Dr. Carter strategically positions biocompatible implant posts along the curve of your upper or lower arch. These implants securely hold the bar, or framework, that your dentures will be attached to. &nbsp;Clips or some other kinds of attachments are fitted to the bar, the denture or both. Then, the denture fits over the bar and is securely held in place by the attachments.<\/p>\n\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Caring for Your Implant Retained Bar Dentures<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As with dentures that rest on your gums, you\u2019ll need to remove your <strong>implant retained bar dentures<\/strong> every day to clean your prosthetic and provide your gums with the proper hygiene they need. Likewise, you should not sleep with your implant retained bar dentures in place.<\/p>\n\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Schedule an Appointment Today<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you would like to learn more about <strong>implant retained bar dentures<\/strong>, then call the office of Dr. Bruce Carter and ask about a consultation.
