If you are an existing denture wearer or someone who is transitioning to wearing dentures and want to secure your dentures better but still want the comfort of removing and cleaning them then snap on implants are an excellent option.

Screws or dental implants get placed in your jawbone to hold these particular types of dentures in place. The result is a set of dentures that are more versatile and stable. Usually, up to four implants are used in both of your jaws. More can be used depending on your requirements and budget. Once these are set in place, an over denture can be placed on top. This appliance can either be fixed permanently or removable so it can be cleaned.

The Benefits of Snap On Implants in Ottawa

These are more stable than conventional dentures. The traditional types are designed to be removed daily. Snap-on implants are much less likely to become loose when you are speaking.
They also improve your ability to enjoy the foods you love. That includes anything sticky and hard to chew.
Snap on dentures fit better and are more comfortable. There is less friction on your gums.

Many patients consider the more natural looking. Finally, more of your jawbone is preserved and bone loss is prevented with this type of appliance.

By placing dental implants and utilizing them as posts the denture can anchor to them to increase the fit function and comfort of conventional dentures. The dentures snap on the implants removing the need for denture creams and adhesives increasing stability and reducing food from going underneath the dentures but still allowing patients to remove their dentures for ease of cleaning.

Remember, maintaining your snap on implants in Ottawa will make sure that you get the most from this investment. You’ll need to brush the roof of your mouth as well as your gums and tongue every day using a soft bristled toothbrush before you where these dentures.

Rinse them to remove any debris and food. You can also use a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft bristled toothbrush to clean the dentures themselves.
