What Are Snap-On Dental Implants?
If your dentures slip, click, or limit what you eat, snap-on dental implants offer a secure alternative. Also called snap-in dentures or implant-retained dentures, these are removable dentures that attach to dental implants for a more stable fit. If you want to compare that with fixed teeth, see our Full Mouth Restoration page. At OP Implant Dental in Overland Park, Dr. Mancin has placed over 5,000 implants.
How the OP Implant Snap-On System Works?
Snap-on dental implants work by placing small titanium implant posts in the jawbone, where they heal and fuse with the bone to create a stable foundation. If you want a step-by-step look at the surgery and healing, see our Dental Implant Process page. Once healing is complete, Dr. Mancin connects locator or ball attachments to the implants, and the denture snaps securely into place over them.
How Many Implants Do You Need?
Most snap-on dental implant cases use two to four implants, depending on the amount of support needed. If you are also comparing removable options, see our Implant Overdentures page. Dr. Mancin may recommend two implants for a simpler, more budget-friendly solution, while four implants can provide added stability and a stronger overall foundation. The right number depends on your bone density, your arch, and your treatment goals.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Snap-On Dental Implants?
Good candidates for snap-on dental implants need enough bone support and healthy enough gums to hold implants securely in place. If bone loss or gum disease is present, Dr. Mancin uses your CT scan and exam to determine whether treatment, grafting, or another option makes the most sense first. If you need teeth removed first, see our Tooth Extraction page.
Snap-On Dental Implants vs. Fixed Permanent Teeth
Fixed zirconia teeth are permanently attached to the dental implants, providing the ultimate in stability and a natural feel. These permanent dentures cannot be removed by the patient and function very much like your remaining teeth.

Kelsie’s before-and-after video shows how snap-on dental implants can improve both appearance and comfort. Before treatment, she was having trouble sleeping and eating.
How Much Do Snap-On Dental Implants Cost?
The cost of snap-on dental implants depends on the number of implants needed, the type of denture used, and whether additional treatment like extractions or bone grafting is required. For more detailed pricing, see our Dental Service Prices page and our Dental Implant Cost Guide. At OP Implant Dental, patients receive a personalized treatment plan and cost breakdown after their exam and CT scan.

Our Patient Reviews
We are proud to share positive stories from our previous patients directly from our business profile.
I would definitely recommend if you're looking to get any dental work done.
His staff is professional and very knowledgeable, you can tell that they care about the patient and making sure to address any concern or questions you may have before or after your procedure. It is always a relief that after you have something done like this that you made the right decision to go with this office. I research Dr’s before I'm to have any type of surgery to make sure for the best outcome when you hear of people who have had not a good outcome.
One last comment about his reviews from other people, you can not give a office a negative or poor review because you couldn’t get financed, that’s not their responsibility, and doesn’t reflect on their ability to preform the dental work.
The rooms are all nice and clean, I highly recommend OC Implant Dental, it is all around the best dental office I have been to!
Paul P.
reconstruction with Dr Mancin.
I waited to review until I was finished
so I could give my honest opinion.
From the moment I walked through
the doors I was meant with warmth
and understanding.
I couldn't think more highly of Dr
Mancin. His attention to detail & the
pride he takes in his work is
exceptional. He's a perfectionist
about his work and was very caring
towards me. His skills as a surgeon
are unmatchable. I never had one
problem with my implants or bone
grafts.
His staff are exceptional as well. They
are very prideful, passionate and
caring.
The entire office is like a well oiled
machine!
I am so thankful Dr Mancin is who I
ended up choosing and I highly
recommend him and staff to anyone
looking for any dental need.
