Denture Implants & Stabilisation London

At Ten Dental, our award-winning clinics in Balham and Clapham, London, we understand the importance of providing solutions that restore function and improve our patients’ quality of life. Denture implants and implant-assisted dentures are excellent options for those who are missing multiple teeth or struggling with traditional dentures’ limitations.

Denture implants, also known as implant-assisted dentures or implant-supported dentures, are a revolutionary combination of dental implants and removable dentures. This treatment involves placing a few strategically positioned dental implants in the jawbone, supporting a specially designed denture. The implants provide a stable foundation for the denture, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit.

Advantages of Denture Implants:

1. Increased stability: Dental implants eliminate the slipping, clicking, and movement often associated with traditional dentures, providing a more secure and confident experience.
2. Improved chewing ability: With a stable base, implant-assisted dentures allow patients to enjoy a wider variety of foods, including those that may have been difficult to eat with traditional dentures.
3. Preserved jawbone: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, helping to prevent bone loss that often occurs with missing teeth or long-term denture use.
4. Enhanced comfort: Implant-assisted dentures distribute biting forces more evenly, reducing pressure points and discomfort associated with traditional dentures.
5. Removable for easy cleaning: While providing stability, implant-assisted dentures can still be removed for easy cleaning and maintenance.

At Ten Dental, we believe aesthetics are just as important as function. That’s why all of our dentures, including implant-assisted dentures, are handcrafted by our skilled in-house technician to look like natural teeth. We pay meticulous attention to detail, ensuring that your dentures’ shape, colour, and texture closely mimic the appearance of healthy, natural teeth.

Our experienced team of dental professionals, including our implant surgeons and restorative dentists, work closely together to create a personalised treatment plan that addresses your unique needs and goals. We use the latest technology and techniques to ensure optimal results, from the precise placement of dental implants to the custom fabrication of your dentures.

What is denture stabilisation?

Dentures can be unstable and slide, causing functional difficulties in daily activities and gum irritation. The three prosthetic principles of denture design and function are stability, support, and retention. Stability covers the movement of the denture base on the horizontal plane, such as how much the dentures move. The pink part of the denture base should fit comfortably with a gentle glide along the edentulous ridge of the palate.

When is denture stabilisation needed?

When any of the following symptoms are experienced, denture stabilisation may be necessary:

• Sliding dentures causing oral discomfort and irritated gums.
• Uncomfortable wear due to poorly fitted dentures.
• Abnormal oral function, such as difficulty chewing and interrupted speech.
• Gum and bone tissue shrinkage causing looser dentures over time.

How can dentures be stabilised?

Dentures can be stabilised through any of the following dental treatments:

• Denture design adjustment and fitting.
• Mini or full dental implants for removable or fixed dentures.
• Syncone implants for stable denture attachment.
• Oral surgery to increase the size of the edentulous ridge of the palate.

Why stabilise dentures?

Stabilising uncomfortable, slipping dentures improves oral function when speaking and eating, enhances appearance, increases confidence, and provides greater comfort. Denture stabilisation prevents bone loss, which impacts not only your oral function but also your facial structure and expression.
