16Denture, Smile Solutions for Denture Patients
This patient was having a difficult time eating due to his dentures moving and sliding when he would eat or drink. Denture adhesives were not strong enough to keep his dentures in place and for him to feel comfortable when he was out eating with friends and family. We placed six dental implants, four on the upper arch and two on the lower arch. The implant procedure was completed with the help of sedation dentistry, as this patient was concerned about pain and discomfort. The upper denture fits so tightly, he now has a difficult time removing his upper denture. Such a problem to have with a denture! The implants and dentures have now been in his mouth for several years, and the patient is very happy with fit of his new teeth. |
