My gums have become thin. Can I still get dentures?
A. Yes, you can. It is generally difficult to have implants put in with thin gums. And it is also considered a difficult case even with full dentures. But full dentures that make use of the muscles around the mouth, even for patients with thin gums, can be made using the maxillomandibular simultaneous impression method. Even with thin gums, these dentures adhere firmly and will not come out (this is because they can make use of the water-film phenomenon).
*Water-film
This is the phenomenon when two plies of wet glass adhere firmly when placed on top of one another.
