Good Candidates for a Snap-On Smile
A Snap-On Smile covers teeth to give people an attractive, natural-looking smile. This device is a great alternative for people who want to improve their smile but do not want to undergo complex and invasive dental procedures. They are an excellent choice for people with gaps, misaligned, missing, or stained teeth. Anyone with cosmetic removable partial dentures and wants a more comfortable and modern alternative can also benefit from a Snap-On Smile.
Snap-On Smiles are not right for everyone. People who have the following are not good candidates:
- Broken teeth
- Cavities
- Chipped teeth
- Gum disease
- Other oral problems
- Severely crooked teeth
“They are an excellent choice for people with gaps, misaligned, missing, or stained teeth.”
Benefits of Snap-On Smile
The largest benefit of a Snap-On Smile is a more attractive smile. A smile is often one of the first things people notice in others. For those with missing or chipped teeth, fillings, or discoloration, smiling can be something they avoid or hide. A Snap-On Smile can give people an open, friendly smile that positively affects their personal and professional life.
Another benefit of this device is that it is a non-invasive procedure. While other treatment alternatives involve removing the enamel, Snap-On Smiles fit over natural teeth without the need for alteration. Multiple orthodontic treatments can take years to complete. They can produce dramatic results in as little as two appointments.

The Waiting Period for Receiving Snap-On Smile
The process of receiving a Snap-On Smile should only take a few weeks. Patients start the treatment process by having a consultation where our team will assess their dental history and current status to determine if Snap-On Smile is a viable option. Then we will take an impression of the patient's mouth and teeth.
We may talk to the patient about the style and shade of the dental appliance before sending the impressions to a dental lab. After two or three weeks, the Snap-On Smile is ready from the lab. Patients will come into the dentist's office to try on the device. We will use this appointment to make any adjustments, offer care instructions, and how the patient how to snap the appliance on and off.

Lifestyle Changes for Long-Term Maintenance
With proper care and maintenance, a Snap-On Smile should last several years. We recommend removing the device at night and storing it in a protective case. Wearers will have to adjust their diet. They should avoid food and drinks that can stain, including beverages such as coffee, tea, and red wine and food such as blueberries.
It is also best to avoid sticky, chewy foods, including ice, and biting hard objects. Although a Snap-On Smile consists of a sturdy resin, it can crack if sufficient force is applied. A Snap-On Smile wearer should clean their device after every time they remove it. Soaking the device and gently brushing it will remove debris and bacteria so that people can maintain healthy smiles.

Caring for Snap-On Smile
Caring for a Snap-On Smile is easy with the help of Snap-On Smile's unique cleaning solution. Patients should use this cleanser daily. A 15-minute soak in the solution helps remove stains such as tea and coffee, as well as plaque buildup. The American Dental Association also recommends that people avoid using toothpaste or household cleaners to clean their removable appliances. Toothpaste can be abrasive and damage the polish.
It is also important to thoroughly rinse the appliance to remove any food particles. Patients should handle their device carefully to avoid chipping and breaking dental appliances. Fill the sink with water and place a folded towel over the edges while cleaning. These precautions offer a dropped device a soft place to land.
