What is a Snap-On Denture?

In this video, Dr. Victor Apel, a renowned Melbourne, FL dentist, explains the option of having a removable set of upper and/or lower dentures that are retained using mini dental implants.

A lot of people have asked us, what is a snap-on denture? A snap-on denture is an overdenture that actually snaps in place on top of implants with small O-ring housings that help to secure it. There are other options to have that snap in place or what we call semi-removable. This here is a roundhouse that is fixed on top of the implants with these small O-rings so it also snaps in place. To know what’s best for you, give us a call, come in for a free consultation, and we’ll give you the option that’s best for you.
