What are
Snap on Smile
With age, you will see many new problems in the oral cavity. This occurs due to various factors, including a weakened immune system and the lack of maintenance to ensure oral health. The diseases that develop will eventually lead to tooth decay and loss, reducing quality of life. There may be a need for a functional restoration of the teeth, using artificial teeth.
There are two types of dentures namely, full and partial:
A removable partial denture replaces one or part of missing teeth in the oral cavity. In the field of dentistry, the treatment of the patient’s teeth and mouth must have aesthetic (artistic) value. Appearance must be restored for any lost tooth structure while bringing it to its natural state. Dental studies are performed in addition to dental care.
Aesthetics involve color selection, face shape, patient’s profile, and total mouth harmonization. Although the main thing is artistry, dentistry is a combination of medicine and art. It is natural for a dentist to worry about aesthetics during each treatment. Treatment should restore the structure of the tooth, including its shape (cusps, gaps, contact points) and color. The goal is to restore the function of the teeth in chewing, biting, swallowing, speaking, and, of course, appearance.
Snap on Smile is a removable denture that is easy to use because it requires no tooth reduction or glue. Snap on Smile is strong, flexible and functional. The material itself is an acetyl thermoplastic resin capable of covering the tooth surface and holding firmly in place.

This type of restoration can be used for aesthetic rehabilitation without the need for preparation or alteration of the dental structure or the need for a cement abutment. The prosthesis known as Smile to Pressure or Snap on Smile is considered quite comfortable and can be removed by the patient. At the same time, the retention of this prosthesis is achieved by considering the anatomy of each existing tooth.
This prosthesis creates a good vertical dimension, with sufficient function and aesthetic appearance. It can be used for aesthetic rehabilitation and as a guide for implant prosthesis or fixed restoration to be performed. In addition, it can correct various cases, including diastema in the anterior teeth and teeth with a brown color due to the consumption of coffee and tea, cases of missing teeth
