Overview
If you wear full dentures then you know the insecure feeling you get from eating, drinking and talking. Your dentures move sideways and backwards and forwards.
However good your dentures may be, they can never be a real substitute for your own teeth.
Whilst the upper denture has a larger support surface area and relies mainly on the palate to provide some form of "suction" or "vacuum", the lower denture relies on a multitude of contributory factors such as muscle, tongue and lower lip support. At the first displacement, which is inevitable at some point, a gap opens between the gum and the denture, subsequently lifting up the denture.
Wearing dentures for a number of years causes the underlying surface, the Jawbone, to resorb, resulting in "shrinkage" of the gum, leading ultimately to illfitting and unstable dentures.
Ultra Suction™ is capable of improving both the security of wearing dentures and the pleasure of eating, drinking and talking again
How does it work?
A special profiled space is created in the inner side of your denture (suction chamber).
Two tiny Ultra Suction™ valves are then inserted into your denture, one each side.
When you wear your denture and bite firmly, the air trapped between your gum and the denture is expelled through the valves. The result: a better fit to the gum and a more stable denture, giving you a firm and secure feeling.
To remove your denture, you simply lift it up.
Ultra Suction™ can be fitted by your Prosthesist/ Dentist on either your existing dentures, or at the same time as the making of your new set of dentures.
Is it right for me?
In general terms, if you wear full dentures, Ultra Suction™ should improve considerably the stability of your dentures, resulting in a firm and secure feeling.
Moreover, in most upper denture cases, with Ultra Suction™, your dental practitioner may be able to reduce the size of the plastic palate, improving both phonetics and taste.
You should, however always consult your dental practitioner who is the best person to advise whether Ultra Suction™ is suitable for you.
