Lock-in Dentures

Traditional dentures can often become loose, causing chewing and speaking problems. But with lock-in dentures from your St. Lucie West Dental Care dentist, stability problems are not a concern. With a simple procedure, we can create dentures that “lock in” using a customized combination of holding caps and snap-on components.

Lock-in dentures consist of a miniature titanium implant post and a retaining fixture that is incorporated into the base of your denture. With this process, you enjoy the following benefits:

• The implant posts are surgically placed in your gums, acting as the roots of your teeth.
• The posts have a ball-shaped head that snaps firmly into the retaining fixture at the bottom of your customized denture.
• When seated into place, the denture rests gently on the gum tissue.
• Now you have a secure denture that allows the same feel and function of normal teeth, without the need for messy, irritating dental adhesive!
