Implant retained dentures offer a secure, comfortable alternative to traditional removable dentures. Instead of resting on the gums alone, these dentures are supported by dental implants placed in the jawbone. This creates a stable foundation that helps prevent slipping, improves function, and restores confidence in your smile.
They are an excellent option for patients who are missing multiple teeth or all teeth in one or both arches, and who want a more reliable and natural-feeling solution than conventional dentures.

I am a highly trained oral surgeon with a strong commitment to providing high-quality, pain-free treatment to all my patients. Having worked with a diverse range of individuals, I have developed excellent communication skills and excel at putting patients at ease and clearly explaining procedures, expected outcomes and post-treatment follow-up needs. I have extensive experience performing oral surgery and oral medicine, including difficult extractions, dental implants, restorations and bone augmentation procedures. In addition, I am adept at diagnosing and managing treatment of infective, premalignant and immunological oral diseases.
Throughout my career, I have trained and mentored numerous dental students, new dentists and other clinical and non-clinical staff. This includes lecturing and teaching university and continuing education courses in oral medicine as well as assessing progress and providing individualised support to assist students and colleagues in learning new techniques and procedures.

“The patient’s needs are truly a priority. We deliver personalised services of the highest quality.”
I studied Prosthodontics, Periodontics and implant dentistry. I have worked for more than fifteen years in Periodontics and implantology focusing on saving natural teeth and replacement using the latest technology and treatments.
My passion is knowledge. Keeping up to update with the latest technologies and treatment techniques leads me to study both in England and outside for the necessary learning to provide the best for my patients.
On the other hand, meditation, yoga and different sports allow me to maintain a healthy lifestyle through mind-body harmony.
Serving and giving my best to the patients embodied in the understanding of biology is what I absolutely love about dentistry. The patients for whom I have the most empathy is those who arrive when they have no hope of keeping their natural teeth and complex cases regarding bone regeneration and dental implants.
Sonria is a clinic where the patient’s needs are truly a priority. The team are focused on delivering personalised services of the highest quality to patients.
I speak Spanish and English.
The process is typically completed in a few key stages:
Your dentist will assess your oral health, bone density, and suitability for implants. Scans and impressions may be taken to plan your treatment.
A small number of dental implants (usually 2–4 per arch) are carefully placed into the jawbone. These act as secure anchors for the denture.
Over a few months, the implants integrate with the bone in a process called osseointegration. This ensures long-term stability.
Once healing is complete, specially designed dentures are attached to the implants using clips, bars, or locator attachments. These allow the denture to snap securely into place.
Regular check-ups help ensure your implants and dentures remain in excellent condition.
Yes, most implant retained dentures can be removed for cleaning, while still offering a very secure fit during daily use.
Typically, 2–4 implants are used per arch, depending on your individual needs and bone structure.
The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic, and most patients report minimal discomfort. Any soreness afterwards is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
Treatment usually takes a few months, allowing time for healing and integration of the implants with the bone.
You should clean your dentures daily and maintain good oral hygiene around the implants. Regular dental visits are also important.
Most patients are suitable, but adequate bone density and good general oral health are important. Your dentist will assess your suitability during your consultation.
With proper care, dental implants can last many years, often decades. The denture itself may need occasional adjustments or replacement over time.
