Denture Stabilization

Dr. John Raffel and his team of dental experts can provide permanent stability to your dentures.

 

If you have recently lost all of your teeth and replaced them with dentures, it may be a significant improvement but it is only the first step. Although you can smile once more without keeping your mouth closed, it is unlikely that your chewing ability is much improved. Are your dentures loose despite the adhesive that is meant to keep them in place? Do you feel the need to constantly adjust them? If your answer is yes and you live in the Miami area, you have arrived at the right place.

At Lastra & Raffel Family Dentistry, we can provide denture stabilization for a comfortable and permanent fit that will be entirely indistinguishable from your former natural teeth. Similar to the dental implants procedure, titanium posts will be attached to your jaw bone to serve as artificial roots. Once your dentures are fused to the implants, the process is complete.

The benefits of denture stabilization include:

  • Support for your bone structure and gum tissue to prevent decline
  • Support for your facial structure to prevent the “shrunken” look of advanced age
  • A firm hold inside your mouth for comfortable chewing and smiling
  • And much more!

If you are already experiencing some bone loss and/or receding gums due to tooth loss, stabilized dentures can stop the process if installed in a timely manner. In addition, this procedure is much more affordable than utilizing individual dental implants to replace all of your teeth.
