Dunedin's choice for Snap-In Dentures
Snap-in dentures are something worth smiling about. If you need a complete set of dentures but don’t want to sacrifice natural teeth’ appearance, feel, and stability, snap-in dentures may work best with your lifestyle. Snap-in dentures are reliable, affordable, and versatile, which might make this type of tooth replacement the perfect choice for you!
Are Snap-In Dentures Right For Me?
Snap-in dentures (or implant-supported overdentures) are gaining popularity due to their convenience, durability, and superior aesthetics. When it comes to snap-in dentures, specific qualifications need to be met to ensure optimal results. The first step is determining if the individual has sufficient bone density in their jaw to support the denture’s implant. Additional procedures (like bone grafting) may be necessary to provide enough support if insufficient bone exists.
Those who have uncontrolled diabetes or are undergoing radiation therapy may not be eligible for the procedure due to the potential for complications. Additionally, smokers may be at risk for implant failure and may not be ideal candidates. Overall, it is essential to consult with a dental professional to determine if implant overdentures suit your specific needs.
What To Expect
Say goodbye to uncomfortable and unstable dentures! Snap-in dentures provide a new level of stability and versatility. By placing dental implants in your jawbone, your dentures stay securely in place for a more comfortable fit. The number of implants needed depends on your needs and budget, but typically two to four are used per jaw. The result is an implant-supported or retained denture that can be removable or permanently fixed. Enjoy the freedom and confidence that comes with snap-in dentures.
Benefits of Snap-In Dentures
Snap-in dentures can bring a myriad of benefits to those looking for a comfortable, stable tooth replacement solution:
- Convenient: With these innovative dentures, you can finally say goodbye to the inconvenience of traditional dental implants and their discomfort.
- Bespoke Appearances: The snap-in dentures are custom-made for each patient, making them a perfect fit and allowing for greater ease of use.
- Bone and Gum Retention: Aside from a more natural appearance, implant overdentures can prevent gum and bone loss.
- Improve Daily Function: Snap-in dentures can improve speech and chewing functionality, giving you the confidence you deserve.
Make the Most of Your Snap-In Dentures
Like any dental prosthesis, snap-in dentures require maintenance and care to keep them in good condition. One crucial step is regularly cleaning the dentures with a gentle toothbrush and warm water to remove food or debris. Also, avoid using harsh cleansers or hot water, which can damage and warp the dentures. Finally, see your dentist regularly to check the fit of your snap-in dentures and overall oral health. With proper care, these appliances can provide a comfortable and stable solution for those with missing teeth.
