Patients in Liverpool with ill-fitting or loose dentures may suffer with a daily struggle when eating, speaking and even smiling. Loose dentures can cause a host of problems including bone degeneration due to the continual wearing down of the supporting bone tissue. This wear is what causes dentures to become even looser and many patients will go through a number of dentures during their lifetime to maintain some kind of function.
What can be done about loose dentures?
However, with dental implant stabilised dentures patients can experience a solid and strong smile again, meaning they can eat what they want and never fear the embarrassment of dentures falling out of their mouth.
What does the dental implant treatment involve?
Implants are fitted into your jawbone in specific areas, which provide the best support from your denture. The titanium posts are then left to fuse with your jawbone, to ensure that you have a strong, secure foundation for your denture. Once your implants have integrated with your jawbone your denture can be fitted into place, for a strong, stable smile.
What are the main benefits of dental implant stabilised dentures?
Patients with stabilised dentures can experience many benefits, including:
- A strong set of teeth they can use to eat anything, meaning their diet doesn’t suffer because of their teeth.
- Teeth that remain within the mouth, never falling out and causing your embarrassment.
- Strong and healthy jawbone tissue, which is strengthened rather than worn away.
- Long-lasting smiles, with dental implants lasting for many years, if not a lifetime, if they are well maintained.
