What Are Overdentures?

This is where we use a series of 4-6 dental implants placed in strategic positions in your jaw which enable us to fix removable dentures snugly into place using either ‘press-stud’ type attachments or a metal bar. Overdentures become strong & stable and are a very comfortable alternative to traditional removable dentures.

We use dental implants to simply and securely fasten your dentures in place. This treatment is known as an ‘overdenture’ and is intended for those patients seeking an affordable alternative to a full implant rehabilitation.

Are Overdentures Suitable For Me?

Are your dentures loose or uncomfortable?
Do you refrain from eating the foods you love, such as apples, sandwiches, steak dinners?
Do you rely on dentures fixatives to hold dentures in place?
Are you self-conscious about eating in front of others?
Have your dentures ‘slipped out’ on occasion?
Do you avoid social situations?
Have you noticed a change in your facial features as you being to lose bone?
Do you find that your speech is affected by wearing dentures?
Do you long for fixed teeth again?

If you have answered ‘Yes’ to three or more of these questions, then you are suitable for overdentures.

I couldn’t recommend Ascent highly enough, especially for patients who are nervous about going to the dentist. Every member of staff I have interacted with has been friendly, professional and made me feel totally at ease, even though I was very anxious about visiting the dentist. I requested a new patient consultation and was seen by my dentist Mandeep and dental nurse Alex later that same week. Mandeep was so patient and thorough and explained the treatment I required clearly every step of the way and Alex was lovely and so reassuring. Again, appointments for the treatment were available straight away and Mandeep and dental nurse Hollie were so calming and professional. I was so happy with the service throughout this initial consultation and treatment that I have joined Ascent as a member and will continue to come for my routine check-ups and I no longer feel frightened about the prospect of a dentist visit!

If you want to be looked after and have great teeth then this is the place to go! There is nothing I can fault about this company. They have always been so friendly, professional, always had appointment times, kept in touch to confirm appointments and the place is always spotless and smells amazing! Cleanliness is 10/10 too. They go the extra mile, sending little cards to wish you well with your new braces. I had one to say we hope your getting on with your new brace and another to say we hope you are loving your new smile! I am extremely happy with my results and I would high recommend this dentist to anyone!

Before & After

4 Implants and a Removable Overdenture

This patient needed two unrepairable lower teeth removing which meant his denture would become extremely loose. He was interested in a more permanent option so we provided four implants and a removable lower overdenture alongside an upper removable denture.
The final result was a stable lower set of teeth and beautiful looking upper teeth.

Dental Implants & Overdentures

This patient had extensive gum disease so this patients teeth were removed. Temporary dentures were provided but they were not secure enough for the patient to eat so we placed Dental Implants in the upper and lower jaws. We secure Overdentures to the dental implants which provides more stability and security for the new teeth.

Having recently moved into the area we visited Ascent. I have been blown away by the service I received. I had a problematic tooth & was seen by a specialist who did a root canal & the results are unbelievable! Today was my 2nd visit to the hygienist who was very pleased with improvements to my gums following her recommended regime previously. The service from receptionists, dentist, specialist & Tabya my hygienist have me faultless. This practice is first class & so glad we moved there.

I was treated by Ketul for teeth straightening and the lovely Rachel. I am absolutely delighted with the results, and lots of people have commented on my new smile. The professionalism and care of every member of staff is excellent. I have recommended them to several people, and I can honestly say that they are one of the best businesses I have ever used.

Helen Horne

Ascent Dental Care has professional and friendly staff who always provide excellent treatment. I had dental implants last year and am very pleased with the outcome. Before starting and throughout the procedure the staff explained exactly what was happening and what was involved. This was very important to me.

Colin Jones

I broke off a very old crown but Ascent gave me an appointment really quickly. Thorough examination and x-ray shows it can’t be replaced but explained why so, and given various options to consider. Another appointment booked in next week to progress. Very satisfied with the overall patient care provided.

I had an emergency appointment today and Mandeep and Ellie were great at not only explaining what was happening with my tooth extraction but also keeping me calm as I was very nervous. The extraction its self was quick and in no way uncomfortable. I am very greatful to them both for putting me at ease and the being professional throughout the appointment

Dannii

I cannot recommend highly enough. I am a bit of a nervous/embarrassed patient and I must say the whole team have been excellent, from the person I first contacted to the receptionists and the dental team themselves. I’m very excited to get my ‘new teeth’ and have already been so impressed that I have moved my children here too.

Jenny Townend

Couldn’t recommend highly enough from the lovely reception staff to the professional and calming dentist who did my root canal treatment today. I was originally referred as I was a very nervous patient and wanted sedation. But after meeting the dentist he assured me I would cope under local anaesthetic which I did and the whole procedure was totally painless. Thank you.

I have been with this dentist for the last 40yrs, recently it has changed hands and booking appointments has been difficult at times, but the care is great. Today I had a wisdom tooth removed. The proceedure was fine and completely painless, Simon is great as the consulting surgeon for more complex surgery, I recommend him 100%
