Traditional dentures require relining periodically if you notice they feel loose or start to slip when you talk or eat.
This is common and completely normal and a denture reline will help your appliance to fit snugly again.
Why Do Dentures Become Loose?
Traditional dentures rely on a snug fit to your jawbone to keep them from moving and slipping. Over time, the pressure put on the bone causes some deterioration, which can lead to a compromised fit. Most dentures need to be relined every few months or once a year to ensure you can eat and chew with ease and confidence.
Stabilize Your Denture with Dental Implants in Jensen Beach
If you're struggling with an ill-fitting denture, dental implants may provide more stability. We can use a few carefully placed implants to support a denture that's designed to fit with the implants.
The implants hold the appliance securely in place so there's no slippage or movement during talking, eating, chewing, or laughing. The implants also provide the added benefit of keeping your bone stimulated so there's no deterioration.
