If Your Lower Denture Moves, You're Not Alone
The lower jaw is where most denture wearers struggle the most. There's less surface area for a denture to grip, no suction like the upper palate, and your tongue constantly pushes against it. The result? A denture that rocks, lifts, and slides — no matter how much adhesive you use.
You stop eating the foods you love. You talk differently. You hold your jaw a certain way just to keep things in place. Over time, bone loss makes the fit even worse, and you end up in a cycle of relines, adjustments, and frustration.
Lower jaw implants solve this permanently. Whether it's a full set of fixed teeth or an implant-retained snap-on denture, implants give your lower arch the anchor it's been missing.
The Lower Jaw Is Actually Ideal for Implants
Dense, Strong Bone
Unlike the upper jaw, the lower jaw tends to have denser bone — which is actually great news for implants. That density means implants integrate quickly and hold firmly, making the lower arch one of the most predictable areas for implant treatment.
The Biggest Quality-of-Life Jump
Patients who go from a loose lower denture to implant-supported teeth consistently describe it as life-changing. It's often the single biggest improvement someone can make to their daily comfort and confidence.
Flexible Options
Depending on your bone, budget, and goals, lower jaw implants range from a full fixed bridge on four implants to a simple two-implant snap-on that dramatically stabilizes your existing denture. There's a solution for almost every situation.
From Fixed Teeth to Snap-On Stability — We'll Find What Fits
The right approach depends on you — your bone structure, your goals, and your budget. During your free consultation, Tom and Dr. Alex will evaluate your lower jaw using 3D scans and walk you through every option in plain English.
- All-on-4 lower arch — four implants supporting a full set of fixed teeth
- Full arch on 4–6 implants — permanent teeth you never remove
- Snap-on overdenture (2 implants) — your denture clips onto implants for a secure fit
- Snap-on overdenture (4 implants) — maximum stability with a removable option
- Same day options — implants and teeth placed in one visit
Your Lower Jaw Case — Start to Finish, Right Here
At Renew, your surgeon, your denturist, and your lab all work together in the same building. That means no referrals, no miscommunication between offices, and no waiting weeks for an outside lab to send your teeth back. Dr. Alex places the implants, Tom designs and fits the prosthetic, and our onsite lab fabricates everything on site.
It's the reason we can offer same day results for most lower jaw cases — and the reason our patients don't have to bounce around town to get the care they need.

Lower Jaw Implant Questions — Answered
It depends on the approach. A full fixed bridge typically requires four implants (All-on-4), while a snap-on overdenture can work with as few as two. Tom and Dr. Alex will recommend the best option based on your bone and your goals during your free consultation.
In most cases, yes. The lower jaw's dense bone is ideal for immediate loading, which means implants and teeth are often placed in the same visit. We'll confirm what's possible for your case during your consultation. Learn about same day implants.
Often, yes. The All-on-4 technique uses angled implants to maximize existing bone, and the lower jaw tends to retain bone better than the upper. Many patients who were turned away elsewhere are excellent candidates here. The best way to find out is a free consultation with our team.
Fixed teeth are permanently attached to implants — you brush them like natural teeth and never remove them. Snap-on dentures clip onto implants for stability but can be removed for cleaning. Both are massive upgrades from a traditional lower denture. We'll help you decide which is right for you.
