Dentures are valuable for restoring your smile and functionality after tooth loss. However, traditional dentures can become loose or ill-fitting over time, causing discomfort and impacting confidence. If you're experiencing these issues, Dental Arts of Florida can help with denture stabilization in Jacksonville, FL. Our experienced dentists specialize in creating a secure and comfortable fit for your dentures, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
Denture stabilization uses dental implants to create a strong foundation for your artificial teeth. These implants are tiny titanium screws, similar to posts, that we insert into your jawbone. With just a few strategically placed implants, your dentures will snap into place securely, preventing them from moving or falling out.
Implant-supported dentures offer improved security compared to traditional options. Two main types of implant attachments achieve this stability: ball-and-socket and bar attachments.
Imagine tiny buttons (called implants) placed in your jawbone. These implants hold small metal balls. The denture itself has corresponding sockets that snap securely onto these balls. This ball-and-socket mechanism provides a snug fit for your denture.
This method uses a minimum of two implants and a custom-made metal bar that curves along your jawbone, connecting the implants. The denture is designed to fit over this bar, and clips or attachments on either the denture or implants ensure a secure lock.
The first step is to chat with our dentist. Your jawbone needs enough strength to hold the implant (usually a metal post) to be a good candidate. Without this strong foundation, the implant might not fuse properly with the bone.
But there's good news! Dentists can sometimes adjust the procedure for people with weaker jawbones. This could involve using a different type of implant, like a clip that attaches firmly to your gums. A dentist might recommend a bone graft to strengthen the area before implant placement in more severe cases.

Denture stabilization using dental implants has a high success rate, typically over 95%. The success depends on factors such as oral hygiene, bone quality, and overall health.
The timeline varies depending on individual cases. The healing period for osseointegration usually takes a few months. However, the initial consultation and implant placement can be completed within a few visits.
In some cases, existing dentures can be modified to be used with implants. However, new dentures designed for implant stabilization often provide the best fit and comfort.
