Loose Dentures: Solutions for a Better Fit

Over time, dentures may gradually become less secure. Factors such as jaw bone resorption, weight loss, and natural wear and tear on the dentures contribute to this issue. Ensure the longevity and optimal fit of your dentures by scheduling annual check-ups and professional cleanings with our Denturists at Beausejour Denture Clinic. These complimentary appointments not only offer a detailed examination of your denture's fit but also address any concerns you may have.

Possible Loose Denture Solutions

Adjustments: If your partial denture features a clasp, our Denturists can tighten it to ensure a snug fit.

Reline: Typically performed as dentures wear or in the months following an immediate denture placement. During a reline, a new impression is taken, and additional acrylic is added to the fitting side, creating a tighter fit. This process can be completed on the same day, with a morning appointment at 8-8:30 am and denture pickup around 2 pm.

Soft Liner: Enhance comfort and fit by adding a cushioned layer to new lower dentures or during a reline.

Tissue Conditioner: A temporary reline with healing properties, perfect for readjusting dentures after immediate placement and before a permanent reline. This chair-side treatment takes about 1 hour.

Replacement Denture: When age and wear are noticeably hindering your dentures' fit, it may be time for new. Schedule a consultation, we can discuss options, obtain pre-authorization from your insurance company (if applicable), and explore payment plans.

Dental Implants: For a secure solution to loose lower dentures, dental implants are the ultimate option. Unlike upper dentures with suction, lower dentures rely on bone structure, making implants crucial for stability if you have significant bone loss. With two or more implants, your denture stays firmly in place, reducing discomfort and sore spots. Whether retrofitting your existing denture or creating a new one, we ensure a seamless fit to the implants.

Adhesive: While denture adhesives offer a short-term fix for a loose denture, they are not a permanent solution.

Remember, for proper functionality, your denture requires retention, support, and stability. Trust us to address these aspects for an optimal denture experience.
