Fixed Implant Dentures in Roanoke, VA
Tired of a denture that moves, rubs, or needs adhesive? Fixed implant dentures in Roanoke give you a full arch of teeth that is secured to dental implants and stays in your mouth all day and night. You brush them in place, eat with confidence, and never have to soak them in a cup again.

What Is a Fixed Implant Denture?
A fixed implant denture, sometimes called a hybrid denture, is a complete arch of replacement teeth and gums that attaches to dental implants with small screws. Unlike a regular denture, it does not rest on your gums or rely on suction. Only your dentist can take it off, usually during maintenance visits.
Why Patients Choose Fixed Implant Dentures
- Teeth that stay put while you eat, talk, and laugh
- An open palate on the upper arch, so food tastes and feels normal
- Stronger biting force than a traditional denture
- No adhesives, overnight soaking, or sore spots from rubbing
- Support for the jawbone where implants are placed
Fixed Implant Dentures vs. Removable Dentures
There are three main ways to replace a full arch. Each has a place, and the right one depends on your bone, budget, and how you want your teeth to feel.
| Fixed implant denture | Snap-in implant denture | Conventional denture | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Held in by | Screws into implants | Clips onto implants | Suction and adhesive |
| Taken out at home | No | Yes, daily | Yes, daily |
| Chewing strength | Highest | Good | Lowest |
| Typical cost per arch | $15,000 - $30,000 | $5,000 - $15,000 or more | $1,000 - $3,000 |
If you would rather have teeth you can remove, learn about snap-in implant dentures.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Fixed Implant Dentures?
Fixed implant dentures suit adults who are missing all or nearly all of the teeth in an arch, or whose remaining teeth cannot be saved. Good candidates are healthy enough for implant surgery and willing to keep up with daily cleaning and regular checkups. Even if you have worn a denture for years and lost some bone, angled implants or a small graft may still make a fixed option possible.
What Are Fixed Implant Dentures Made Of?
The teeth and gum portion are commonly made from acrylic over a strong framework or from zirconia, a tough ceramic. Acrylic is lighter on the budget and easier to repair, while zirconia resists wear and staining. Dr. Felo explains which suits your bite and your goals.
Fixed Implant Denture Cost in Roanoke
A fixed implant denture for one arch typically runs about $15,000 to $30,000 in Virginia, including the implants, the attachment parts, and the final teeth. The number of implants, any extractions or bone grafting, and your choice of material move the price up or down. You will know your fee before treatment starts.
We accept and file most private dental insurance, including Anthem Blue Cross, Guardian, Ameritas, and Principal, which may help with part of the cost. For the balance, ask about CareCredit, in-house payment plans, or our VIP Membership savings plan.
Getting a Fixed Implant Denture, Step by Step
- Consultation. We review your health, examine your mouth, and take digital imaging to measure your bone.
- Design. Dr. Felo records your bite and plans the shape and shade of your new teeth.
- Implant placement. Implants are placed in the arch under local anesthesia, and any remaining failing teeth are removed.
- Temporary teeth. You wear temporary teeth while the implants fuse with the bone over several months.
- Your fixed denture. The final denture is fitted, screwed into place, and adjusted for comfort.
Caring for a Fixed Implant Denture
Clean your fixed denture twice a day with a soft brush, paying close attention to where it meets the gums. A water flosser helps rinse away food from underneath. Plan on regular professional visits, where the denture may be removed, cleaned thoroughly, and checked before it is secured again.
