Pros and Cons of Snap-In Dentures

- __Improves chewing ability__. You can eat harder and stickier food. [Conventional dentures](/en-us/advice-tips/types-of-dentures/full-complete "Conventional dentures") don’t put much pressure on the jawbone, so you end up biting with less force, which can affect your ability to chew. Implants used with snap-in dentures allow for a biting force that can be as much as 300 percent more than with standard dentures.
- __More secure and stable than conventional dentures__. Snap-in dentures are more stable than conventional dentures, so you won’t have to worry about them slipping out of place or becoming loose, making you more confident in speaking, smiling, and eating.
- __Easily removable for cleaning__. You can easily remove snap-in dentures at the end of the day and clean them like conventional dentures.
- __More comfortable than conventional dentures__. Snap-in dentures fit better and cause less friction on the gums, so they’re more comfortable than conventional dentures.
- __Helps preserve the jawbone__. Snap-in dentures help preserve the jawbone and prevent further bone loss.
- __Looks more natural than conventional dentures.__

Pros and Cons of Snap-In Dentures - Pros

Pros

- __The implants need to be surgically fitted__. The implants themselves need to be placed surgically. This may not be an option for those who have certain medical conditions, so talk to your dentist about your options.
- __Not all jawbones can take implants__. Implants need a jawbone for it to be anchored, and sometimes the shape of the jaw or amount of bone is not suitable for the implants needed for snap-in dentures. In some cases, additional bone graft may be required.
- __There is a recovery period after getting implants__. Like with any surgical procedure, you will have a period when you may feel discomfort for a few days after getting implants.
- __Can cost more than regular dentures__. Since snap-in dentures require implants, it can be more expensive than conventional dentures and may not be covered by your insurance.
- __Snap-in dentures may need replacement or maintenance__. Snap-in dentures can eventually break down, and attachments can become loose and need tightening over time.
