Lower Locking Dentures 

One of the most common problems we offer a solution to is ill-fitting lower dentures. We see patients all the time who are frustrated with a lower denture that simply doesn’t fit right. If your lower denture doesn’t fit nice and snugly, it could affect what you eat, how you eat, and your comfort level. 

There are several reasons why your lower denture might not fit properly. Your body knows when a tooth is extracted; this causes the bone that supported the tooth to be reshaped. Once all the lower teeth are extracted, however, the body eventually begins to resorb the jaw bone. Take a look at the photo provided.

It’s normal for bone loss to occur in people who wear lower dentures, but that doesn’t mean you have to wear uncomfortable, ill-fitting dentures each day.
