The tiny screws that hold the denture to the implants keep coming out. Two in the past two weeks.

Asked By:blusafire in Knoxville, TN

Why do they keep falling out of the top denture..the bottom is tight and secure. The top feels a little loose. Could my gums have shrunk that much? I had this done in July..don't have permanents yet.
