Immplant-Supported Dentures
The Most Secure, Natural-Feeling Denture Solution Available
For patients who want the very best in stability, comfort, and function, implant-supported dentures are the gold standard. At Berlanga Dentures, our denturists at Parkland Denture Center in Tacoma and Meridian Denture Center in Puyallup craft beautiful, handmade implant dentures that anchor securely to dental implants — delivering a fit that never slips, shifts, or loosens.
Implant dentures combine the personalized craftsmanship Berlanga Dentures is known for with the superior stability that dental implants provide, giving you a smile that looks, feels, and functions as close to your natural teeth as possible.
What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Implant-supported dentures use small, medical-grade titanium posts — placed into your jawbone by a dental surgeon — as a secure foundation for your custom denture. Once the implants have fully integrated with your bone, your Berlanga denturist attaches your handcrafted denture directly to the implants.
The result is a denture that stays firmly in place as you eat, speak, laugh, and go about your life — with none of the movement, floating, or adhesive dependence that can come with traditional dentures over time.
Benefits of Implant Dentures
Unmatched Stability: Implant dentures are anchored directly to your jawbone, completely eliminating the slipping and floating many denture wearers experience. You can eat the foods you love, laugh freely, and speak with total confidence.
Bone Preservation: When natural teeth are lost, the jawbone begins to recede because it no longer receives stimulation. Dental implants mimic natural tooth roots, stimulating the bone and helping prevent this recession — preserving your facial structure and a more youthful appearance.
Natural Look and Feel: Implant-supported dentures function just like natural teeth. With no adhesives required and no movement to manage, most patients quickly forget they're wearing dentures at all.
Long-Term Value: Because implant dentures are more stable and place less stress on the surrounding tissue, they tend to last longer than traditional dentures and require fewer adjustments over time — making them an excellent long-term investment.
Why Choose a Denturist for Implant Dentures?
When it comes to implant-supported dentures, where you go matters, not just for quality, but for cost. Many dentists now charge significant fees for implant denture services because they position themselves as a one-stop shop, bundling the surgical placement of the implants with the denture fitting under one roof. That convenience often comes with a much higher price tag, driven by the broader overhead of running a full-service dental practice that also handles fillings, root canals, and complex oral surgery.
Denturists take a different, and more specialized, approach. At Berlanga Dentures, our focus is exclusively on dentures. We partner with trusted local dental surgeons for the surgical placement of your titanium implant posts, and then we handle everything from there: the design, fabrication, and fitting of your custom implant denture. Because we specialize entirely in prosthetics, we can offer a more cost-effective process without compromising on quality.
Why Denturist Implant Dentures Cost Less
Our On-Site Lab Keeps Costs Down: Every implant denture at Berlanga Dentures is fabricated by hand in our own on-site lab. We control our material costs directly and never pay the fees of an outside dental lab, a savings we pass along to you.
Specialized, Not Generalized: Because we focus exclusively on denture prosthetics rather than offering a full range of dental services, our overhead is lower and our process is more efficient. You're paying for denture expertise — and nothing else.
A Coordinated, Cost-Effective Team Approach: Our model pairs the right professional with the right role: a dental surgeon handles the placement of your implants, and our denturists handle the design and fitting of your denture. This specialization produces better results at a lower cost than a generalist trying to do everything under one roof.
If you've received an implant denture quote from a dentist and found it out of reach, we encourage you to call us for a free consultation. The difference in cost may surprise you.
Implant Dentures Q&A
-
Most clients in good general health with adequate jawbone density are candidates for dental implants. During your consultation, we'll evaluate your situation and discuss whether implant dentures are the right choice for you. Many affordable options are available.
-
Yes. The implant posts are placed by a dental surgeon in a separate procedure. Once your implants have healed and integrated with the bone, your Berlanga denturist takes over to craft and fit your custom denture.
-
Depending on the system used, your denture may be either snap-on (removable) or permanently fixed. We'll walk you through both options and help you find what best suits your needs and lifestyle.
-
Care depends on whether your dentures are removable or fixed, but in general, regular cleaning, periodic professional checkups, and proper oral hygiene around the implant sites are essential for long-term success.
