What makes an effective suction denture?
A denture of any kind is going to be effective as long as it supports your mouth’s routine daily functions. We can take for granted things like chewing, laughing, speaking, smiling, and even kissing. Any of these activities can be impacted by the quality of one’s dentures.
Conventional dentures can be loose in the mouth, difficult to control and stabilize. They end up being more of an irritant than anything. Patients can experience frequent discomfort, struggle chewing, and lose confidence.
What makes a suction denture a better option?
A suction denture is built on taking a unique, detailed impression of your gums. The dentures form to your mandible (fancy word for the lower jaw), mirroring every natural shape and accommodating movement throughout the oral activity. A strong seal is created, with firm suction that holds them in place regardless of what a person may be doing with their mouth.

How are Suction dentures different from other denture types?
To understand why suction lower dentures are oftentimes a superior choice for those who choose them, we must compare them to what’s available on the market.
Complete dentures suit the entirety of the oral cavity, covering all your teeth and replacing them with dentures.
Partial dentures are meant to replace one or more missing teeth, designed to fulfill the requirements of a pleasing aesthetic appearance and to restore basic functions of speech, eating, and other activities.
Implant supported dentures involve completing a surgery to implant the supports direct into the jaw. This helps keep the denture supported and prevents it from moving. An implant-supported denture is chosen when a person has no teeth in the jaw but has enough bone to support implants.
Immediate dentures are provided in the healing period after teeth have been extracted. They’re generally short-term and are used to help maintain the appearance of teeth, avoiding any embarrassment about having missing teeth.
So why are Suction dentures better than these other options? Well, for many patients, the results speak for themselves. Suction dentures don’t float around the mouth. They don’t require surgery to make it happen. They’re a permanent, long-term solution that a lot of patients find are easy to handle. This isn’t to say that other denture types aren’t appropriate or recommended for patients. Suction lower dentures are simply a revolutionary, highly-effective technique to resolve obstacles which can come with adhesives, surgery for implants, or stability troubles.
