I currently have lower dentures and am considering the implant pins. My dentures are very uncomfortable and I don't enjoy eating anymore. I cannot eat steak, chicken or anything chewy because of the pain from my dentures. I have had them for 3 years. I have little to no bone on my lower jaw but my surgeon says the pins are a good option for me.
Answer: Snap On Dentures
Most definitely. What you need are Mini Dental Implants with a denture customized and adapted with O-Rings. The head of the Mini Dental Implants and the O-Rings placed at the dentures creates the "Snap" effect when you place them. These dentures have "no palate" and they can "Snapped On" and "Snapped off" from your jawbone.
You will be able to eat and chew anything you want. Dentures glue may be not strong enough to bite certain foods and a problem that arises is that when you bite on one side, the same pressure on the denture makes the other side of your denture become loose.
Also, many dentures have palate, and the palate is a very important factor to taste food better. When you have your palate covered by a denture, many food flavors are simply ignored. With these Implant retained Dentures you will be able to chew and bite on any side without any slips or movement of the denture.
The placing of the Mini Dental Implants is a minimally invasive procedure and we place it in less than an hour at our clinic.

Answer: What Are the Pros and Cons for the Dental Implant Pins for Dentures? Lower dentures can be very difficult if they do not have adequate retention and stability. Implants in the lower jaw that your denture can snap onto can greatly improve your quality of life and what you're able to eat and enjoy. On the lower, you would want to have anywhere from 2-4 implants placed to help stabilize your denture. It's an amazing service we offer our patients. Hope this helps!

Answer: Can a denture be improved with implants Yes, implants can dramatically improve your quality of eating and experience with your denture. If at all possible, I suggest to my patients to use 4 implants with locator attachments. This is the least expensive and gives good stability to your denture. If your denture is in good shape, it may be able to be retrofitted to your implants. Ask your dentist his recommendation.

Answer: Implant over dentures Dear Chelybns, Implant overdentures (dentures over implants) are a standard of care nowadays. There's always enough bone in the anterior part of your mandible for 2–4 implants. The implants and properly fabricated overdentures will significantly improve the comfort and your ability to chew better. However, please be mindful that the dentures aren't going to feel like your own teeth and might not meet your expectations on chewing steaks, chicken, and some leafy greens. For that, you might consider the fixed restoration option.

Please visit a periodontist or an oral surgeon to assess whether you have enough bone in the front of your jaw to place at least two implants.
