SNAP ON DENTURES

When considering dentures or any type of tooth replacement, it’s best to know your options. Thanks to advances in modern dentistry, you can be sure that there are many comfortable, high-tech tooth replacement options.Dentures from before have also changed a lot in the last 10 to 20 years. Dentures that can be taken out can be made to be more comfortable and useful than they were in the past. Dentures can also be held in place securely by dental implants. This procedure helps the teeth look, feel, and work more like they did when they were real.

A potential remedy for tooth decay and tooth loss is snap in dentures. It is commonly known as implant-supported dentures. About 36 million Americans have lost all of their teeth, while up to 120 million have lost at least one, according to the American College of Prosthodontists. If you’re considering utilizing dentures to replace your natural teeth, snap in dentures rather than conventional dentures might be something to consider. Make sure you know your options and see a specialist trained in replacing missing teeth.

How Do Snap In Dentures Work?

Maintaining your teeth might be difficult since you may be more prone to tooth decay or losing them due to an accident or an injury sustained while participating in sports. You may rely on our skilled dentists and surgeons if you lose your teeth. We will make every effort to restore your beautiful and healthy smile.

1. Placement of dental implant

First, implants are surgically inserted into the jaw. The implants and the bone may need to connect for 2 to 6 months. For implants and adjustable snap on dentures to work, a process known as osseointegration is required.

2. Second Surgery to add extension

Depending on the patient, a second surgery may be needed to uncover implants and add the extension. They support prosthetic teeth. This step can be bypassed if the implant system contains extension attachments.

3. Preparation Of Full Denture

In a dental laboratory, full dentures are created to exactly fit the implants after the implant phase of the procedure is complete.The plated snap-in is more popular since it lowers gum friction.

4. Placement of Denture

Once the dentures are created, they will be initially fastened to your implants. You'll receive instructions on how to take them off, reattach, and take care of them. Get in touch with us to restore your sparkling smile.
