No matter how many teeth you\u2019ve lost, dental implants can help you enjoy a complete smile again. When an entire arch of teeth is missing, it can be replaced with snap-on dentures or All-on-4<\/a>. Which of these treatments is right for you?

What are Snap-On Dentures?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Snap-on dentures are dentures that rely on two to six dental implant posts for support. The dentures will normally stay anchored in place thanks to the posts, but you can take them out at any time for routine cleanings. Compared to traditional dentures, snap-on dentures offer better stability as well as chewing power that is almost on par with that of natural teeth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is All-on-4?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All-on-4 is a special procedure that involves anchoring an entire arch of replacement teeth to four dental implant posts. The four posts are placed in specific areas of the jaw at carefully chosen angles in order to give your replacement teeth the support they need. Unlike snap-on dentures, the prosthesis used for All-on-4 will remain in your mouth at all times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
