How do you get dentures to firmly stay in place?
Your oral functions are extremely important to eating. The way that you use your tongue and pronounce words is exactly the same with our full dentures as it is would be if you had all of your original teeth. (This drawing comes directly from the master, Dr. Hans Schleich's resources and shows full dentures.)
For example, when people eat, first they press their tongues against the upper jaws and gradually move the food back of the throat for swallowing. In the case of full dentures, these tongue movements make it easy for the dentures to slip out of place, so it is necessary to stabilize the dentures where the tongue comes into contact with them as it is pushing food towards the back of the mouth.
Also, in order to secure dentures and make sure they stay in place, it is best to place prosthetic teeth in the same position that natural teeth were in before they fell out.
How do you create full dentures that are modeled after a mouth with a full set of teeth?
How can we measure mouth movements and the shape of the mouth with all of its teeth when making dentures? The answer is simple. We make a 3-D copy of the condition of the mouth and design dentures that fit perfectly into that model. It's just that easy.
But there are not many dentists who make dentures in this way. The reason for this is that equipment and technology used to make a full 3-D model of the mouth is extremely high-tech.
High-tech mold-taking [maxillomandibular simultaneous impression method]
A mouth with a full set of teeth maintains a good balance with pressure from the cheek muscles pressing in from the outside and pressure from the tongue pushing out from the inside. When people lose their teeth, the cheek muscles continue to push from the sides and the lips from the front, but the tongue no longer has the teeth acting as outer support.
Because of this, the tongue tends to spread out more than when teeth were still present creating the illusion that there is no room for teeth. This makes taking a mold of the oral condition without teeth very difficult.
However, our clinic's 'full denture manufacturing method through maxillomandibular simultaneous impression method' is calibrated to account for the patient's original muscular state which gives us a perfect recreation of the patients teeth made from their own natural mouth movements.
