Denture problems anyone?

Does your denture fall out when you bend over to tie your shoes? Do you have to add so much glue to hold in your denture that you can’t bring your lips together? Does your mouth stay sore for days from jackhammering the adhesive off your gums?

If these apply to you, mini-implants might be the solution to your problem. They are 4 small screws with heads that fit into sockets placed in your denture and they are stable and retentive. Most patients report a minimum amount of discomfort from the minor surgery involved and while not cheap, they are within most people’s budgets and much cheaper than full size implants. They can be placed and fitted to most existing dentures in just 2-3 hours and immediately utilized. Stay tuned here in the future, as I will show you actual cases, which I have placed in people’s mouths just like yours.
