Screw-in teeth to hold dentures

Posted: September 27, 2009 11:33 am

I have tried everything you can think of and my lower dentures do not stay...I cannot eat with them on. I can only wear them approx. 1-2 hours a day and after that they hurt so badly. It has gotten to the point where my dentist suggested this form of screw-in type of teeth that the lower denture will somehow latch onto it and help hold them in place. I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions. Believe me I have tried EVERYTHING you can think of...besides these screw-in type things. Thanks

I,too, have had a very hard time keeping my bottom full denture in, no matter what I use. I have to remove them to eat or drink because they just float out. As a result, I have lost approx. 50lbs. and have become very self-conscious and don't wear them at all anymore. I haven't heard of the procedure you are referring to but am interested in hearing how you make out (should you decide to do it) with the screw-in teeth to hold your bottom denture in. Good luck and keep the rest of us out here posted if you can. Thanks.

Hi I knew a woman who tried the screw in teeth and they hurt so much she had to have them taken out. I to am having alot of trouble with my bottom partial. I did have all my top teeth taken out and they are doing quite well. I keep going back to have the bottoms made more comfortable but so far its been terrible. I have lost alot of weight because of the partial to. but I am hanging in there and hoping for the best. try to talk to other people who have had the screw ones in before you do that I heard its very painful
