Loose dentures are a very common problem, making it tricky to eat and talk without fear of the dentures shifting position, or even worse coming out. It is an issue that increasingly affects dentures wearers after they have had their dentures for several years and as the bone supporting the dentures gradually changes shape, offering less support and retention. This is where dental implants at Anacapa Dental can help.
Using Dental Implants to Stabilize Loose Dentures
There are various different dental implant treatments that can be used to stabilize loose dentures. These can vary according to the implant system used and the number of dental implants required. Treatment may also differ in whether the denture will be removable, or if a patient chooses to have it replaced completely with a fixed bridge of teeth that will remain permanently in place until removed by a dental implant dentist. The most cost-effective treatment is often to use just a few dental implants to hold a denture in place and where it can still be taken out each day for cleaning.
Best Dental Implants System: All-On-4 Dental Implants
Quite often, it’s possible to hold a lower loose denture firmly in position with as few as four dental implants using a technique called All-on-4 Implants. The dental implants are inserted at the front of the jawbone as this is because the bone in this area tends to be stronger and thicker, reducing the need for bone grafts. The denture will then simply clip into place but can be easily taken out for cleaning. This treatment is hugely effective and can often be completed quite quickly.
Using Multiple Dental Implants
Another option is to use multiple dental implants to hold a denture or to replace it completely with a fixed arch of teeth. This might be a good choice for anyone who is thoroughly fed up with wearing a denture and who would much prefer to have teeth that are non-removable. With this choice, it’s often possible to use various different types of dental implants, including mini dental implants treatment to hold the loose dentures or bridge in place.
