Restore Health and Beauty to Your Smile
Missing teeth can create inconveniences in your daily life and take a toll on your oral health. Our team of Triad dentists understands how frustrating losing teeth can be, which is why we provide a wide variety of dental implant options. If you’re missing all or most of your teeth, snap-in dentures may be the perfect solution to your oral health needs.
Read more below to learn all about snap-in dentures and what they can do for your smile and health.
What Are Snap-In Dentures?
Snap-in dentures, also known as implant-retained dentures, are a more stable and durable alternative to traditional dentures. Unlike implant-supported dentures, this restorative solution requires fewer dental implants, making it a more convenient and comfortable option. Best of all, snap-in dentures rarely require any bone grafting. Depending on your unique case, one of our Triad dentists can eliminate the need for a bone graft by securing two mini dental implants in sites with considerable bone mass.
Snap-In Denture Benefits
When comparing your tooth replacement options, there are many benefits associated with snap-in dentures. Some of those include:
- Extra Stability — Compared to traditional dentures, snap-in dentures won’t slip and slide around in your mouth for a stable restoration.
- Comfortable — Snap-in dentures don’t require any adjustments or adhesives.
- Cost-Effective — In the long run, this restoration option is affordable as it protects your health, smile, and self-esteem.
- Durable — Thanks to dental implants, your snap-in dentures help preserve the gums and your bone mass.
- Natural-Looking — Snap-in dentures give your smile a natural look for added confidence.
The Snap-In Denture Procedure
The entire snap-in denture process requires multiple visits to our dental office in the Triad of North Carolina. After your initial consultation, you’ll come in to have two mini dental implants placed in the most durable, strongest part of your jawbone. You’ll need to allow three to six months for your mouth to fully heal. During this time, your body will go through the natural process of osseointegration.
Once your mouth has fully healed, you’ll return to our Archdale office to have your custom restoration placed. We’ll make sure your snap-in dentures are the perfect fit and look. You’ll then walk out of our office with a new, fully functional smile.
