If your denture shifts when you talk or eat, implant attachments may add the hold it lacks. Patients from across Winnipeg can ask whether this option suits them.
Let's find a time
A conventional denture rests on your oral tissues, so its hold relies on your anatomy, its fit, your saliva and the muscle control you have built up. A snap-in denture adds planned attachments on dental implants, which give it extra resistance to lifting and sliding.
Wherever in the city you live, the comparison starts the same way at our clinic: with your current denture and what bothers you about it. An assessment then shows whether implant-retained treatment is appropriate for your mouth and health.
Explore snap-in dentures
Attachments can reduce the movement many wearers notice with a denture supported by tissue alone.
You still take this appliance out yourself, which keeps it different from a fixed restoration.
Bring your list of frustrations and we can weigh the two designs against your own situation.
Both appliances replace teeth and both come out of your mouth. The difference lies in what holds them there, and that difference shapes treatment and upkeep.
This design sits on the gums and the ridges beneath them, without any implant connection.
Three parts cooperate here: implants in the jaw, attachments, and a removable denture shaped for your bite and smile.
Neither design is right for everyone. Bone, gum health, medical history, smoking, bite and hand dexterity all affect the recommendation.
The implants need time to heal before your denture connects to them. How many implants you need, and how long each stage takes, depends on your plan.
Request your visitClinical and medical assessment comes first, along with three-dimensional imaging. Those findings and your restorative goals guide where implants could go and how the attachments are designed.
The implants are placed in the jaw, then left to integrate for the time your clinical plan calls for.
Records capture your bite, tooth position and how the denture relates to the healed implants. Depending on its condition, your present denture may be adapted, or a new one made.
We adjust the retention, look for pressure areas and teach you how to take the denture out correctly.
Seeing your current denture helps us understand its fit, strength and tooth position. Try to notice when it moves during the week before you come in, since those details make the conversation more useful.
Ask about appointment length and estimated costs when you book, as both vary with the plan recommended.
Where your assessment and later visits take place.
Moving from a denture to implant treatment is a bigger decision than replacing an appliance. Raise whatever is on your mind, whether that is surgery, healing or how the snap feels.
We can walk you through placement, healing and fitting before you decide anything.
Areas that rub under your present denture are useful to know about, so please point them out.
You are free to take the information away and think about it before moving forward.
After your fitting
A snap-in denture asks for regular attention from you and from us. Knowing that from the start makes the comparison with a conventional denture a fair one.
Each day you clean the denture and its attachment housings, plus the implants and gums in your mouth, using the tools we recommend.
Retention inserts wear with use and may occasionally need replacing, at a rate that varies with use and alignment.
Scheduled checks cover the denture, attachments, implants, gums and bite, so a small concern can be found before it grows.
Is food getting trapped, or does the snap seem weaker? Let us know.

Often it can, because the attachments resist lifting and sliding. How much difference you notice depends on your anatomy, your bite and the design chosen, so we would look at your situation first.
No, you take it out yourself for cleaning. We will also tell you whether yours should come out while you sleep, since that advice depends on your appliance, implants and gums.
There is no fixed number. It depends on which arch is being treated, your bone and anatomy, the denture design and what you hope to achieve, and imaging is required to plan it.
They are different. A fixed full-arch restoration has its own design, cleaning routine and treatment pathway, whereas a snap-in denture is removed by you and rests partly on your oral tissues.
Costs vary with the number of implants, the denture work and the rest of your plan, so an estimate has to follow an assessment. Whether any of it is covered depends on your plan and the services involved.
An assessment may point toward a different solution. These pages explain some of the alternatives and the implant care behind this one.
