If you want to improve the appearance of your smile, you can get Snap-On Smile® — a quick and painless alternative to extensive treatments that may fix numerous smile flaws. This smile makeover option is excellent for patients who want a less intrusive and more economical way to enhance their smile. Concerns about your smile, such as crooked, gapped, discolored, or missing teeth, can make you feel self-conscious and make it difficult to accomplish simple tasks like eating and speaking.
The following are cases in which a dentist might recommend getting Snap-On Smile to a patient:
Diastema refers to open gaps between the two front center teeth. It is caused by an imbalance in the size of the teeth and the jaw, which can arise naturally or result from tooth loss. Diastema can be corrected by replacing the worn natural crown of the tooth with an artificial crown or by moving the teeth with an orthodontic device. However, this treatment can take many months. Snap-On Smile is a considerably less intrusive, time-saving, and affordable alternative to consider, with equally remarkable results.
Several factors can lead to crooked teeth. Tooth crowding happens when there is insufficient space for all permanent teeth to emerge. Teeth straightening typically happens during the pre-teen or teenage years when the mouth and jaw are still developing. However, many patients who did not undergo orthodontic treatment as a child or adolescent would have to endure extensive treatment as adults to realign their teeth. Snap-On smile may be a faster option.
Many individuals dread smiling because they have severely stained or discolored teeth. In the past, the only alternatives for patients with discolored teeth were intrusive procedures like veneers, crowns, and bonding since teeth bleaching is ineffective. The dentist may recommend Snap-On Smile to improve the smile’s color.
Bruxism is the medical term for teeth grinding or clenching. While some people engage in the habit during the day, it is more common at night when they are sleeping. Years of bruxism may severely wear down teeth, and the standard treatment is to replace the tooth’s damaged natural crown with artificial crowns. The dental professional may make a mouthguard to wear at night to safeguard the new crowns. Patients with bruxism can enjoy a full, attractive smile while also preventing future damage with Snap-On Smile.
A lost tooth or teeth can be replaced in three common ways: fixed bridge, dental implant, or dentures. The Snap-on Smile is detachable, just like dentures, but it changes the smile while preserving the natural teeth since the device is fitted over them.
It does not cover the palate or hurt the gum tissue or, giving it a natural appearance and feel. With Snap-On Smile, the patient and dentist may pick from various colors and shapes, giving them a variety of options to further enhance a patient’s smile with this custom-fitted device.
