Implant-Supported Dentures in Reading
.webp)
Stabilising dentures with innovative implant solutions.
While conventional dentures provide an affordable solution to missing teeth, the most common complaint is that they’re uncomfortable, making simple tasks like speaking and eating challenging. Here at Reading Dental Spa, we have the solution – implant-supported dentures.
By securing custom dentures with just a few implants, patients have a fully stable, fully secure alternative to traditional appliances.

What Are Implant-Supported Dentures?
Often referred to as ‘snap-on’ or ‘clip-on’ dentures, implant-supported appliances work the same way as traditional dentures, providing a fully removable or, in some cases, a fixed structure that provides immediate functionality and aesthetics.
The key difference is that where conventional dentures rely on a combination of structural anatomy and adhesive to keep them in place, implant-supported appliances (as the name suggests) are supported using just 4 dental implants in the upper jaw and 2 in the lower jaw, making them a cost-effective alternative to full-arch rehabilitation.
Essentially, implant-supported dentures here in Reading, offer a middle ground between traditional dentures that sit on the gum line and a full arch implant restoration.
If you want a more stable and secure solution to traditional dentures but don’t want the hefty bill that comes with full-arch restorations, talk to us about how implant-supported dentures can help, today!
Benefits Of Implant-Supported Dentures
- Improved stability – With implants acting as anchors, dentures are guaranteed to stay secure and in position.
- Greater comfort – Say goodbye to chafing and rubbing that most denture wearers are familiar with. Our implant-supported dentures here in Reading provide complete stability with zero movement for greater comfort and peace of mind.
- Better quality of life – Since implant-supported appliances offer full stability, you won’t have any embarrassing slippages when you eat or speak. Instead, you can expect a beautiful, natural-looking, hassle-free smile that won’t let you down.
- Bone preservation – Because traditional dentures are not secured into the jaw they won’t halt bone loss. Implants, on the other hand, help to stimulate the jawbone, preventing further bone deterioration.
- Long-lasting solution – With proper care, implant-supported dentures can last for many years. This is not the case with traditional dentures that need regular replacement.
- No dietary changes – Unlike conventional dentures that require you to avoid many of the hard or crunchy foods you love, implant-supported appliances allow you to eat whatever you want without dietary restriction.
The Treatment Process Explained
Once we’re sure you have sufficient remaining bone, our experienced dentist will place the implants during a single appointment. This is normally done under a local anesthetic so you won’t feel a thing.
Sometimes there will be a short wait of around 2-3 months to allow the implants to fully stabilise in the jaw. In the interim, you can continue to wear your existing appliance.
Once the implants have integrated into the jaw, we’ll attach your custom-made prosthesis.

“This dental practice has just opened, 2 brothers who already have a practice in Basingstoke. One of the cheapest compared to others in the area, was able to see me on the same day and had my root canal the next day. Fantastic service. Thank you.”
Levi Davies
“Highly recommend the Reading Dental Spa! Shervin and Shani are so friendly and helpful! I am starting my Invisalign® treatment here and I am so happy with the service I am receiving! Thank you!”
Bernard Waihenya
“This is a modern and professional dental spa that treasures its patients. Upon arrival, I was met by the receptionist who was warm and welcoming taking me through the initial sign-in procedures. The dentist was kind and gentle which is good as I’ve had some bad experiences with rough dentists. They’ve got a TV in the room that’s on the ceiling so that’s something innovative I’ve never really come across before. All in all, it's probably the best dental spa I’ve been to and will be coming back.”
Molly Aspinall
“Wonderful dental practice! Very modern set-up with a super professional team that put me at ease! Highly recommend.”
Andrea Pollard
“Today I visited Reading Dental Spa Stunning new Dental practice for facial aesthetics. On entering, the reception area has a very tranquil feel. After my consultation, we went through the surgery, which was pristine and full of exciting new-fangled modern gadgets. I can imagine that nervous dental patients would soon have their minds taken off the treatment with a TV on the ceiling and noise-cancelling headphones! The dentist has a very calming manner, and I felt like he listened to my requirements. The aesthetic treatment was painless, and I can't wait to see the results. Overall, this was a friendly five-star service I would happily return and recommend. Thank you!”
Mary Cotton
“I visited this new practice for the first time today and I have found my new dental surgery. I received a very warm and friendly welcome. Shervin made me feel very comfortable and explained everything very carefully to me. I have no hesitation in recommending Reading Dental Spa.
Stacey Mullins
“From the minute I stepped foot into Reading Dental Spa I felt very looked after by both the Dental nurse to the Dentist himself, which made me very relaxed especially as I’m a nervous patient. They went above and beyond to make my treatment as comfortable as possible. 10/10”
Alexandra Hawkins
“I recently went to this new practice and it's fantastic!! Very modern and fresh with polite and friendly reception staff and both dentists are great! I've had a hygienist clean and Phillips Zoom teeth whitening (currently half price). I normally go to Inspire Dental and realised that both dentists (brothers), worked there previously. The Spa itself is calming, contemporary and a completely different experience from other dentist practices. The TV on the ceiling is a fantastic touch, and very relaxing overall. I highly recommend it!!”
Satish Pakki
“Today, I visited the Dental Spa for a teeth cleaning. First of all, the clinic was extremely clean and well-maintained. Shani gave me a warm welcome and offered me a drink. Treatment-wise Dr Shaun did a great job I have never had someone take so much time and thoroughly to clean my teeth, and I feel much better after. Shani was quite helpful throughout the process, and she explained in detail the fees associated with future treatment plans, etc. Very lovely and courteous team, and highly recommended.”

“I recently began my Invisalign® treatment at Reading Dental Spa, and from the first visit, the staff has been incredibly friendly.”
