Implants vs. Traditional Dentures: What’s the Right Choice for You?

When it comes to replacing missing teeth, two of the most common solutions are traditional dentures and dental implants. While both options restore function and appearance, they are very different in terms of comfort, longevity, and overall patient satisfaction.
At Denturly, we specialise in full mouth dental implants in the UK, providing patients with a permanent teeth replacement solution that far outperforms removable dentures. If you’re looking for a more stable, natural-feeling, and long-term tooth replacement, here’s what you need to know—along with why more patients are switching to implants every day.
What Are Traditional Dentures?
Traditional dentures are removable prosthetic devices used to replace multiple missing teeth. They rest on the gums and are usually held in place by suction or dental adhesive. While they are cost-effective in the short term, many patients find them uncomfortable, bulky, and prone to movement—especially when eating or speaking. Dentures often require regular adjustments and replacements every 5 to 10 years.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically inserted into the jawbone, acting as artificial tooth roots. Once healed, these implants support a fixed set of prosthetic teeth that look, feel, and function like real ones. At Denturly, we use advanced 3D-guided implant surgery and offer fixed full arch dental implants (commonly called All-on-4 or All-on-6) to replace an entire upper or lower arch.
At Denturly, we use advanced 3D-guided surgery to deliver precise, predictable outcomes—and at just £12,995 for both jaws, we’re proud to be the UK’s most affordable provider of full mouth fixed implants.
Full Mouth Implants vs Dentures: What’s the Difference?
Let’s explore how these two treatments compare in key areas:
Stability and Everyday Function
Traditional dentures often shift or loosen while eating and speaking, sometimes requiring messy adhesives to stay in place. In contrast, full mouth implants are securely fixed to the jaw, offering unmatched stability that lets you enjoy meals and conversations without worry.
Comfort and Fit
Over time, dentures can become uncomfortable, rubbing against the gums or causing sore spots as your jawbone changes shape. Full mouth implants are custom-designed to fit your mouth, providing a secure, natural feel without the irritation.
Jawbone Preservation
Dentures rest on the gums and do nothing to prevent jawbone deterioration. Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preserving its structure and preventing the facial sagging commonly associated with tooth loss.
Maintenance and Longevity
Dentures must be removed daily for cleaning and typically last 5–10 years before needing replacement whereas, full mouth implants are brushed and cleaned like natural teeth and can last 20 years or more with good hygiene and regular check-ups.
Aesthetics and Confidence
Dentures can affect your ability to speak clearly or smile confidently, especially if they feel loose or unnatural. Implants restore a permanent, natural-looking smile, helping you feel confident in every moment.
