A Snap-On Smile might be an ideal option for patients who have an important event coming up soon. Snap-On veneers are more of a temporary solution compared to other cosmetic dentistry procedures, but they are perfect for special occasions where you want to look your best for a short period of time.
Snap-On Smiles are custom-made resin trays that go over your teeth. Since they're thin, they feel as natural as your real teeth. The custom-made design makes them easy to insert and remove—it really is “a snap”!
They provide their patients with affordable smile makeovers. Snap-On teeth offer patients confidence, as they look similar to natural teeth.
It provides an attractive, natural-looking smile by fitting over your teeth. Removable veneers can cover stained or chipped teeth, as well as gaps or missing teeth.
These thin, durable, and high-tech dental resins last for years. Snap-On Smiles are a comfortable alternative to complex and invasive dental procedures.
In as little as two dental visits, you can have a brand-new smile.
Snap-On veneers are great for events, but they aren't suitable for everyday wear. Having a Snap-On Smile is a lot like real teeth, and to keep them looking their best, you should avoid things that could damage or stain them.
Snap-On Smiles are perfect options to cover up minor dental imperfections, so you can look fantastic on special occasions.
A Snap-On Smile procedure is one of the most affordable services we offer. Cost depends on several factors, including the size, shape, and style of the teeth. So come in today to learn what options are available for your budget.
The Snap-On Smile process occurs at a dentist's office. This procedure takes two visits and involves three easy steps:
Users can eat and drink wearing the device, and it’s easy to care for. However, it can be difficult to chew extra sticky foods like taffy and gum, so it is best to remove them before you enjoy these types of foods to avoid damaging the dental piece.
As with any dental appliance, certain care instructions should be followed to keep Snap-On Smile in the best condition possible and to extend its lifespan.
Similar to removable dentures or mouth guards, the appliance will need to be cleaned every time it is removed from your mouth. You can do this with the cleaning solution that comes with your original Snap-On Smile. In addition to the cleaning solution, our experienced dentists can provide you with step-by-step instructions on how to take care of the apparatus.
As well as thoroughly cleaning your appliance every day or each time you use it with the cleaning solution, you should also ensure that your natural teeth and gums are properly cleaned. It is especially important to keep your apparatus clean around your teeth and gums since food, bacteria, and debris can get trapped there, increasing your risk of decay and infection.
After removing the Snap-On Smile, brush, floss, and rinse your mouth well to provide a thorough cleaning. Before you re-insert the apparatus into your mouth, you should repeat your oral hygiene routine.
While the Snap-On smile is made of bright and durable dental resin material, you should try to avoid the same culprits that can stain natural teeth, such as coffee, red wine, and cigarettes, if you are worried about the replacement teeth looking stained.
Even though the Snap-On Smile does resist staining, the best way to completely avoid stains is to stick to a strict cleaning regimen so that residue does not accumulate and remain on the appliance.
● An affordable alternative to traditional veneers
● The tooth structure does not have to be removed before placement (painless)
● A removable device that is easy to clean
● Enhances the appearance of your smile fast
A Snap-On Smile is an affordable solution to enhancing your smile in a painless and non-invasive way.
A variety of people can benefit from the device, including those with:
● Stained teeth
● Slightly crooked teeth
● Missing teeth or gaps (fully healed)
● People who have cosmetic removable partial dentures and want to replace them with more comfortable and modern alternatives.
A Snap-on-Smile should not be used in place of dentures or other dental restorations that are needed for medical reasons.
While many benefit from the ease and convenience of the Snap-On Smile, it isn't suitable for everyone. Those who fall into the following categories are not recommended to get a Snap-On Smile:
● Cavities
● Gum disease
● Severely crooked teeth
● Jaw misalignment issues
● Severely damaged, chipped, or broken teeth
● Other oral conditions
In cases like these, you might need orthodontic care or dental restorations. A few of these procedures include braces, clear aligners, cavity fillings, gum disease treatment, and dental crowns.
The Snap-On Smile system is an affordable and convenient way to hide dental problems, fix gaps, and improve aesthetics. Although these devices are useful, they should never be used instead of necessary treatments such as braces or dental work.
While rare, the use of the Snap-On Smile could increase your risk of dental problems. These include:
As a result of the gap between snap-on teeth and your natural teeth, dental plaque can easily spread from tooth to tooth.
Your saliva doesn't wash away bacteria as quickly when you wear a Snap-On Smile. The bacteria that collects between your natural teeth and your snap-on teeth increases the risk of tooth decay.
Snap-On Smiles can sometimes feel uncomfortable when they are placed in the mouth. If the shape alters, Snap-On veneers can be difficult to insert and remove, leading to irritation and discomfort.
If you wear snap-on teeth, you cannot consume hot liquids. Heat can cause the device to soften. This can make snap-on teeth unusable during social events that serve hot beverages or soups.
As time passes, Snap-On Smiles start to wear down. They are designed to be a temporary solution, so these appliances are also not as strong, or durable as other more permanent dental restoration options.
A Snap-On Smile appliance should last over five years with proper care. This can vary depending on your oral health habits.
Snap-On Smiles are a relatively inexpensive, non-invasive, cosmetic dental treatment that is ideal for people who have stained teeth, slightly crooked teeth, missing teeth, or tooth gaps.
Snap-On Smiles are also a good alternative for patients who use cosmetic removable partial dentures and want a more comfortable and modern alternative.
If you are not wanting to commit to a more invasive dental option, or want to simply try something out before getting a set of permanent veneers, a Snap-On Smile might be worth it for you and comes with very little risk since it is non-invasive.
