic adjustments or replacement of attachments may be needed.
