Fixed Denture Conversion

While many patients are happy with a removable, implant-supported denture, some realize they may prefer the comfort, permanence, and the natural feel and easy care of fixed implant dentures. If you have snap in dentures or overdentures, you may have considered getting permanent, fixed dentures but decided it was too expensive, time-consuming, or invasive.

There is now an affordable, less invasive procedure to convert dentures to fixed, full arch dental implants that changes how patients can move from a removable denture to a fixed arch. This fixed denture conversion is painless, affordable, and does not require lengthy healing times.

Upgrade Your Dentures to Fixed Implant Dentures

Upgrading to fixed, full arch dental implants used to be a complex, invasive procedure. The implants used to retain snap in dentures had to be replaced with new implants, followed by a lengthy recovery before the permanent, fixed implant dentures could be attached. Fortunately, Herald Square Dental can now offer a simple solution: Zest Dental Solutions’ Locator Fixed™ dental conversion system.

Dr. Shirzadnia is a Zest Certified Master in using their unique Locator Fixed dental conversion system to transform snap in dentures to fixed implant dentures using their unique conversion abutments.
