HOW DO I OVERCOME LOOSE DENTURES!!!

This Suction denture technique, developed by Dr. Jiro Abe of Japan, creates suction for a full lower denture, even for patients with an advanced bone loss of the lower jaw.

This highly successful technique eliminates the problem of the lower denture lifting and collecting food underneath by creating a continuous seal at the entire border of the denture base through a suction mechanism.

In 2019, Dr.Murali Karthik travelled to Japan to attend a hands-on course and training for the lower Suction Denture Technique.

He is a Prosthodontist and Implantologist working in the field of Complete Dentures for the past 10 years.

He is also a Asst. Professor in Sri Venkateswara Dental College and Hospital.

How do they work?

The impressions  for the dentures are created in stages, which provides the most optimal and customised fit for the patient.

The prosthetic is craft intricately and precisely to enable a vacuum around the gums.

This vacuum is then created once the dentures are seated and pressed onto the gum profile by expressing the air outwards. Once they need to be removed, the vacuum seal will cancel once manual force is applied.

The process of removing the prosthetic may require a little force, but this is not causing for concern and simply demonstrates that you have quality suction dentures.

 

What is the advantage?

Other than conventionally fitted dentures, suction fitted dentures have the added advantage of being less likely to come loose.

This is primarily due to the additional support of the suction vacuum. 

Advantages  from improvement of speech, mastication, and comfort.

Benefits:

  • Suction in the Lower Denture
