What Causes Dentures to Become Loose?

Over time, changes in your jawbone and gums can naturally cause dentures to become loose. Bone resorption or shrinkage following tooth loss is a common reason, and dentures can also become loose from regular wear and tear. Whatever the cause, our dentists at Whyalla Dental Care are here to help you achieve a secure and comfortable fit.

Treatment for Loose Dentures

Ill-fitting dentures can often be corrected, taking into account your dental health, remaining bone in the jaw, tissue condition, and the state of your current denture. Poorly fitted or outdated dentures or general wear and tear on denture materials can eventually necessitate a brand-new denture.

 

  • A denture reline reshapes the base of your existing dentures to ensure they fit snugly against your gums. This is a quick and cost-effective short-term solution for minor adjustments.

  • Implant-supported dentures offer a stable, long-term solution for gums with bone resorption. Dental Implants are placed into the jawbone and serve as a secure anchor for dentures, eliminating slippage and discomfort. They can also improve the fit of current dentures or support a new set, reducing ongoing maintenance and discomfort from ill-fitting dentures.

Don’t endure the discomfort of loose fitting dentures any longer.
