Why Choose Snap-in Dentures?

When a patient is missing all the teeth in the dental arch, the only economical solution available is full dentures. At Biltmore Dental Center, snap-in dentures may be suggested. This method uses dentures similar to traditional full dentures but with a fitting that allows them to snap into place with several dental implants placed along the bone of the jaw.
