What are Snap-On Dentures?

Snap-On Dentures: Locator dentures (also known as overdentures) are removable dentures that snap onto dental implants using small attachments called locator abutments. They offer more stability than traditional dentures while remaining removable for cleaning

Pros:

  • Improved stability over traditional dentures
  • Easier cleaning since the denture can be removed
  • Can be adjusted or relined over time as needed
  • Suitable for patients with limited bone volume

Cons:

  • Less natural feel than fixed restorations
  • Attachments wear out and require maintenance or replacement every 6 months (cost incurred)
  • Less chewing efficiency compared to Hybridge
  • Some movement many still occur while eating or speaking
  • Takes up more space in mouth
  • Longer process for implants to heal- will be in traditional dentures for the healing process
    • Estimated around 4 months
  • 2 surgical appointments needed
