Full & Partial Implant Dentures in Naples, FL
If you’ve lost most or all of your teeth, implant dentures are a comfortable, long-lasting solution that feels more natural than traditional dentures.
At Tower Dental Arts, we offer full and partial implant dentures to give you back your smile without the discomfort or hassle of removable dentures.
What Are Implant Dentures?
Implant dentures are a specialized dental prosthetic that are anchored to dental implants placed in your jawbone. Unlike traditional dentures, implant dentures won’t shift or slip, and they can look as great as your natural teeth.
There are two types of implant dentures:
- Full Implant Dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth, either in the upper or lower jaw. Generally, 4 to 6 implant posts are strategically placed in the jawbone, and a full denture is attached to these implants. These are also called All-on-4, All-on-6, or All-on-X dental implants.
- Partial Implant Dentures: fill the gap when you’re missing several teeth but still have some natural teeth remaining. These dentures are also attached to implants while leaving your healthy natural teeth in place.
The Benefits of Implant Dentures
Implant dentures are a great alternative to traditional dentures because they:
- Won’t slip or move while you eat or speak.
- Are a permanent, long-lasting solution to missing teeth.
- Look and feel like natural teeth.
- Allow you to enjoy all your favorite foods
- Stimulate your jawbone to prevent bone loss

What is the difference between implant dentures and all-on-four dental implants?
With implant dentures, your dentist will choose the best locations to place implants to support your new dentures. Four to six implants or more are placed for the upper and the lower arches. All-on Four implant-supported dentures tend to have the implants placed near the front of the jaw where the bone may be thicker. The implants for All-on-Four dentures are often placed at an angle, while regular implant dentures are anchored on vertically-placed implants. The decision on which type of implant denture is right for you should be made with your dentist. Are you considering implant dentures? Call us at Tower Dental Arts for quality care!
What is the recovery process of implant dentures?
With the right at-home hygiene and care from your dentist, your recovery from getting implant dentures can be smooth. It is important to follow your instructions carefully. You may need to eat soft foods at first and utilize medications to help you in the first days. As the implants bond with your bone, it’s important to keep your mouth very clean and avoid smoking. Approximately four to six months after the implants are placed, you can receive your implant-supported dentures! Allow some time to adjust to your new teeth. Need a consultation on implant dentures?
