Implant-Supported Dentures in New Orleans
If your dentures slip, click, or leave you reaching for adhesive, there's a better way. At Gleem Dental, implant-supported dentures snap securely onto a few precisely placed implants — so you can eat, speak, and smile with confidence again. Dr. Caylin Greene designs each solution to feel stable and natural in our Lakeview studio.
A denture that snaps
securely into place.
Rather than resting on your gums, an implant-supported denture attaches to a few dental implants — usually two to four per arch. The result is a full set of teeth that stays firmly in place, with no slipping and no adhesive.
Anchored, Not Just Resting
A small number of implants are placed in your jaw to act as sturdy anchors. Your denture then connects to them — either clicking on with snap-in attachments you can remove for cleaning, or fixed in place so only your dentist removes it. Both styles restore a stable, confident bite.
A Great Fit If You:
- Are tired of dentures that slip or click
- Want to stop relying on denture adhesives
- Are missing most or all teeth in an arch
Stability That Protects Your Bone
Because the implants transmit chewing forces into your jaw, they stimulate the bone the way natural roots once did. That helps prevent the ongoing bone loss and sunken facial appearance that conventional dentures simply can't stop — while also giving you far more chewing power.
The Lasting Benefits:
- Preserves jawbone and facial structure
- No slipping, adhesives, or sore spots
- Eat the foods you love with confidence
Every treatment plan is customized to your anatomy, health, and goals — never a one-size-fits-all approach.
Implant-Supported vs.
Conventional Dentures.
Both replace a full arch of teeth, but they fit and function very differently. Here's how implant-supported dentures compare to traditional removable dentures.
Related Treatments:
| Feature | Implant-Supported | Conventional Denture |
|---|---|---|
| Retention & stability | Snaps or fixes onto implants — stays put | Rests on gums; can rock and slip |
| Bone preservation | Implants stimulate and preserve jawbone | Bone continues to shrink over time |
| Adhesives | None needed — held by implants | Often requires messy denture paste |
| Chewing power | Bite through most foods with confidence | Limited — sticky and hard foods are tricky |
| Removability | Snap-in styles remove; fixed styles stay in | Fully removable every day |
Full-arch care with an artist's touch.
A stable, beautiful denture is equal parts surgical precision and cosmetic artistry. At Gleem, you get both.
Digitally Planned Implants.
Dr. Greene uses 3D imaging to position each implant for maximum stability, so your denture clicks into place securely and distributes your bite evenly.
A Denture That Looks Real.
Your teeth are shaped, shaded, and arranged to flatter your face — a natural, youthful smile rather than an obvious 'set of dentures.'
A Calm, Welcoming Experience.
From sedation options to our spa-like Lakeview studio, every step of your implant journey is designed to feel relaxed, gentle, and unhurried.

The path to a stable smile.
Getting implant-supported dentures is a staged process that unfolds over a few months — but each step is straightforward, and we guide you through all of it.
Consultation
Dr. Greene evaluates your gums, remaining teeth, and jawbone with a thorough exam and 3D imaging, then designs a plan for how many implants your denture will need.
Implant Placement
Two to four titanium implants are placed into each arch in a precise, minimally invasive procedure. These posts become the anchors that hold your denture.
Healing
Over the next few months, the implants fuse with your bone through osseointegration, creating a rock-solid foundation. A temporary denture can be worn meanwhile.
Attachment
Once healed, we connect your custom denture to the implants — snapping it into place or fixing it permanently — for a stable, confident, adhesive-free smile.
