For many patients across Kansas City, Overland Park, Leawood, and Olathe, gum disease can lead to loose teeth, bone loss, infection, and difficulty chewing. When teeth become too damaged to save, it can feel overwhelming especially if you’ve been told dentures are your only option.
At Gordon Dental Implants & Cosmetics in Leawood, KS, we offer a modern alternative to traditional dentures:
Snap-On Implant Dentures (also called implant overdentures or snap-in dentures).
These provide the stability of dental implants with the removable convenience of a denture, giving patients a smile that looks natural, feels secure, and restores confidence.
A Real Kansas City Patient’s Story
This Kansas City patient struggled for years with advanced periodontal disease. His teeth were loose, painful, and heavily infected. Chewing was difficult, and smiling in public had become uncomfortable. He wanted a solution that would restore his health and confidence, without traditional dentures.
After a full evaluation and 3D CBCT imaging, we recommended Snap-On Implant Dentures as the ideal treatment. His remaining teeth were removed, implants were placed to stabilize the denture, and he was fitted with a natural-looking, stable new smile.
Today, he can eat comfortably, speak confidently, and smile proudly pain-free.
What Are Snap-On Implant Dentures?
Snap-On Implant Dentures are full dentures that attach securely to 2–6 dental implants.
Unlike traditional dentures, they do not rely on suction, adhesives, or guesswork to stay in place.
Key Advantages:
| Snap-On Implant Dentures | Traditional Dentures |
| Click securely into place | Move, shift, and rub |
| Allow stronger chewing | Limited chewing power |
| Help preserve jawbone | Bone loss continues over time |
| Look natural and stable | Often appear bulky or artificial |
| No adhesives needed | Requires creams and glues |
| Why Snap-On Implant | Dentures Are Ideal for Gum Disease Patients |
Patients with advanced periodontal disease often experience bone loss.
Traditional dentures do nothing to stop that but dental implants help maintain bone and prevent facial collapse.
Snap-On dentures are especially beneficial when:
- Teeth are no longer savable due to infection or bone loss
- Traditional dentures feel loose or uncomfortable
- Patients want a secure, natural-feeling full-mouth solution
- Cost is a consideration (more affordable than All-on-4)
- They offer the strength and confidence of implant support while being more affordable than fixed full-arch zirconia bridges.
Cost of Snap-On Implant Dentures in Kansas City
- While costs vary based on each patient’s needs, most implant overdenture cases range from:
- $8,000–$18,000 per arch, depending on:
- Number of implants placed
- Bone grafting needs
- Final prosthetic materials
- We offer flexible, interest-free financing options to make treatment accessible.
