Implant-based treatment is a specialty at Dental Arts of Boston. Dr. Mahmoud Hamad completed his periodontal residency at Harvard and focuses on implant placement and the bone foundation that supports it. That means your implants and your overdenture are planned and executed under one roof, with careful attention to a comfortable, lasting fit.
Most overdentures attach to just a few implants per arch using snap-in attachments or a supporting bar. We’ll evaluate your jawbone, discuss whether you’d benefit from a removable or fixed design, and build a treatment plan around your needs and budget — with financing available to help.

Most overdentures are designed to be removed for easy, thorough cleaning. If you’d prefer a permanently fixed full-arch option, ask us about All-on-X.
