Snap-in Implant Dentures in Childersburg

Implant-Retained Dentures Made for YOU

Dentures are a great way to replace missing teeth and have a beautiful smile. However, they can be uncomfortable and inconvenient to wear if they don’t fit properly or are not secured properly by the jawbone. This is where snap-in implant dentures come into play!

Snap-in dentures use dental implants, which work as an anchor to help secure the denture in place. This helps prevent slipping or falling out while wearing them, making them much more comfortable and secure than traditional dentures.

Snap-In vs. Traditional Dentures

There are many differences between snap-in vs. traditional dentures. For starters, snap-in dentures are secured to the mouth via implants while traditional dentures stay in place by “suction” alone.

Listed below is a quick glance at some of the ways that the two types of dentures vary.

All in all, both have their differences, but we do offer both options in our practice.

Process for Snap-In Implant Dentures

Consultation

The first step is a consultation. During this time, we will perform x-rays, go over expectations, and discuss costs before proceeding. After the consultation, we will then schedule the implant procedure at a later date.

Implant Procedure

On the day of the procedure, we will carefully insert the implants into your jawbone to give your dentures a “root” to hold onto. You will need to wait anywhere from 4-6 months to enable your implants to integrate into your jawbone. In the meantime, you will wear a traditional denture.

Snap-In Dentures

After you’ve completely healed and implants are fully integrated, we will place the “snaps” into your dentures. Congratulations on your new “teeth!”
