Columbus Snap-On Smile

Snap-On Smile® is an exciting new product that is your most affordable cosmetic dentistry option available, and our Columbus dentists are here to tell you all about it!

Here's how it works

If you’re a candidate for Snap-On Smile®, we start by discussing the smile design and shade that you want. Then we take an impression of your teeth and send that impression to the laboratory in California that makes the Snap-On Smile®. At your next appointment, we fit the appliance. That’s all there is to it. All this for a fraction of the cost of porcelain veneers, or other types of smile makeovers.

There are limitations, of course. Your teeth will be a little larger and will feel thicker; and while the material this appliance is made of is quite tough, it only lasts two to five years. If you want a truly stunning smile, porcelain veneers is the way to go, but if you want something more affordable, the Snap-On Smile® really works okay. It’s made out of a crystallized acetyl resin. It’s flexible enough to snap on over your existing teeth, and tough enough that you can eat on it. There are a couple of examples pictured on the right. Our thanks to the DenMat laboratories for the use of their photographs. You can see that they will cover over misshapen, crooked, and discolored teeth, gaps in the smile, and even missing teeth. You snap it in when you are in public. To brush and floss, you snap it out. If you have a wedding, and are embarrassed about your teeth, Snap-On Smile® is a quick way to get a beautiful, new smile. If there is a class reunion, you can be ready, or if you simply want to look better every day, try this on. Later, you can have this temporary smile made permanent with LUMINEERS® or another type of porcelain veneers.
