My dentist has supposedly refitted, relined and remade my dentures but they still come loose EVERY time I eat. Not some of the times I eat but every time. I am so sick of this. I have had these dentures 8 months and during that time I have lot 25 lbs just from eating very little because of all the drama with these dentures. My dentist says that I might need new dentures. Didn’t I get new dentures already? I don’t think that is the solution. Is there some way to cement them on or is it possible that I will really need new dentures all over again? Lavonia
Lavonia – Without an examination of your dentures and your mouth, it is impossible to say whether or not the fit of your new dentures can be adjusted, or if you need new dentures.
Although it is not possible to cement your dentures in place, they can be stabilized with dental implants. An implant resembles a tooth root. Dental implants are surgically placed in your jawbone, and your dentures are attached to them. Securing your dentures with implants ensures that the dentures won’t loosen or dislodge and embarrass you.
Schedule an appointment with an implant dentist for a consultation to discuss your options. Whether your existing dentures can be used, or if you need new dentures, you will be able to smile, speak, and eat with confidence when your dentures are secured with dental implants.
