Denture Stabilisation in Staplehurst, Kent

A denture that lifts, rocks or clicks makes eating and speaking a constant negotiation. Denture stabilisation anchors your denture onto a small number of dental implants, so it stays exactly where it should — a change patients in Staplehurst, Kent consistently describe as life-altering.

  • Denture held firmly — no slipping or rocking
  • Bite into food you have avoided for years
  • Speak clearly without adjusting your denture
  • No adhesives or pastes needed
  • Slimmer, more comfortable denture design
  • Implants help preserve the jawbone

How denture stabilisation works

We place a small number of implants — commonly two in the lower jaw, four in the upper — into the jawbone. Once integrated, attachments are fitted to the implants and matching housings are built into your denture, so it clips securely into place and you remove it for cleaning as normal.

In many cases your existing denture can be adapted rather than replaced, provided it fits and looks the way you want. Where a new denture is the better option, we make it to suit the stabilised design from the outset.

Who is suitable

Stabilisation suits anyone with a loose lower denture, patients who rely on adhesive daily, those who gag on a full upper plate, and people who have lost confidence eating in company. We need sufficient bone to anchor the implants; a scan tells us this quickly, and where bone has shrunk we can often build it up with grafting or a sinus lift. Good gum health and stopping smoking significantly improve success rates.

Living with a stabilised denture

You take it out at night and to clean, brushing both the denture and the implant attachments carefully — we show you exactly how. The rubber or metal retention parts wear gradually and are simply replaced during routine reviews. Most patients need a check every six to twelve months at our Staplehurst practice.
