London SE1 dentist removes anxiety of loose dentures with mini-implants

04 / 08 / 2010

Everyone has probably known someone with dentures in their life and is aware of the problems associated with them. We have all also seen the adverts on TV for denture adhesive used to keep the dentures in place. Loose fitting dentures are potentially very embarrassing and can be the source of great anxiety for those that have to wear them. As if losing your teeth wasn’t enough pain and embarrassment, having to worry that your dentures might fall out at an important moment can be very stressful.

Denture adhesives do work but they are also very messy and can prevent the patient from eating many types of food. Luckily, there is now a more permanent solution that doesn’t involve the daily application of a sticky gel. Mini-implants work by fixing small screws directly into the jawbone. These are solid and act as a rigid base for the dentures which can be clipped on and off. The mini-implants are small-scale versions of the implants used commonly to replace missing teeth and have a proven track record. They are fitted directly into the jaw and fuse with the bone and tissue to become almost like part of the jaw. Once firm, your dentures can be adjusted to fit the mini-implants and you will be free to enjoy an anxiety free life safe in the knowledge that your dentures will never fall out and that you can eat any food you want.

Mini-implants are available from London SE1 dentists and are the perfect solution to all your loose denture needs. Make an appointment today to find out more about them.
