What is a Snap-on Denture?

A snap-on denture, also known as an implant-supported denture or overdenture, is a type of denture that is supported by 2-4 dental implants. Dental implants are small titanium posts that are surgically placed in the jawbone to provide a stable base for the denture. The snap-on denture snaps onto the implants, providing a secure and stable fit throughout the day. 

Snap-on-Dentures vs. Traditional Dentures

Traditional dentures are removable prosthetic devices rest on top of your gums, creating a seal. While they can restore your ability to chew and speak, traditional dentures may not be as stable as implant-supported dentures. They may also cause discomfort and require frequent adjustments. Whereas implant-supported options clip into place for all-day stability.

Advantages of an Implant-Supported Denture

A smile makeover is a customized treatment plan designed to address your unique aesthetic concerns. It can involve a combination of cosmetic dentistry procedures, including teeth whitening, dental veneers, porcelain bridges, tooth-colored crowns, fillings, and more. 

Depending on your situation, a smile makeover can be as simple or dramatic as you like it to be. 

The first step in a smile makeover is a consultation with one cosmetic dentist. During this visit, we'll assess your dental health needs, discuss your goals, and develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific timeline and budget.

Partial Dentures

Partial dentures are removable prosthetic devices that are used to replace one or more missing teeth when you still have several healthy teeth remaining. They are typically attached to the remaining teeth using small clasps or precision attachments. Partial dentures can improve your ability to chew and speak and can also prevent your remaining teeth from shifting out of place.

Partial vs. Full Dentures

Full dentures are used to replace all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaw. In comparison, partial dentures are used to replace one or more missing teeth while preserving the remaining natural teeth. Full dentures are usually recommended if you’re missing all of your teeth or need the remaining teeth extracted.
