OverdenturesSnap-On Implant-Supported Dentures
- Snap-on overdentures are removable dentures that click onto 2-4 dental implants per arch, providing dramatically improved retention compared to conventional dentures.
How Do Overdentures Work?
Overdentures work by placing implants in the jawbone fitted with locator or ball attachments, which the denture's female components snap onto. The denture stays firmly in place during eating and speaking but can still be removed by the patient for cleaning.

How Much Do Overdentures Cost Compared to Canada?
