Why more people are choosing Lower Suction dentures is a key question for those frustrated with loose Lower dentures. Lower Suction dentures, or SEMCD (Suction Effective Mandibular Complete Dentures), use a custom-fit seal to stay firmly in place, without needing adhesives or surgery.
This blog will explain the technology, benefits, candidacy, and the Ottawa South Denture Clinic process. By the end, you’ll understand why Lower Suction dentures are becoming a popular choice among denture wearers.
Understanding Lower Suction Dentures
Lower Suction dentures, also known as SEMCD, were developed by Dr. Jiro Abe in Japan and offer a revolutionary, surgery-free solution for denture stability. They rely on detailed impressions of your lower jaw to create an air-tight seal that keeps the denture securely in place, even for clients with very low gums. More than 80 percent of patients are candidates for this high-performance option.
Ottawa South Denture Clinic is a certified SEMCD provider and the first in the Ottawa area to offer this technique. With over 10 years of experience, our denturist team leads the process and guides patients through treatment planning and the timeline for creating their new dentures.
What Makes Them Work So Well
Lower Suction dentures work because of precision. A unique, detailed impression captures the intricate contours of your gums and jaw. The denture mirrors those shapes and forms an effective suction seal, so it remains secure during everyday activities—the result: better stability, fewer sore spots, improved function, and a more natural feel.
Key Benefits of Choosing SEMCD
Patients appreciate Lower Suction dentures for multiple reasons:
- No surgery required: A non-invasive solution for those who wish to avoid implants.
- No messy adhesives: The suction seal provides retention without paste or powder.
- Improved chewing and speaking: Stability equals function, so eating, speaking, and smiling are easier.
- Natural fit and reduced movement: The custom fit limits floating or lifting, enhancing confidence.
