The Denture Upgrade Ladder
Where you are today — and how far you can go.
Traditional Denture
Functional starting point — honest about its limits: removable, adhesive-dependent, palate-covering.
Implant Overdenture
Snap-on stability over 2–4 implants. More secure than traditional, but still removable nightly.
All-on-4 Screw-Retained
Permanent and fixed. But expensive, with major surgery for many patients.
LOCATOR FIXED™
A fixed, palate-free full-arch option. Existing overdentures may be convertible after compatibility and clinical assessment.
Learn More →Explore LOCATOR FIXED™
LOCATOR FIXED is one approach for patients considering fixed full-arch teeth. Its attachment design, maintenance needs and treatment steps differ from screw-retained options. Existing LOCATOR overdentures may be convertible, but implant position, condition and component compatibility must be evaluated first.
- ✓ Fixed full-arch design
- ✓ Palate-free design
- ✓ Individualized planning
- ✓ Conversion may be possible
Bring your implant records if available. Dr. Tafreshi will evaluate implant health, number, position and attachment compatibility before recommending a conversion or estimating the number of appointments.
Call (949) 360-9700 to confirm →Traditional Dentures
Traditional dentures remain a valid starting option — particularly for patients who need an immediate solution or who aren't ready for implant treatment. We craft them in our in-house lab for the best possible fit and aesthetics.
We'll be honest about their trade-offs: nightly removal, denture adhesive, palate coverage that affects taste, and the gradual bone loss that comes from a denture sitting on the gums. When you're ready to upgrade, the path forward is clear.

Implant Overdentures
A major step up from traditional dentures. Two to four implants anchor a removable denture with secure snap-on attachments — no slipping, no adhesives.
Still removable, still typically palate-covered. But if those implants are LOCATOR-compatible, you have a direct upgrade path to LOCATOR FIXED whenever you're ready.
