Denture stabilisation with dental implants

Serving patients throughout Stroud, Nailsworth, Stonehouse, Cheltenham, Gloucester and Gloucestershire

Many patients with no remaining teeth or teeth that need removal, do not want to wear conventional removable dentures. These traditional dentures can become uncomfortable and loose over time as the jawbone shrinks causing eating and speech problems.

We offer an alternative solution at Rowcroft Dental Centre using the latest technology and techniques that can change your life. Using dental implants to securely fix a denture in place we can recreate your natural smile with teeth that feel just like your own, restoring both your smile and your quality of life.

Dental implants help to maintain your facial structures by preserving the remaining bone in your jaws. This minimises wrinkles around the mouth by restoring lost lip-support and markedly improves your ability to chew. With dental implants, you can eat whatever you want and enjoy your food again!

Our implant dentist, Jolyon House will carefully place titanium implants into the jaw to replacing some of the original roots. Between 4 to 8 implants are needed to securely fix a denture in place.

The dental implants then need to be left for a short time for the bone and gum to heal around them before they can support the final denture. This can take between 3 to 6 months. Once that happens, the titanium becomes one with the bone around it, making the foundation for your denture extremely strong and stable. Jolyon will then carefully craft and fit your replacement denture, ensuring it blends perfectly with your natural smile.

At Rowcroft Dental Centre we can assist with all implant cases, from the simplest to the most complex. Our patients have the peace of mind that they can access progressive technology and benefit from a wealth of experience from our implant dentist, Jolyon.

The benefits of implants

  • Implants look and feel just like natural teeth – you shouldn’t notice any difference.
  • With dental implants, replacement teeth are securely anchored without compromising any neighbouring healthy teeth.
  • Implants won’t come loose or fall out.
  • Implants prevent ageing bone loss, by stimulating your bone structure and stabilising the surrounding teeth.
  • Implants can last for many years if you maintain good oral hygiene.

Are you suitable for treatment?

Patients must have healthy gums and enough jawbone to support dental implants. At your initial consultation Jolyon will use x-rays and scans to establish if pre-treatment is required and will explain this further.

Some patients may need to see a hygienist for a course of treatment to ensure their gums are strong and healthy before the dental implant process can begin.

Jolyon will also check that there is sufficient bone for an implant to be placed successfully at this initial consultation. If there is insufficient bone you may need to need pre-treatment before your dental implants can be placed. This may include oral surgery procedures such as bone grafting, bone expansion or sinus lifts.

To find out more about how dental implants could transform your life, give us a call on 01453 750778 or 01453 764762 to book a consultation with Jolyon today!

I thought that the professionalism of the Dentist and the staff was exemplary.

13th June 2025

Dentist, hygienist and their assistants are excellent, as are reception staff. Written communication has developed a sales oriented tone which is not my preference.

13th June 2025

As a new member/patient at Rowcroft I’ve only had consultation and seen the hygienist. My tether were in poor condition and the prognosis wasn’t great. However, in just three visits and following all the advice I am now in a much better position. I am one very grateful customer indeed. Lisa Rodway is excellent!

13th June 2025

Staff are always friendly and courteous and I found my conversation with the clinician reassuring. I have been a patient at this clinic for over 25 years and am satisfied that the team are all doing their best to help me look after my gums as I suffer from gingivitis.

Another good experience at Rowcroft today. Painless hygienist too. Thanks!

8th June 2025

The dental hygienist takes great care to cause me minimum discomfort during the process, listens thoughtfully to any issues I might have and explains carefully anything I need to be aware of in my teeth care at home. My dentist also listens attentively to any issues and is considerate in his explanations of what's happening; he never patronises me and always makes me feel like I am an equal partner in my dental care.

. Staff friendly understanding and the practice well organised

7th June 2025

Always friendly and efficient. I have confidence in what they are doing and they seem to excel in their jobs. I thought about changing dentist when I moved house but I like them too much! So, I'm staying.

Assisted by friendly, caring staffing in all departments, as always.

6th June 2025

I never feel my appointment is rushed, I always feel that I have a thorough check up and clean. Any issues are highlighted and I’m always given plenty of advice. I no longer live in the area but couldn’t image going anywhere else.
