Click Dentures

Click dentures (also called snap-in dentures) are a smart solution for rotten teeth or as an alternative to dentures without a palate plate. You can choose from snap-in dentures for your upper jaw, lower jaw or full snap-in dentures. There are different types of snap-in dentures and at Wellness Kliniek, we use the most progressive method: the all-on-4 snap-in dentures. 

Any remaining teeth are removed and implants are placed. These are custom designed based on a 3D scan. After temporary emergency dentures, allowing the implants to grow well, the permanent snap-in dentures are attached to the implants. The all-on-4 snap-in dentures no longer need to be removed. The screwed porcelain bridge is so strong that chewing food remains easy.

How long do snap-in dentures last? Depending on the method of care, you can in any case assume you will benefit from them for at least 10 years without the need for replacement of the prosthesis. With the emphasis on ‘at least’ because in most cases, snap-in dentures last a lifetime. However, it can differ from person to person and in some cases, it is better to replace the prosthesis after several years. Our consulting doctor can advise you personally about this before you undergo the treatment.

Snap-in dentures are anchored in the mouth by means of dental implants. The big advantage of this is that they remain very firmly secured, even if you chew hard foods. They are therefore a good alternative to traditional dentures.

Also, snap-in dentures are considered very comfortable. They are custom made and have no sharp edges that press against your gums. They don’t exert any pressure anyway (a feeling that is sometimes experienced with traditional dentures). In addition, your palate remains completely free with snap-in dentures, which also ensures you continue to have a maximum taste experience.

Of course, if you have healthy, natural teeth, there is no need for snap-in dentures, and if you only have a few bad teeth, a crown or dental implant may be a better option. But if (nearly all of) your teeth truly are in bad condition, snap-in dentures are an absolute must: comfortable and strong!

At Wellness Kliniek, we like to provide transparent and complete information, which means we also like to discuss the disadvantages of snap-in dentures. 

Some snap-in dentures need to be taken out and thoroughly cleaned every day. At Wellness Kliniek, we solve this drawback by opting for the all-on-4 technique. This means we use strong titanium screws to which we can permanently attach the snap-in dentures. Of course, good oral hygiene remains important, but this technique offers the best of the best in terms of ease of use. 

Furthermore, your mouth is prone to inflammation if the placement is not done in a safe manner. At Wellness Kliniek, we use experienced dentists who work according to the highest standards. This minimises the risk of complications.
