Locator or bar attachment dentures are implant-supported dentures that snap securely into place for stability. They improve chewing, comfort, and speech, while still being removable for easy cleaning—ideal for those seeking better-fitting dentures.
We place two or more implants in the jaw and secure a denture using locator or bar attachments. It snaps into place for improved stability, while remaining removable for cleaning—blending the benefits of fixed and removable options.
We help you regain stability and comfort with dentures that snap into implants. These stay secure while chewing and speaking, but can be removed for cleaning—combining convenience, support, and renewed confidence in daily life.
Locator or Bar Attachment Dentures
Stable, removable dentures for comfort and function.
Patients with loose-fitting dentures may benefit from locator or bar attachment dentures. Ideal for those wanting a more stable, implant-supported alternative to traditional dentures—while still being able to remove them for easy cleaning.
This treatment involves placing 2–4 implants and fitting a denture that clicks securely into place. Patients typically experience a smoother adjustment than with traditional dentures and enjoy enhanced chewing, speech, and stability in daily life.
Locator or bar attachment denture treatment requires several visits over 2–3 months. Implant placement takes 1–2 hours. After healing, attachments are fitted. Final denture delivery and adjustments ensure comfort, stability, and long-term satisfaction with minimal daily maintenance.
These dentures require cleaning and occasional maintenance of the attachments. Though more stable than traditional dentures, daily hygiene and routine checkups are crucial. You’ll still remove them at night and clean around the implant sites carefully.
Expect some soreness when first using your new denture. Practice inserting and removing it, clean it daily, and follow our guidance on care. You’ll adjust quickly, and we’ll check fit and attachments during routine visits.
