I not happy with my denture so can they screw the new dentures in

Q. Ive been wearing the same dentures for 40years im 59 i cant even speak correctly cause my mouth has changed so much i HATE TO HAVE TO TAKE THEM OUT because of surgical procedures can they screw the new dentures in?

A. If you have enough bone you can have at least 2 implants placed per jaw and new dentures made.  Make sure you find a good dentist to do this.  In my practice we treat alot of people like yourself and carry out large grafting procedures.  You also need to make sure that the dentist that makes your new dentures is experienced as new dentures will feel very strange for you.  Ask them if they will carry out an “Gothic arch tracing” for your new dentures as this will improve the size and fit of them.  You can email me again if you need more advice.
