The difference a good denture makes: VD Studio
Don’t put up with lower denture movement when you eat, says local specialist Jimmy Chao.
Well fitted dentures make a world of difference. Unlike upper dentures, which can create suction against the palate, lower dentures sit on a smaller foundation and must work against movement in tongue, cheek, and jaw, says Jimmy Chao, clinical dental technician at Village Denture Studio in Prebbleton.
“Lower denture movement is a common problem. The great news is that modern technology means options are available to provide better results than you think,” Jimmy says.
Issues can be addressed with quality conventional dentures, or the team can take you through the Premium Care Plus service where specialised impression techniques combine with an intra-oral scanner to achieve a level of precision difficult to obtain through conventional methods. “Once design is finalised, we manufacture the denture using our German precision milling technology,” says Jimmy. “It is particularly beneficial for patients with challenging lower ridges.”
Implant-retained overdentures are an excellent solution for the highest level of retention for some patients, says Jimmy, who has over 15 years of expertise in both clinical and laboratory aspects of denture construction.
